I've worn quite a few PA devices over the years—some good, some terrible, and a few that left me wishing for a tetanus shot. But this one? The Adjustable Stainless Steel PA Lock with Urethral Plug (F273) honestly surprised me with its balance of form, function, and comfort.
The first thing you notice is how solid it feels in your hand. It’s crafted from 304 stainless steel, which means it’s not only body-safe but also resistant to bacteria buildup—something I always look for when dealing with intimate hardware. The surface is smooth, hand-polished, and beautifully rounded at the edges. There are no harsh seams or burrs to worry about, which makes all the difference when you're sliding something into such a sensitive part of your body.
The plug itself is equipped with a hollow urethral tube, so you can urinate freely without having to remove the entire piece. That alone makes it far more practical for longer wear, especially during the healing phase post-piercing, when frequent removal increases the risk of irritation or infection. I’ve worn it for hours without discomfort, and the flow stays clear and uninterrupted.
Then there’s the hinged clasp—God, it's smooth. It opens and closes with zero resistance, yet it stays securely shut while worn. The hex screws are discreet and easy to manage even with slightly lubed fingers. They're small enough to stay hidden but reliable enough not to pop open unintentionally. That kind of engineering makes me trust a device more, especially when you’re locking it around such a personal area.
The piercing keeper feature is clever: once in place, it holds the piercing cleanly aligned and eliminates the tugging sensation that many plugs create during movement. It almost disappears once you’ve got it on, both visually and physically—which, ironically, makes you feel more exposed, more vulnerable, and more connected to the experience. And let’s be real: that’s half the appeal of this kind of play.
Whether you’re using this for sexual exploration, as a symbol of devotion in a dynamic, or simply as a part of your identity—it delivers. It's not just gear; it becomes a part of you.
HOW TO USE
Start by disinfecting everything—tools, your hands, and the area to be pierced. Use alcohol or a medical-grade antiseptic solution. Cleanliness is critical.
Next, apply a generous amount of numbing cream to the targeted spot (usually at the underside of the glans). Let it sit for 20–30 minutes so it fully kicks in. Note: Numbing cream is not included and must be prepared in advance.
Once you're ready, take a sterile piercing needle and swiftly push it through the marked area. Right after, insert the piercing keeper or PA clamp and tighten it until it feels firmly locked in place. No need to over-tighten—just make sure it’s secure.
To keep the device stable, fix it with medical tape if needed. Clean the area once or twice daily with antiseptic solution. After roughly 10 days, when the wound has healed properly, you can safely remove the device—or replace it with your chosen jewelry.
