How To Use A C-Ring

Cock rings: simple, effective male sex toy accessories that are small in size, but deliver excellent results when it comes to enhancing your personal pleasure during sex or masturbation. Also known as C-rings, penis rings, and erection-enhancing rings, these male sex toys are designed to help men delay ejaculation and climax, prevent premature ejaculation, make their erection firmer and fuller, combats erectile dysfunction, heightens sensitivity and sexual sensations, and much more. Cock rings are easy to use, and there is a wide assortment of different kinds of C-rings you can explore, which we detail here:


How To Use An Adjustable Cock Ring

Adjustable cock rings are the most versatile and customizable sex toy accessories, and you can use them in various ways that other cock rings can’t do. These unique penis rings come in a diverse assortment of designs and provide different uses.

The most basic form of the adjustable C ring is similar to the shape of the Cal Exotics Soft Adjustable Lasso Erection Keeper, which has a slider bead that makes it easy for you to create the perfectly sized ring for your penis; you can even make the ring larger enough to wrap around both your penis and testicles for even more unique sensations due to the constriction. The slider bead also acts as a quick-release to ensure that you can safely untighten the ring when necessary.

Some simple adjustable rings have two slider beads to separate the cock and balls and give you more customization control; e.g., the Doc Johnson Adjustable Silicone Cock Tie Set. Other adjustable erection rings can only fit around your penis like the Gladiator Power Cock Ring. These cock rings don’t require the use of lubricant to use on your member, but you can apply lube that enhances the sensations you feel as you grow your erection after wearing the adjustable cock ring, such as warming lubricant or cooling lubricant.

Another variation of the adjustable cock ring is the button-snap leather ones like the COLT 5 Snap Leather Cock Ring, which has an edgy look and classic closure style. These penis rings are easy to fit and secure around your penis with the button-snap design. Some have buttons along the entire length of the ring while some have just a few like the Adjustable 3 Snap Cock Strap; you can also find similar erection rings similar to this style that have different closures, such as the Velcro Closure Cock Strap.

To use, all you need to do is wrap the snap cock strap around your penis like a bracelet and snap the button closure to ensure that you get the proper constriction to help delay orgasms and make your erection bigger and better. Unlike the usual thinner cock rings, these leather cock snap rings have a thicker form, which creates this unique sensation that heightens your sensitivity and pleasure.


How To Use Cock Ring Sets

Cock ring sets offer you a pack of exciting C-rings that come in various sizes, materials, and shapes or designs. An example of one of our most basic cock ring sets include the Cal Exotics Silver Cock Ring 3 Piece Set, which features three silver metal cock rings in three different sizes. These firm, rigid metal-made penis rings add more pressure to the constriction and have a naturally cool temperature that contrasts the heat of your body, making them more exciting to experiment with. Instead of three separate rings, you can try a metal cock ring set like the XR Triad LARGE Triple Cock Ring Set, which is designed with three joined rings.

Another variation on these types of basic C-rings is the Silicone Support Rings or the Rubber Cock Rings 3 Piece Set, which have a sleek and plush-like feel to them. With these rings that are rigid in form, it’s best to use a high-quality lubricant to slip them onto your cock.


How To Use Stretchy Cock Rings

If you want to more basic and stretchy cock ring so that you can adjust the size of the ring to your liking, try erection rings like the Cal Exotics Senso Cock Rings or the Basic Essentials Enhancer Soft Cockring Set. These cock rings are made with stretchy, durable material, so you can stretch them to fit your cock and give you the right amount of pressure and constriction. You also get a variety of rings to choose from in these cock ring sets.

For some of these stretchy cock rings, they are designed with nubs or different textures that are used to tease your partner’s external sweet spots during intercourse. For a single stretchy cock ring and a smooth surface, you can try a penis ring like the Screaming O RingO Cock Ring.


How To Use Double Cock Rings

Double cock rings are typically penis rings with two rings attached together, and these dual male cock rings are designed to wrap around the base of your penis and testicles, which provide double the constriction and effectiveness of cock rings. Both rings usually come in different sizes: the larger one is for the penis while the smaller one is for the testicles (e.g., the Dual Clit Flicker Vibrating Cock Ring and the COLT Ball Strap Leather Cock Ring). Some cock rings double as couples vibrating love rings or have double bullet vibrators like the Double Dolphin Soft Vibrating Cock Ring.

Double cock rings are best if you have more experience with using these types of male sex toy accessories. All you need to do is wrap the larger ring around the base of your cock and the smaller ring around the base of your testicles. For some dual erection rings, you can use both rings to constrict your penis for more intensity.

For double cock rings that are made for couples to use during intercourse, they’re almost always accompanied by a bullet vibrator to ensure that your lover gets external stimulation, so position you and your partner in a way that will maximize their pleasure potential while you wear the ring.

Some double cock rings feature more variety in sex play, such as the Love Rider Beaded Dual Penetrator (for anal penetration), that allow you to explore various pleasure pursuits while using cock rings. If you use a double cock ring with extra features, such as an anal probe, make sure you get the right lubricants and apply it to the toy and to your body before using.

These cock rings are specially made to ensure that you stay hard for longer and last during lovemaking while delaying ejaculation.

Most couples cock rings double as vibrators so that your lady will receive stimulating vibrations to her clitoris and other external sweet spots.

Cowgirl and missionary are the best sex positions to use when you’re wearing a couples cock ring; you may have to adjust slightly to give your partner the perfect pleasure positioning.

If you’re feeling wild and want to give your partner anal sex, you can try the Double Penetrator Cockring Anal Vibrator Strap On, which features a beginner-friendly sized anal dildo and cock ring that you wear; think of it as an alternative to the traditional strap-on harness dildo sex toy.
