How to measure for an ED ring

To measure for an ED ring, wrap a soft tape around the base of the penis when fully erect and read the circumference. That number is your girth. For FirmTech rings, the only question is whether it is 5.5 inches (14 cm) or less; if it is, all three rings fit, because the strap adjusts.

How do I measure my size for an erection ring?

Measure erect girth at the base with a soft tape. Fixed rings are sold by inner diameter, so divide girth by 3.14 to convert. FirmTech rings skip that step: the TechRing, Performance Ring and MaxPR adjust to any erect girth up to 5.5 inches (14 cm), which FirmTech says covers 95% of men.

Step by step

Measure your girth in 4 steps

  1. Get a soft tape or stringA soft sewing tape measure works best. A piece of string and a ruler work too.
  2. Measure when fully erectWrap the tape around the base of the penis, where the ring will sit. Keep it snug, not tight.
  3. Read your girthThe number on the tape is your erect girth (circumference). With string, mark it and measure against a ruler.
  4. Check it against 5.5 inchesIf your girth is 5.5 inches (14 cm) or less, every FirmTech ring fits. Need diameter for a fixed ring? Divide girth by 3.14.

Does a FirmTech ring fit you?

Unit

Girth or diameter: which one matters?

Girth is the distance around; diameter is the distance across. Diameter equals girth divided by pi (about 3.14), so a 5.5 inch girth is about 1.75 inches across. Fixed rubber, silicone and metal rings, and the tension rings sold with vacuum pumps, are sized by diameter, so they need an exact match. Adjustable rings like FirmTech's only need you to stay within their maximum girth.

Common mistakes

What goes wrong when sizing a ring?

Measuring soft

Measure erect. A ring sized to soft girth will be too tight once erect.

Measuring the shaft

Measure at the base, where the ring actually sits.

Pulling the tape tight

Snug, not squeezing. A tight tape reads small and leads to a ring that is too tight.

FAQ

Common questions

How do I measure for an erection ring?

When erect, wrap a soft tape measure or a piece of string around the base of the penis. That number is your girth. FirmTech says that if it is 5.5 inches (14 cm) or less, its rings fit. To convert girth to the diameter used by solid rings, divide the girth by 3.1416.

How do I convert girth to ring diameter?

Divide your circumference by pi, about 3.1416. A 5 inch girth equals about 1.59 inches, or roughly 40 mm, of diameter. Diameter matters most for solid, fixed-size rings. FirmTech adjustable rings are sized by girth instead, with a stated fit of up to 5.5 inches erect.

Is there an ED ring size chart for FirmTech rings?

Yes. The size chart on this guide’s home page converts erect girth from 4 to 7 inches into centimeters and diameter, and marks which measurements fall inside the FirmTech stated fit of up to 5.5 inches. All three FirmTech rings share that range, so one chart covers the TechRing, Performance Ring and MaxPR.

What if my girth is more than 5.5 inches?

FirmTech states its rings fit up to 5.5 inches (14 cm) of erect girth, so a larger measurement falls outside the published range. Contact FirmTech through getfirmtech.com/contact before buying to ask about fit. FirmTech also offers a 30-day money-back guarantee if a ring does not meet your expectations.

Can I put a FirmTech ring on before an erection?

Yes. FirmTech says its rings are designed to go on while you are soft, so you can put one on discreetly ahead of time. You hold the loop open, place the testicles through one loop, set the other loop around the base of the penis, then adjust the tension for comfort.

What size erection ring do I need?

With FirmTech rings, you do not need to pick a size. FirmTech says one size fits 95% of men, up to 5.5 inches (14 cm) of erect girth, and the hook-and-loop strap adjusts to your exact size. If your erect girth is above 5.5 inches, contact FirmTech before ordering to ask about fit.
