Claim 17:
18. A method for assembling a downhole tool that has slip rings with uniform breaking parts, the method comprising:
providing a push ring comprising a downstream end with a first profile that is non-flat relative to a central longitudinal axis of the downhole tool;
providing a first slip ring comprising an upstream end with a second profile that is non-flat relative to the central longitudinal axis of the downhole tool and complementary to the first profile;
placing the first slip ring adjacent to the push ring, such that engagement of the first profile and the second profile prevents relative rotation of the push ring and the first slip ring;
placing a first wedge adjacent to the first slip ring, the first wedge being configured to radially push the first slip ring and separate the first slip ring into individual parts; and
placing a sealing element next to the first wedge, wherein the sealing element is configured to seal the well.
