Summary: | The invention relates to a gap seal (
6
)for sealing a gap (
3
) between two adjacent components (
1,2
), in particular in turbo machines. A sealing body (
7
) has a band (
18
) with a cross-section that is bent in such a way that two contact zones (
8
) formed on it abut with a preloan against two facing sealing surfaces (
9
) of components (
1,2
). The contact zones (
8
) are able to deflect resiliently when the distance between the sealing surfaces (
9
) is reduced. A support zone (
11
) formed between the contact zones (
8
) is supported on a step (
10
) vertically to the spring movement. The step (
10
) is formed on one of the components (
2
) and projects from its sealing surface (
9
) towards the sealing surface (
9
) of the other component (
1
). |
