Disengagement of the C-clip in turbine shroud assemblies is prevented by providing a C-clip retainer. The shroud assembly includes a shroud support having a hook and at least one shroud having a mounting flange. A C-clip overlaps the hook and the mounting flange to clamp the shroud to the shroud support, and the retainer is secured to the shroud support and located so as to engage the C-clip. The retainer engages the C-clip in such a manner so as to limit aft axial movement of the C-clip, thereby eliminating C-clip back-off.
