<p>A braided filamentary sealing element (30) is provided for use between components (20,23) in a gas turbine engine or other machine where a clearance space (S) is provided between the components (20,23). The sealing element (30) is adapted to be carried on one component (23). The sealing element (30) includes an integral three dimensionally braided filamentary sealing surface to effect a fluid sealing action between the components (20,23). The sealing element (30) may also include a plurality of three dimensionally braided flexible filaments (60) having a free length sufficient to engage the other of the components to effect a fluid sealing action between the components (20,23).</p> |
