Abstract
A feedthrough component includes a feedthrough ferrule including a ferrule body extending from a proximal end to a distal end along a longitudinal axis of the feedthrough ferrule and a ferrule passageway extending through the ferrule body and defined by a plurality of sidewalls. The ferrule passageway includes a proximal passage portion defined by one or more proximal sidewalls of the plurality of sidewalls and extending along the longitudinal axis, a distal passage portion defined by one or more distal sidewalls and extending along the longitudinal axis, and a beveled ledge disposed between the proximal passage portion and the distal passage portion and extending from the one or more distal sidewalls toward the longitudinal axis of the feedthrough ferrule. The beveled ledge includes a beveled surface extending toward the longitudinal axis, where a normal to the beveled surface intersects the longitudinal axis.
