Original Abstract Submitted
A system can be used to control shock applied to a downhole tool. The system can include an internal component, an outer component, and a wedge pin. The internal component can be positioned in the downhole tool. The internal component can include an axial shoulder and an angled seating surface. The outer component can be positioned in the downhole tool. The outer component can include (i) an opening sized to receive a preload cap, and (ii) a flange positionable to contact the axial shoulder. The wedge pin can be positioned in the opening and abutting the angled seating surface to apply a preload to the internal component and the outer component in response to the preload cap being positioned in the opening.
