FAQs
Learn the basics about cock rings (also known as penis rings or dick rings), including how to use one, their benefits, and what makes Primal Rings different.
1. The Basics
What is a cock ring?
A cock ring — sometimes called a penis ring or dick ring — is a device worn around the penis and balls, or sometimes just around the penis. Cock rings can help hold blood in the penis, giving you bigger, stronger erections.
What is a cock ring for? Why wear a cock ring?
In general, the purpose of a cock ring is to improve sexual performance and pleasure. But guys use penis rings for a wide variety of reasons:
- Rings can keep your dick plump, so wear one for a fuller look in your underwear or swimsuit.
- Rings can help delay orgasm, so use one to extend your play sessions.
- Rings can make you harder and orgasm more intensely, so wear one for more exciting play time — either with someone else or on your own!
How long can I wear a cock ring?
We recommend wearing a ring for no more than 30 minutes, and then giving yourself a break. That recommendation applies for our rings, as well as for any ring you get from another company. As always, safety first: Be sure to remove your ring if you feel any discomfort.
How do I use a cock ring?
Just put the ring on while you're soft. Once you get hard, the ring can help hold the blood inside your penis, giving you harder, stronger erections and more intense orgasms.
You'll probably also find that you're even a little bigger when you're soft, so a cock ring can be used to help make your package look bigger in your underwear or swimsuit.
2. Primal Rings
What makes Primal Rings better than other rings?
It's all about high-quality materials and the Primal Rings ergonomic fit. We've created the best, most comfortable, sexiest rings you've ever seen.
Why are Primal Rings shaped differently?
Most of the rings you've seen from other companies are round with a flat profile. These rings are cheap and easy to produce, but they don't match your body's shape. As a result, they can actually make your dick look smaller by covering up some of your length.
Primal rings are designed with a unique S-curve profile and keyhole shape that better match your body's natural contours, making your assets look bigger than with regular rings. Plus, our design provides a more comfortable fit so you can wear your ring longer — whether you're out on the streets or under the sheets.
Where can I buy a Primal Rings cock ring?
Primal Rings are sold exclusively online at primalrings.com.
How do I clean and care for my cock ring?
We suggest cleaning your ring with a mild soap and warm water. Don't use any harsh chemicals.
How do I put on my cock ring?
The most important thing to remember when putting on your ring is:
The Primal 'P' should face up and away from you (so other people can read it!).
- Position the ring so the 'P' is facing up and away from you. The narrow end of the ring will be down.
- Start with your balls. Slip them through, one at at time, starting with your lowest-hanging boy.
- Once your balls are through, tuck your penis down and through the ring.
- Scoot the ring up into position.
Remember: Safety first! Do not wear a ring that is too tight, and remove the ring immediately if you feel discomfort, a sensation of coolness, observe any changes in color, bleeding, or feel tingling or numbness. If in doubt, take it off. Men with pre-existing genital conditions or injuries, or those taking anticoagulants should consult their physician prior to use. Cock rings should not be worn for more than 30 minutes, and you should not sleep in a ring.
