Abstract (en)

A spacer (62C) for a gas turbine engine includes a rotor ring (84) defined along an axis of rotation. The rotor ring (84) defines a forward circumferential flange (92) which defines a first thickness and an aft circumferential flange (94) which defines a second thickness, the first thickness different than the second thickness. A plurality of core gas path seals (82) which extend from the rotor ring (84) opposite the flanges (92, 94).
