Sounds

Sounds

Silicone is suited very well for this type of toy because it can be sterilized safely without compromising its integrity. The fact that Sounds can be made is also a great testament to the strength of silicone as a material for the toys overall.

Platinum cure Silicone can be autoclaved or processed in a pressure cooker safely without melting. Originally inspired by a good friend of mine, Dan, who one day showed me his collection of vinyl jelly type fishing lures he was using for urethral play. Realizing they were most likely not sterile or safe I set myself on a quest to develop some type of safe silicone toy for him. There were no silicone sounds on the market at the time, and so in 2000 the first set was produced at SquarePegToys^®. They were crudely designed at first, but that didn’t keep them from being well received.

In 2002, the design was improved with gentle entry rounded tips, and a generous length of 15″ to incorporate 2 size diameters into one: the mid-point of each sound the shaft increases by 2 french.  Thanks to all the feedback received on that original set of sounds, these latest models proved to be everything and more, carving out a new niche of silicone urethral toys.

The latest improvement to the design is a bulb near the base end of the sound, which when used in tandem with a coronal ring allows the sound to be held in place.

What is the “french” unit of measurement?
1 unit french is equal to 1/3 mm in diameter…. so 3 french would be equal to 1 millimeter diameter.
