ABSTRACT:
A split retaining ring for locking a separable tire bead flange on a wheel rim has inboard and outboard facing portions and two circumferentially aligned terminal ends, each terminal end characterized by an outboard facing tab having a drilled-through bore. A buckle member having a pair of apertures is mounted on the retaining ring such that each tab passes through a respective aperture and the buckle functions to maintain the terminal ends of the retaining ring in a specific orientation when it is mounted on a wheel rim. A wire fastener is positioned through each drilled bore in a tab to retain the buckle member on the split retaining ring.
