What is an Air-Pulse / Clit Suction Toy?

Air-pulse / clit suction toys are sex toys designed for indirect clitoral stimulation. Instead of using vibration to stimulate the surface of the clitoris, air-pulse / clit suction toys use nozzles with small openings and pulses of air to provide indirect stimulation to the perimeter of the clitoris.

How do air-pulse / clit suction toys work?

Air-pulse / clit suction toys create a seal once the nozzle opening is placed over the clitoris. This seal creates a vacuum effect when the toy activates. The vacuum effect is what turns the air pulses into a sucking sensation. This combination of vacuum seal and air pulses provides stimulation with no or minimal vibration to the perimeter of the clitoris, creating a more intense orgasm.

WE RECOMMEND

How do vibrating air-pulse / clit suction toys work?

Vibrating air-pulse / clit suction toys combine the vacuum seal and air pulses combo with a vibrating drum placed at the back of the nozzle. This drum creates an intense vibration on the surface of the clitoris alongside the sucking sensation around the perimeter of the clitoris. The indirect and direct clitoral stimulation kicks the already intense orgasms up another notch.

What is a Pump Toy?

Pump sex toys are cylinders or, in the case of pussy pumps, specifically molded shapes with a pumping mechanism on one end and an opening with a seal mechanism on the other. They differ in size and shape depending on where on the body the pump will be used. Pumps come in five variations; Penis, nipple, clitoral, vulva, and FTM bottom growth styles.

How do Pump Toys Work?

Sex toy Pump work by placing the cylinder or specially molded chamber over the intended body part and manually or mechanically activating the pump mechanism. The pumping mechanism creates negative pressure inside the chamber that draws blood into the body part, engorging it and producing an erection or heightened sensitivity.

WE RECOMMEND

How do Vibrating Pump Toys Work?

Vibrating sex toy pumps work the same way as their non-vibrating counterparts; only they add a layer of sensation via a motor that causes the chamber's shell to vibrate. Vibrating pumps are used for masturbation or their ability to overstimulate an already engorged area.

Why Buy an Air Pulse / Clit Suction Toy?

Air-pulse / clit suction toys are great for folks looking for a new way to experience clitoral sensation. The vibrating versions are perfect for folks seeking high-intensity toys that come in a smaller package. The nonvibrating versions are great for folks who find direct clitoral stimulation too intense. Because the air-pulse / clit suction toys have to be pressed against the body when used, they are great for stimulating the inner clitoris as well.

WE RECOMMEND

Why Buy a Pump Toy?

A sex toy pump's primary function is to heighten sensation on the body part they are being used to stimulate, even more so in vibrating versions. Almost to the point of overwhelm. Perfect for kinksters or those simply seeking various types of sensations. Penis pumps and FTM bottom growth pumps are also used to make erections firmer and girthier temporarily. This can be an excellent tool for those having trouble maintaining erections.
