Hardware coupling hex nuts - cock ring by Topco Sales - review by ToyTimeTim

Hardware Coupling Hex Nuts are part of the new Hardware line from Topco Sales. Like the rest of the line, these nuts a made using real hardware as forms. A nice, soft material is used so they can be put on with ease and to help provide comfort while still giving a 'tightened' feeling.

This set come with two nuts, a small and a large. The small can be worn around the shaft, the balls or both. Due to the stretchy material the small will fit all but the largest guys. The large ring is more suitable to the ball and cock configuration. Although, you could wear it on your shaft and use it more like a 'bumper'. This might work good for the well endowed.

Used during intercourse, you partner may not get any extra stimulation from these nuts. Have no fear though, when they see your tool tightened and ready to roll, they will forget all about a little bit of extra stimulation.

When not in use they look like a soft chew to for your dog so there is no need to worry about folks finding them. They would easily fit in your pocket for a night on the town.

Unlike real nuts the are formed from molten metal, these nuts are made from TPR. TPR is a great body safe material that is Phthalates free, Latex free and Hypo-allergenic. You will find just a hint of a chemical/rubber type smell and no taste. It is porous so no sharing with non fluid bonded partners.

After a good first washing the surface will be sticky and may pull longer hairs. If you like you can dust it with cornstarch and this will take care of that. The finish is smooth with just a few pits and creases. I believe this is intentional as it makes it look more like a real nut. There is a marbling to the dark grey color.

NUTS! Have you seen cock rings shaped like nuts? Seems a lot of folk these days are DIYers, and it only makes sense that these nuts will be wanted by many. If not for the lack of threads, one might mistake them for the real deal when viewed from a short distance.

Both nuts are about half inch thick. On one side they are formed with flat faces while the other side has been beveled on the outer edge (just like real nuts). The large ring has an inner diameter of 1 3/4", is almost 1/2" thick and it will easily stretch to fit around a pop can. The small ring has a inside diameter of 3/4", is 1/4" thick and can also stretch over a pop can.

The larger ring seems to have a denser material to it: this could just be due to more materials used for the thicker walls of the nut.

For your visual enjoyment-

A nice feature of these nuts is that you will not need a degreaser to get them clean. That's right, no harsh chemicals or high pressure power washing involved. Simply use a toy cleaner or anti-bacterial soap and warm water. Allow to dry and store in anyway you see fit. They will grab onto every hair and dust bunny around so a zip top bag or its original packaging will keep that down to a minimum.

Silicone and water based lubes will work very well with these nuts. Even though most real nuts live in oil based lubes, these will not be compatible. Think of it as rust to the TPR.

A oval shaped plastic package greets you when you receive your new nuts. This consist of a outer sleeve over a molded inner holder of said nuts. The outer sleeve has the name and the Hardware logo along the top. To the sides and along the bottom is various information on the nuts' material and size. It also has the tag line "Screw one onto the shaft and one onto the balls; or use them both on the shaft." You can see the nuts through the lower sections of the packaging.

On the back you will find information on the Hardware line, some care and cleaning directions and two other toys from the line.

I found these to be a big turn on for this steel freak. I have been turning wrenches since I was five years old. I have threaded more nuts than most people have touched their front door. To put a couple on my 'built in tool' and see the nuts tighten and make that tool grow was like pure ecstasy. Ok, maybe not pure ecstasy but pretty damn close. But I did sit there for a few minutes just watching my throbbing tool as it became firmer and a bit larger.

I used them in all but one way I could think of (see below). In all but one way they performed like a good C-ring should; they provided restriction, were comfortable to wear, and looked good on. They work just as good during solo time or with the wife during sex. She did not get any extra stimulation on her clit other than some pressure, but she did notice the ring pressing against her outer labia. Something no other ring has done before.

I figured y'all could use some visual on how to possibly wear these rings.

1) Standard-


2) Three nuts are better than two-


3) Solo nut-


4) Bumper nut-

This is using the large nut. If it was a bit thicker I could use it for a stroker. With some lube it easily slides up and down my shaft. I found this good for those hard and heavy nights where we get a bit...um, hard with our thrusting. It provided a spring board effect and cushioned the blows for both of us.

5) Tickle her G-nut-

This is the only way I did not use it, the wife said "hell no" and I could not find a way to make it work when going solo. Still, it looked real cool.
