Abstract
A runner assembly for a circumferential seal assembly includes a runner defined about an axis. The runner has an inwardly extending runner mounting flange. A radially flexible clamp is engaged with the inwardly extending mounting flange. An axial spring is trapped between an axial retainer and the runner. The runner, the radially flexible clamp, the axial spring, and the axial retainer are co-rotatable about the axis. The axial retainer is radially inline with the runner and spaced from a radially inner surface of the runner such that there is a radial gap between the axial retainer and the radially inner surface of the runner permitting radial movement of the runner.
