How to Support Shafts with Rubber Shaft Collars

Shafts can fall out of place or alignment very easily if they aren't supported properly. You can make a shaft more secure and prevent it from falling out of place by putting a Rubber Shaft Collar before the end of it. You can then connect the shaft to a support structure with the shaft collar positioned against it. That will allow the shaft to turn but will prevent it from wobbling or falling out.
