The C rings found in the trachea are made of hyaline cartridge. There are sixteen to twenty in number. Each forms a semicircular ring of hyaline cartilage, which occupies the anterior two-thirds of the trachea. The posterior one-third is filled in fibrous tissue and smooth muscle fibers.
These rings allow the trachea to slightly collapse to allow food to pass down the esophagus.

trachea
The function of cartilage in the bronchus is to hold the soft tissue open so that air may pass through. The cartilage in the bronchus are C-shaped rings.
Trachea is bounded by c-shaped ring to provide it support and flexibility
The C-shaped cartilage rings surrounding the trachea act as a support system, and allow the trachea to remain opened and prevent collapse with normal body movements.
The trachea is supported by C-shaped rings of cartilage. The point at which there is no cartilage is where the trachea is in contact with the oesophagus. As a large bolus of food passes down the oesophagus the elastic walls expand to accommodate it. This is made possible by the absence of cartilage on the trachea. However, the trachea is prevented from collapsing due to the supporting cartilage around the rest of it.
The trachea is a tube made of c-shaped rings of cartilage. This structure gives it flexible but strong support.

You are thinking of the trachea, or windpipe, though it is not entirely made of cartilage.
cartilage
The trachea is a firm cartilaginous tube and is a self supporting structure
The trachea is made of C shaped rings of cartilage, this maintains the shape of the trachea.
Tracheal rings in cats are in the form of a c shape. A cats tracheal rings are made up of multiple layers of cartilage.

trachea is also called wind pipe.it is common passage for both food and air.it is kept open by rings.these are of specialised rings which are of "c" shaped .these are made up of cartilage.so, trachea is kept open by 'c' shaped specialised cartilagenous rings. these are made up of special type of cartilage called fibrous cartilage
