Abstract
A wellbore system includes a running tool and a cartridge. The running tool includes a slot extending radially into the running tool and a load shoulder. The cartridge is configured to couple to the running tool and circumferentially surrounds the running tool about a tool axis. The cartridge includes an opening extending radially into the cartridge, a coupling slot arranged along an outer profile of the cartridge, and a contact face. The cartridge is positioned on the load shoulder such that the load shoulder blocks axial downward movement of the cartridge along the tool axis and the cartridge is coupled to the running tool via one or more keys extending into both the opening and the slot.
