brake recall kit...id this part please

Im laying out the parts to do my rear disc brake rec all. The problem Im having is that I dont know where this part goes. I didnt pull anythng off the old one that looks like this: therefore, i dont know where it goes. There are (2) of them in the kit, one for each side im assuming.

Line up the tabs on the inside of the ring with the corresponding gaps in the face of the piston, and twist so that the tabs become trapped in the groove around the end of the piston, then squeeze the pad into the clips.
