- Ball stretcher
A ball stretcher is a
sex toy that is fastened around a man'sscrotum and rests on histesticles in order to elongate the scrotum and provide a feeling of weight and pleasure to the wearer.Ball stretchers come in different forms: a rectangular piece of material (usually
leather ) that can be rolled into a tube shape and fastened with metal snaps, or a ring made ofstainless steel split into two pieces which can be fastened together with screws. Both the leather and steel ball stretchers elongate the scrotum (from half an inch to 4 inches (10 cm) or more), but the steel also adds additional weight (from half a pound (230 grams) to upwards of 5 pounds (2.3 kg)). A hook attached to a ballstretcher can be used to add even more weight, sometimes up to 10 pounds (4.5 kg).Stretching for short periods of time beyond what is comfortable either in length or weight can be both painful and pleasurable, and is one component of
cock and ball torture (CBT).Stretching for prolonged periods of time can be achieved with the use of a
ball lock . The heavier the padlock, the more significant the effect.Some ball stretchers can be locked closed with a
padlock , preventing the wearer from removing them and achieving a similar result to using aball lock . With some devices, this is done by adding a band that fits around the steel column of the device, covering the screw holes and locking in place. Other devices are made from two semicircles of steel which are joined at one side with a permanent hinge and can be closed at the other side with a hinge whose pin can be removed - the pin has a small hole through which a padlock can be placed, securing the device.Ball stretchers can be worn on a daily basis for long periods of time and will, over a period of months, permanently elongate the scrotum. However, since the scrotum is a relatively elastic piece of skin and frequently changes in length, the greater length may not readily apparent unless it is fully extended (for example, in hot weather). Leather ballstretchers are sometimes combined with a
cock ring and attaching with metal snaps to the bottom of the ring.See also
