Abstract

One embodiment of the present subject matter includes a system (700) which includes a device (701) including a first body (702) which is hermetically sealed, a first terminal (706) coupled to the first body, a second body (704) which is part of the device and which is hermetically sealed, a second terminal (708) coupled to the second body, a threaded fastener (712) coupling the first terminal and the second terminal and a torque wrench (716) matable to the threaded fastener, the torque wrench including a tightening clutch (604) and a loosening clutch (608), the tightening clutch adapted to slip at a first torque, the loosening clutch adapted to slip at a second torque other than the first torque. A method of storing an implantable device (701) is also subject matter.
