Introduction
This document is to provide a guide on where to inspect rims, what defect types to look for, and what methods to
inspect the rims.
Visual inspections should be done daily to externally visible parts of the rim prior to machine operation. A full
visual inspection of the rim and the rims components should also be performed anytime a tire is removed from a
rim. More thorough non-destructive inspections of the rim base and the rim components can be done as needed.
Visual inspections should look for changes to the appearance of the rim. The rim should be cleaned of all
accumulated debris prior to inspection. The appearance of cracks, new sources of corrosion, deformation, and
polished surfaces are signs of rim wear. Any rim that shows signs of cracking should immediately require the
deflation of the wheel assembly and removal of the suspect rim. Signs of cracking could present a significant
and severe safety hazard. Any observations involving corrosion, deformation, or polishing of rim components
should be documented and tracked to ensure that further changes do not impact the function of the rim.
Lock rings should also be inspected when installed to verify that there is an obvious gap between the ends. If the
lock ring ends are touching, the tire should immediately be deflated and the lock ring removed and replaced.
Prior to mounting, any lock ring that is intended for use should be inspected to ensure that the ends overlap
while in a free state. If the ends do not overlap, the lock ring is "sprung" and is no longer fit for service. A
sprung lock ring presents a significant and severe safety hazard.

Non-destructive testing can include magnetic particle, ultrasonic, and dye penetration. These tests are more time
consuming and costly, but can detect defects that standard visual inspections cannot. These tests can be
performed as needed. If a rim is determined to be unfit for service, the rim should be removed from the machine
and clearly marked for disposal.
Rims should not be repaired or modified with welds. Never weld on a wheel with the tire still on the rim.
Damaged or worn components should be replaced with Caterpillar replacement parts.
The figures on the following pages show the various components of a rim, what defects to look for, where to
inspect, and the method for inspection.

Note: Attention: Do not use sprung lock rings. Lock ring ends should overlap when in a free state. Lock rings
must have visible gap between ends only when mounted.
