Q. How to Mount a Vac U Lock Dildo?
A. Mount a Vac U Lock dildo to the harness plug by twisting it on to the adapter plug with your hand while supporting the harness with your other hand.
Sprinkling talcum powder inside the hole on the base of the dildo prior to mounting will make it easier to attach the dildo to the plug. Further details on this can be found below, so keep on reading!
Mounting Vac-U-Lock – Video Instructions:
Originally it may appear obvious how to mount the toy onto the compatible harness adapter, but you'll soon realize that it has a super tight fit! This is no mistake, it is designed this way to be sure the attachment does not rotate on the plug during sexual intercourse.
It will stay in place no matter how rough your sex play or how often you walk around while wearing the strap-on. Watch the accompanying video demonstration, I show the following steps in order to correctly mount the attachment.
In the demonstration use a rubber penis which twists on with a firm hand, but I'm by no means have pumped biceps and it's easy for my thin arms to twist in place. You may need to use extra force if you have a firmer accessory, but as stated previously, the powder makes it slide better.
Step by Step Instructions:
- If the red adapter is not connected to the harness already, press it on with the 4 metal snaps.
- Holding the dildo upside down, sprinkle 1 tsp of talcum powder inside the hole on the bottom of the attachment.
- Holding the dildo sideways, insert your finger into the hole and twist it around to spread the powder evenly inside the hole.
- Do not return the dildo to an upright position or the talc will fall out of the hole!
- With the dildo sideways, twist it back and forth onto the adapter plug slowly while maintaining even pressure as you push it on.
Q. How to Remove a Vac U Lock Dildo?
A. To remove the dildo from the plug, pull it off in a twisting motion with one hand while supporting the square base with your other hand.
Important tip: Do not pull it straight off, this will stress the rubber or silicone material of your toy. You must “twist” it to remove.
Removing Vac U Lock – Video Instructions:
Before I explain the steps on how to remove the attachment from the strap on, I'm assuming you've already put it on using my steps listed above. The secret is to make sure you have used talcum powder inside the hole.
If you didn't use powder, the pressure inside the 2 pieces creates a strong vacuum and it can be difficult to remove! If you did not use powder, the steps are still the same, but may be trickier to pull it off.
In my experience, the rubber toys create stronger vacuum connection than the silicone toys. It's possible to remove a silicone toy without using powder, but it's still recommended to use it because you don't want to over stress the surface of the toy by pulling on it all the time, it can eventually tear.
Step by Step Instructions:
- Grab the dildo at the base, and slowly twist it as you pull away from the harness.
- Do not squeeze the dildo too hard at the base or it may be difficult to remove.
- Using consistent twisting motion is more effective that pulling it straight off, plus its gentler on the material, especially if you are using a UR3 silicone as the material is more delicate than rubber.
Q. How Can Men Wear a Vac U Lock Strap On?
A. There is a large opening at the bottom of the harness leaving more than enough space for the man's penis and scrotum to hang freely below. As such, this is one of the best male strapon dildos for sale.
Thanks to this innovative crotchless design, men can easily wear it without discomfort. It is one of the most popular strap on harness kits of all time because of its unisex design - it literally fits anyone! It is also the most luxurious and best strap on penis a man can wear, both in terms of comfort for him and realism for her.
In the photo above, you'll see the wide open crotchless base. There is an extra long and wide opening at the bottom of the panty style harness with plenty of space for a man's penis and testicles to hang below unimpeded, untouched and clear out of the way from the action happening above and the harness material to the side.
As such, this is a popular strap on penis for men with erectile dysfunction because his flaccid penis and scrotum hang freely below. If the man can get an erection, then there's plenty of space down there too. The dildo will fit higher on the pelvic bone so an erection can make it's happy appearance below the dildo.
Women who wear the strap on can enjoy a vibrator or clitoral stimulator during sexual play too, so it makes the whole experience more interactive for the couple, they can still sexually stimulate each other and tease the naughty bits even while the strap on is the body. It's one of the least restrictive products we've seen.
Q. How to Put on the Vac U Lock Strap on?
A. Attach the dildo before putting on the harness. Once the harness is on your body, adjust the belt at your hips and tighten the buckles to accommodate your waist size.
Step by Step Instructions:
- Attach the plug and dildo by following the instructions above.
- Feed the waist straps through the connectors.
- Put on the strap on by stepping into the strapon like you're putting on underwear.
- Pull the straps at the hips to adjust to your waist size.
- Position the dildo so that the flat back of the plug rests just above your pubic bone. Note: It should fit higher than a normal strap on because of the weight of the dildo & plug.
- Re-adjust the straps to tighten the harness firmly on your body according to this new dildo position.
- Tuck the rest of the straps inside the back, or you can trim them with scissors to fit your waist size specifically.
Q. How to Use a Vac U Lock?
A. Lubricate the dildo shaft thoroughly with water based lubricant before having sex. Regardless of the sex toy material you've chosen either soft or hard, rubber, jelly or silicone, you'll still need lots of lubricant. Is simply makes the whole experience better and more comfortable for the receiver.
One of the things you may notice is that the combination of plug & dildo feels quite heavy, so as noted above, you'll want to fit the dildo higher than you would on most other strap-ons. It should sit over the pubic bone.
An essential tip to mention is to never use silicone lube with the UR3 dildos because it can melt with the silicone compounds of the toy. It's always wise to choose water base lube, furthermore, it won't stain your bed sheets or the strapon material whereas silicone lube can create “oil” stains in fabric.
Q. What are Vac U Lock Adapters?
A. The Vac U Lock adapter is the red plastic piece that attaches to the harness and holds the compatible toys in place.
Most strap on dildos simply have a rubber or metal O ring that snaps onto the harness, or sometimes they are sewn into the fabric. The advantage here is the toy stays in place without moving around. This system can withstand active sexual motion compared to more budget options available for sale.
If you purchase any toy now, it will fit with any current adapter plug, but if yours is really old (10+ years old), it may not be compatible anymore. Vac U Lock sex toys and plugs are all compatible now as the brand has moved to improve consistency to make it easier for customers shopping online.
Some customers have asked about the tiny red probe on the front. For a newbie to the adult toy world , this may look like the completed unit with a tiny dildo for beginners, but the plug is not made for sex, it's made to hold the pieces in place. With that being said, it's absolutely possible to use the plug with your partner vaginally or anally. Creative couples have done it before!
The Vac U Lock adapter is a heavy duty plastic plug with a graduated, rippled shape that looks just like a butt plug. Interested in trying anal strapon sex? Yes, you CAN use the plug as a pegging toy since it is short, small and can be removed for proper cleaning!
Of course, that's not the plugs intended purpose, I'm just thinking creatively here and offering some neat ideas for creative and adventurous couples who may be interested in trying anal strap on sex.
Q. What is Vac U Lock Powder?
A. Vac U Lock powder is Doc Johnson's own brand of talcum powder. It acts as a lubricant to assist in removal of the attachments from the harness plug. It's unscented and will not leave greasy reside.
Why use powder? As noted in the step by step instructions above that explain how to use the dildo, when the male and female adapters are connected, it creates powerful vacuum inside, so the talcum powder acts as a lubricant to make it easier to remove the dildo from the strap on.
You do not have to use Doc Johnson's own Vac U Lock powder; any type will do, but this one is a popular choice for couples because it does not small like baby powder. In our opinion, using talcum is an essentially important step that will prevent your accessories and the harness material itself from overstretching and tearing during repeated application and removal.
