Calexotics Steel Beaded Dual Silicone Cock Ring

The Calexotics Steel Beaded Dual is a stretchy silicone cock ring with two loops, one for the shaft and one for the testicles, and a row of stainless steel beads you can slide into position. It's a good pick for couples who want a ring that adds texture for the partner as well as a snug hold for the wearer.

Two loops, one ring

A single ring sits around the base of the shaft. A dual ring adds a second loop around the scrotum, which holds the whole package snugly and lifts the testicles slightly forward. Many people find that more secure and more noticeable than a shaft-only ring, and the second loop stops it from rolling up the shaft during sex. Both loops on this Calexotics ring are made from sturdy but very stretchy silicone.

What the steel beads add

Running along the ring are stainless steel beads that move. Slide them to the top and they press against a partner's clitoris or vulva during penetration, especially when you grind rather than thrust. Move them underneath and they rest against the wearer's perineum or the base of the scrotum instead. The steel is smooth and heavier than the silicone, so you feel each bead as a distinct point. Set them where you want before you put the ring on, since adjusting them mid-session is fiddly.

How to put on a dual silicone cock ring

Put it on while soft or only partly hard. Add a little water-based lube to the inside of both loops. Stretch the larger opening and pass the testicles through it one at a time, then fold the shaft through the other loop. Settle it so the shaft ring sits right at the base and the ball loop sits behind the scrotum. It should feel firm and snug, never pinching. Take it off after about 20 to 30 minutes, and remove it straight away if you notice coldness, numbness, a change in colour or any pain.

Sizing

Each loop is 1.5 inches (about 3.8 cm) across before stretching, and the whole ring measures 3.75 x 1.75 inches. Silicone has plenty of give, so it suits a wide range of sizes, but a ring that leaves deep marks or feels tight after a few minutes is too small. If you've never worn a ring before, a single stretchy ring is a gentler first step. Grooming helps too: trimming hair around the base stops it catching in the silicone as you stretch the loops on and off.

Lube and care

Use water-based lube, since silicone lube can wear down a silicone surface. After each use, wash it in warm soapy water or with a toy cleaner, sliding the beads back and forth so you clean underneath them. Rinse, then let it dry fully so no water sits around the steel. Store it on its own in a pouch, away from other silicone toys, and check the silicone for small tears before each use. A ring with a split should be replaced rather than worn.
