A slot lock ring assembly capable of repeated radial expansion and contraction without sustaining permanent deformation and expansion to a load bearing state comprising: a solid metal ring having a toothed profile on one diameter and a tapered actuating profile on the opposite diameter, a top edge and a bottom edge; a spaced group of cuts that allow repeated radial expansion and contraction of the solid metal ring without sustaining permanent deformation, wherein the cuts are made in an alternating pattern, of a first cut starting on the top edge followed by a second cut starting on the bottom edge, and each group of cuts is spaced apart 10 to 40 degrees.
