Spartacus 1.5-Inch Stainless Steel Cock Ring – Red

The red Spartacus 1.5-inch Seamless Ring brings a hit of colour to a classic stainless steel cock ring. It's a smooth, rigid band with no seam, made to sit snugly at the base and stay put. A red finish stands out against skin, which some wearers enjoy as part of the look. It's a ring for people who already know the size that fits them.

Rigid steel: what to know before you buy

A stainless steel cock ring doesn't stretch, and that's the whole point. It gives a firm, constant hold with a clean edge, and the seamless finish means there's no join to catch on skin or hair. Steel is heavier than silicone, so you feel it, and it warms up to body temperature after a minute or so. Because it can't give at all, sizing matters far more than with a rubber ring. It should slide on comfortably when you're soft and still come off when you're hard. Spartacus names this ring by its 1.5-inch size; the listing doesn't say whether that's the inside or outside measurement, though steel rings are normally sized by inner diameter, so check the packaging if you're unsure.

Putting on and removing a steel ring

Fit it only when you're completely soft, ideally after a warm shower. Add lube to the ring and your skin. For a shaft-and-balls fit, ease one testicle through, then the other, then guide the soft shaft through last. Start with short sessions of 10 to 20 minutes, and remove it straight away if anything goes cold, numb, dark or painful. Never sleep in it. If it won't come off, stay calm, apply cold water and plenty of lube, and seek medical help if it is stuck.

Care

Stainless steel is non-porous, works with water-based, silicone-based and oil-based lube, and washes clean with warm water and mild soap. Dry it fully before you put it away in a pouch so it doesn't scratch against other toys.
