If you have a ringless bell, then avoid using stands or pegs where the peg is effectively wedged inside with no other support.

Pegs that only fit inside the bell with no other means of support will apply outward pressure and that will risk stress fractures if the instrument is placed onto them too heavily. The risks are much lower with bells fitted with a bell ring provided it isn't loose.

The ideal clarinet (oboe and flute) stand will have a flat base for the bell to sit on so the weight of the instrument is fully supported and also with the peg to fit loosely within the bell to prevent the instrument from falling over.
