A sealing device for restricting leakage across the stages of an axial compressor through the clearances around the root fittings of replaceable blades. A compliant dished annulus is attached on the high pressure side of each compressor stage at its inside radius. The combination of centrifugal force and pressure differential across each compressor stage deforms the sealing device against the blade root fittings thereby restricting the leakage.
