Stainless Welded Double Glans Ring

September 1, 2024

A glans ring is always a delight to have, so I own several as any collector of adornments would. But despite the number of pieces in my collection collection and despite thinking I’ve “seen it all”, every now and again a new design comes along that offers a nice surprise. That’s exactly what I found in this devilishly simple twist on a classic wire glans ring. By simply welding a second glans ring roughly at the same angle of the corona, the designers of this cheap generic ring brought something new to the table. It’s kind of one of those, “Why didn’t anyone think of this before?

Gear Essentials Quarter Screw Glans Ring

November 20, 2022

Designed to match the tremendously comfortable screw series from Gear Essentials, the quarter screw glans ring is a lightweight, highly polished aluminum adornment. The rounded edges ensure comfort and the striking finish easily matches the half screw cock ring that is already in my collection. The only thing left is to purchase a shaft ring to complete the set - which, unfortunately, is lost to time given the untimely demise of Gear Essentials as a manufacturer.

Braided Steel Wire Glans Ring

November 20, 2022

Another Etsy find from steelcraftsman, this simple glans ring is made from a braided stainless steel twist wire (industrial!) captured with a bead to close off the loop. Beautiful and rugged in its simplicity, this glans ring looks great when paired with other industrial adornments .

Weighted Magnet Glans Ring

November 20, 2022

An interesting Etsy find while browsing for… whatever, this weighted ring stuck out quickly. The interesting feature of this weight is the fact that it’s just a 1.25" stainless steel ball. At that size, it would be easy enough to wear all day long and even potentially disguise itself as your glans if detected through your pants. Unfortunately, the pictures on the listing weren’t super clear as to how this works. It’s nothing more than a rubber hose and a pair of magnets that attach to the stainless weight. This is fine enough for flaccid wearing while mostly still, but the strength of the magnets provided simply don’t have enough grip to hold on to the ball for all day use. Give it a bump, hop down a stair, or chub up too much and you’re liable to have a stainless steel ball drop out of the bottom of your pants leg! Have fun explaining that to onlookers. In any event, this is a cool addition to the collection if nothing for the novelty factor. Given my propensity to experiment and make things, perhaps I’ll look into replacing the magnets with much more powerful units…

Gear Essentials Surge Glans

November 20, 2022

Just like its bigger brother, the Stainless Surge, this glans ring version features a concave outer profile to give some visual interest. While I would have preferred to keep the theme of stainless for both rings, this version comes in a lightweight aluminum weighing in at only a quarter of an ounce. You’d be forgiven for forgetting the ring is even on! What I particularly like about this thicker ring is the the way it looks while fully erect. One’s shaft is easily constricted by this head ring causing both the shaft and head to swell around the concave profile. This creates a striking and rather interesting appeal - absolutely accentuating the glans even more so. Indeed, with this particular fit on my anatomy and the way everything seems to form around the ring, insertion while wearing this ring isn’t out of the picture - indeed, I suspect the contours will lead to a very interesting feel for your partner… especially if they enjoy the feeling of the glans as it pumps!

Weighted Ball Cage

October 15, 2021

While I don’t often wear ball weights, I certainly have plenty in my collection. Sometimes you just want that tug, after all. None the less, this particular adornment has been popping up for years while browsing and I finally decided to give it a whirl.

Like many cheap cages on AliExpress, this one is relatively loose fitting and “rattly” which leads to some severe pinches while attempting to put it on. That said, once it’s on, it does it’s job well. The interior of the cage leaves plenty of room for the boys to swell with excitement from extended play, deprivation, or edging sessions. The depth of the cage tops out at about 3" which is far more than I need for my hangers. I suspect those that engage in much more ball play would fill it out more.

Hinged Contoured Glans Ring

October 26, 2020

This interesting concept features an adjustable glans ring from a out 1.2 inches to 1.5 inches. Unfortunately, the size is too large for a glans ring and won’t quite work for me as a shaft ring. When adjusted to a larger size, the gap in the ring guarantees a better fit… but also pinching and discomfort!

Steel Trap Glans and Shaft

September 25, 2017

An interesting concept for sure, this glans or shaft ring features a set of stainless spikes surrounding the ring that allows one to tighten them into the shaft with a 1/8" hex key.

Unfortunately, the size is a bit awkward as it sits. Too large for a good glans ring that will stay put while flaccid and too small for a shaft ring while erect, this torturous adornment falls outside of the goldilocks range.

Split Ball Weight - Large

March 14, 2016

Available from several AliExpress and C&B stores, this split style ball weight is the behemoth to satisfy your heavy weight desires. It is separable into two halves joined by an allen keyed set of bolts to ease putting it on and taking it off. At more than a pound, it lives squarely in the realm of experienced ball stretcher repertoires only. In fact, putting it on is a challenge in itself given the narrow opening.
