Abstract
A downhole tool may include a first end collar configured to be positioned at least partially around a tubular, a second end collar configured to be positioned at least partially around the tubular, a plurality of elongate members extending between and connected to the first and second end collars, and a dissolvable retention member coupled to the second end collar. The dissolvable retention member is configured to maintain a position of the second end collar relative to the first end collar until the dissolvable retention member at least partially dissolves in a downhole fluid. When the dissolvable retention member at least partially dissolves, the second end collar is configured to move with respect to the first end collar, and the plurality of elongate members expand radially outwards.
