Sex toy selection guide part 3: penis rings

What is their idea and where could you start if you were interested in trying out the tires yourself or with a partner?

Fun and useful

Penis rings can be used both as a tool and for pleasure.

As an aid, the purpose of a penis ring is to strengthen an erection and/or help maintain it. The penis ring helps blood to be pumped more strongly into the shaft of the penis and to stay in the penis better, which increases the durability of the erection.

The most popular for recreational use are vibrating cock rings with a vibrating mechanism, but regular cock rings can also be a lot of fun. The nerve endings in the penis are better exposed when the ring supports an erection. This increases the sensitivity of the penis and makes the touch feel stronger.

One, two or more penis rings?

In addition to the base of the penis, a ring of the appropriate size can also be placed around the testicles and/or glans. Multiple rings can also be combined for use at the same time.

For example, there are sets of three different sized cock rings, the smallest designed to be worn around the shaft of the penis, the medium one around the testicles, and the largest one around both the penis and testicles. You can also try the small ring around the glans.

Another option is figure-eight ring combinations made up of two rings. They are intended to be used on the shaft of the penis and around the testicles.

Durability and strength for erection with a penis ring

When worn around the penis, a penis ring increases the durability of an erection. We therefore recommend always using a penis ring when using a penis pump and sliding it into place immediately after pumping. Of course, a penis ring also works on its own if there is no problem getting an erection.

A testicle ring, i.e. a ring worn around the testicles, itself increases the strength of an erection. Using a testicle ring and a penis ring at the same time strengthens the effect of both rings.

Material for variety and impact

The material of penis rings can be anything from a soft and extremely flexible material that stretches around your wrist to a completely inflexible metal.

Many penis owners find stretchy rings easy to approach and comfortable to use. They also have the advantage that, thanks to the flexibility of the material, they fit a wider range of people. Of course, there are also differences between stretchy rings in terms of flexibility, size, and other features.

The stiffer the material, the better the penis ring will support an erection. The most flexible rings are generally the best for non-auxiliary use.

Width matters

Penis rings vary in width from a thin ring resembling a hair band to donut-shaped rings that cover the shaft of the penis by up to several centimeters. There are also ring sets where a very wide and covering ring is made up of two or even five uniform thinner rings.

Wider tires often compress more than thinner ones, but the width distributes the tire pressure over a wider area. Many people find them comfortable to use.

Very wide, donut-shaped rings can also be helpful, for example, when a partner experiences pain during intercourse or discomfort when the penis is inserted deep into the vagina. The ring slightly limits the depth of penetration and can bring comfort to both partners during sex.

Size matters

A non-elastic or slightly elastic penis ring must be chosen to fit your own or your partner's measurements. They are often sold in sets, so you can choose the ring that suits your purpose and measurements from the different sizes.

Flexible tires also come in different circumferences. The most slender tires, despite their flexibility, may not feel comfortable to use if they are too tight for the user. However, they can be comfortably firm for support.

Adjustable penis rings are handy because they can be tightened to fit your exact measurements. These rings are usually made of inelastic material. The tightening method and the thickness of the material vary by product. Tightenable rings are also available with one or more tightening links, i.e. only around the penis or testicles or both.

On, pull!

A penis ring made of stretchy material can be put on before an erection. Inelastic and adjustable penis rings are recommended to be worn when the erection is already strong. You can and should use lubricant to help put on the rings if necessary.

Balls and bumps for pleasure

Different ring designs bring more pleasure to those who want variety. For example, some penis rings have soft bumps on the inside of the ring that stimulate the shaft of the penis. There are also flexible penis rings that have inflexible metal balls inside. These balls bring a completely new kind of feeling to the penis ring user.

In some cases, there may also be different bumps on the outer surface of the penis ring, which can provide different stimulation for the partner during intercourse.

Vibrating pleasure

Traditional battery-operated vibrating cock rings are primarily intended to please a partner with a pussy during intercourse. The idea is that the vibrating part provides much-needed extra stimulation to the clitoris.

USB-rechargeable penis rings have become extremely popular recently. The rechargeable motor is often considered more convenient to use than button battery-powered ones, but USB-rechargeable products have other advantages as well.

The Satisfyer rechargeable penis rings in our selection have a wide range of vibration programs, so you don't have to settle for just one vibration, like most battery-operated penis rings. The vibration is also usually much stronger in USB-rechargeable penis rings than in battery-operated penis rings. During intercourse, it is felt not only by your partner but also by the penis itself.

The powerful vibrations give the cock ring many other uses, especially if the ring itself is adjustable. You can leave the ring open and use the vibration as it is as a small vibrator for full-body caress, or you can run the cock ring along the shaft of the penis.

You can also wear the penis ring so that it vibrates towards your testicles. Some models also have the option to connect the product to Satisfyer's own app via Bluetooth and control the product's vibrations through it. So if you want, you can go enjoy the sun with your pants vibrating .

Penis rings are much more than just rings, and their possibilities for use, both alone and together, are extensive.

Come and explore our selection in store and grab some summer tires to enjoy! We will be happy to help you choose the right products.

Best regards,
