Abstract
The gas turbine engine includes a casing assembly located proximate a turbine section of the gas turbine engine, and a tangential on-board injector (TOBI) having a body defining a plurality of air passages extending in a radial direction, the plurality of air passages circumferentially distributed and directing cooling air toward a turbine rotor of the turbine section of the gas turbine engine. An interference fit is provided between a face of the body and a face of a member of the casing assembly, the interference fit defining a fastener-free engagement between the bearing housing and the TOBI to prevent relative movement between the member of the casing and the TOBI.
