Materials Used for Anal Plugs |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Anal sex toys, including plugs come
in all kinds of materials. Materials differ in rigidity,
porosity, look and feel of objects. While rigidity, look
and feel are a matter or personal preference, the
porosity of the material used affects the sanitary
safety of the object. Porous objects allow bacteria to
develop in microscopic holes or pores, thus cleaning is
more difficult. Naturally, the price also varies with
the material used.
Another point to note is that
materials differ in the kind of lubricant that should be
used with them. See this page for a chart summarizing the
suitability of oil, silicone or water-based lubricants
for sex toys materials.

Silicone
Silicone is a high-quality quality
material that is smooth, durable, tasteless, ordourless
and
hypo-allergenic. It is a
flexible material. One advantage to silicone is that is nice to the touch and rapidly warms up to body temperature.
It is 100% non-porous and can be sterilized
easily by boiling. |

Composites
There are also toys that contain
silicone and other chemicals. They can contain
10% or more silicone. Some brands of silicone
composites are Trueskin, TPR Siklicone,
CyberSiliocone, and Loveclone RX, for example.
Since it silicone composites are combined with other materials, they
are
moderately porous, and can have a taste or smell. |

Rubber

it is a popular material for anal plugs and sex
toys in general. However, it does a distinct
smell and taste that some people may not like.
It is also porous and more difficult to clean. |

Wood
Wood makes for beautiful
objects. Because of its hardness, be careful to
avoid injury.
Wood is naturally porous and absorb liquid, and
so are often treated with a protective sealant
or finish. It is not recommended to leave wooden
items in water for longer periods of time
since wet wood can mold. Wood can be cleaned
with anti-bacterial soap. |

Metal

is excellent for smooth sliding. Because of its hardness, be careful to avoid injury.

Skin-like
These are plastic materials that
mimic the look and feel of human skin. Some
brands include Cyberskin, Futurotic Plus, UR3,
and New supersoft, among others.
These materials are very porous and the most difficult to clean. |

glass. This type of glass is much more resistant
to shattering and breaking than ordinary glass.

boiling water.
