A distal end portion of a medical device may comprise: a first portion having a groove around a perimeter of an outer surface of the first portion; a cover disposed around the outer surface of the first portion, and disposed within the groove; and a second portion having a tab protruding radially inward from an inner surface of the second portion. The tab may be received within the groove, radially outward of the cover.

Coupling of medical device components

Numerous devices are described. One device may comprise: a handle including a wire attachment portion; an actuator movably mounted to the handle, the actuator including a reaction chamber; a plunger movably mounted to the actuator, the plunger including a distal stop with a sheath attachment portion, and a proximal stop located in the reaction chamber; a resilient element including a distal end attached to the proximal stop, and a proximal end movable relative to plunger; and a force reduction element located in the reaction chamber between the resilient element and a reaction surface in the cavity. The resilient element may bias the plunger distally relative to the actuator, and be compressed when a proximally-directed force is applied to the plunger. The force reduction element may dissipate a portion of the proximally-directed force. Related devices and methods are also described.
