What are claw rings used for in sensation play? Claw rings are finger rings with a long metal talon on each one. Worn on one hand, they let you drag, trace and scratch across a partner's skin with far more precision than fingernails. Light strokes raise goosebumps, and firmer pressure gives a sharper, scratchy feeling. They suit blindfolded play, teasing and temperature play, since steel feels cool to the touch. Because this set is solid steel, it also conducts electricity, so it can be paired with an e-stim body adapter plate.
Clawed sensation play rings, set of five
Clawed is a set of five stainless steel claw rings, enough to cover the thumb and fingers of one hand. Each ring is 1.6 inches long and has an adjustable band, so it can be tightened for a secure fit. The finger rings have an inner diameter of 0.6 inches and the thumb ring 0.8 inches.
The steel is nickel-free and non-porous, so it suits sensitive skin. It works with any type of lubricant, cleans up easily and can be boiled in water. It is also conductive, which opens the door to electrostimulation when combined with a conductive body plate.
Best for: Suits partners who enjoy scratching, teasing and contrast in touch, from feather-light tracing to firm clawing. It is a simple way into sensation play for beginners, and experienced players can add e-stim. Agree on pressure limits and a safe word first.

How to use
Slip a ring onto each finger and the thumb of one hand and adjust each band until it is snug but not tight. Try the claws on your own forearm to learn how much pressure they give. Begin on your partner with slow, light strokes over fleshy areas such as the back, thighs and buttocks, and build up only as they ask. Keep away from the eyes, face and any broken skin, and do not press hard enough to cut. For e-stim, follow the instructions that come with your power unit and adapter plate.
Care
- Any type of lubricant or massage oil is safe with the steel.
- Wash with warm water and mild soap after use, then spray with toy cleaner.
- For a deeper clean, boil the rings in water.
- Dry them fully before storing.
- Keep the set together in a pouch or box so the tips do not scratch other toys.

Frequently asked questions
Will the rings fit my fingers?
Each band is adjustable. The finger rings have an inner diameter of 0.6 inches and the thumb ring 0.8 inches as supplied, and the bands can be opened or closed for a comfortable, secure fit on most hands.
Do the claws break the skin?
They are meant for scratching and tracing, not cutting. Used with light to moderate pressure they leave sensation and perhaps faint marks. Any metal point can scratch if pushed hard, so start gently and let your partner set the pace.
How does the e-stim option work?
The rings are solid steel and conduct electricity. With an e-stim body adapter plate, the wearer's body becomes part of the circuit and a touch from the claws carries the current. The plate and power unit are not part of this set.
Are they suitable for sensitive skin?
The distributor states that the stainless steel is nickel-free, which is the usual concern with metal jewelry. The metal is also non-porous, so it does not hold on to lubricant or oils once it has been washed.
How do I clean them?
Wash the rings in warm water with mild soap and spray them with toy cleaner, or boil them in water for a more thorough clean. Dry each ring before putting the set away.
