Disclosed is an assembly for hermetically sealing lightwave component packages and aligning optical fibers. The fiber is fed through a tube and soldered at one end. The tube is inserted through a flange which is attached to the component package housing and which includes a threaded outside surface. A ring comprising a suitable material, such as gold, is provided between the end of the flange and a stop portion around the outside of the tube. A cap with a threaded portion is inserted over the stop and screwed onto the flange so that the pressure from the cap and restraint from the flange on the gold ring form an hermetic seal.
