Abstract
A system and method to actuate a downhole tool, where the tool can include a body, a closure member and a degradable actuation ring. A profile of the actuation ring can be configured to engage an actuation tool (e.g. shifting tool, ball drop, dart, plug, etc.) used to displace the activation ring via the engagement and thereby displacing the closure member to a different position. The degradable actuation ring can be degraded by an agent downhole to degrade and/or remove the actuation ring from the downhole tool thereby providing an increased clearance through the tool.
