Abstract
A rotating member such as a turbine disk is provided with an axially extending retaining means such as a ring having a plurality of D-shaped, open-ended slots formed about an edge thereof. A collar embracing a generally radially extending tube is received within each contoured slot and a pair of laterally extending lips formed upon each collar receive and engage the ring therebetween, thereby limiting radial movement of the collar. A circumferentially extending groove about the inner circumference of the ring intersects each groove and receives a split locking ring to limit axial movement of the collars and tubes.
