Are there any advantages of the product?
This positioning collar reduces unwanted vibration and enhances the stability of 3D printers during long-term continuous operation for improved print quality. The durable construction helps reduce wear on rods and bearings, potentially extending the service life of your equipment.
How to use it?
Slide the shaft ring onto the smooth rod and position it at the desired location. Tighten the set screw using the included hex key to secure the lock collar in place. Ensure it is tightly fixed to effectively restrict the axial movement of the shaft and achieve stable print head positioning.
