ABSTRACT:
A wear cover for use on a gas turbine transition duct support bracket is disclosed. The wear cover, which is manufactured from a single piece of sheet metal, does not require complex manufacturing processes or tools, thereby reducing component cost. The wear cover comprises first and second leg portions substantially parallel to each other and each generally perpendicular to a third leg portion. Each of the leg portions serve to protect a surface of a support bracket finger from excessive wear associated with frictional contact with mounting blocks of a transition duct. The wear cover is designed to slip onto a support bracket finger through a first opening and is fixed to the finger by a means such as welding.
