Nipple Clamps - 4 Designs And The Main Features Of Each
Of those who've tried nipple clamps, I don't imagine that too many will 'sort of' like them or 'sort of' dislike them. There are always exceptions, but it's probably safe to say that if you like your nipples pinched, nibbled or bitten you'll like the clamps too; and if you don't, you won't. But they're such a staple of fetish play and bdsm that I thought I'd take a look at them today. There 4 common designs...
Alligator and clover clamps can be had in adjustable and non-adjustable versions, while tweezer and vice style clamps are always adjustable by design. And they can be had in 'vibrating' and 'regular'. Like all good things in life!
I should mention before we continue that if you've never worn nipple clamps before but would like to try them, get something adjustable!!! There's no way to accurately gauge how they'll feel until they're attached, and you don't want to have them sitting unused in a drawer somewhere because they hurt too much. Even if your nipples can take a lot of pressure, pinch-wise, you're better safe than sorry. You can always go to a tighter set later. And you always want to attach them at the base of the nipple...they just work better that way.
Alligator clamps are arguably the most common, and popular. Most nipple clamp sets will be this type, whether the label on the package says so or not. They come in a variety of widths and naturally get heavier as they get wider. The width of the clamps and the size of the nipples bearing them will determine whether they're attached from above or below, or pointing toward the wearer.
Most clamps of this type will be padded for comfort and to keep them from slipping, but some are bare metal and a few have teeth - not a starting point I'd recommend, but available if you want to try them!
Speaking of 'not a starting point', clover nipple clamps are a traditional Japanese design that's frequently referred to with words like 'mean', 'nasty', 'evil' and so on. They can be found in adjustable versions but even those are going to be pretty tight. I've personally never tried or used these, but people who do like them seem to really like them so they might be something you'll want to work up to. But really, you probably don't want to start here. These are sometimes called "butterfly" clamps, and they too can be had with pads and without.
Tweezer style clamps look exactly like you think they would, and adjust with a ring that slides up or down the tweezer to tighten it. They have almost-flat tips and can work pretty well, but they're more likely to slide off than the other styles if they aren't applied tightly enough. There's a variation called "prong style" whose tips are either curved or bent more dramatically, they're intended for larger nipples.
I'm not a fan of the tweezer/prong type of nipple clamp but they're typically quite cheap if you want to give them a try; you won't be risking much and you might like them. Tweezer clamps are a good choice for clitoral clamps, if you want to try that.
The vice style nipple clamps (a.k.a. 'press' clamps) are named after their screw-type adjuster, and the fact that they clamp on like a really small bench vise! But they aren't as scary as that. They have a wide range of adjustment so they'll work for almost anyone. I like these; they work best if turned so the open side points down, which will make sense when you see them.
There are a few variations on or within these 4 designs, but this covers most of the models you'll find out there. Most of these will work well on larger nipples with the possible exception of the flat-tipped tweezer, so it's mostly a matter of trial and re-trial and finding a personal favorite. A narrow tipped adjustable alligator is a great choice for smaller nipples. But you won't know what works best for you until you try a few of them. So experiment a bit, and have fun!

I have a very small flange leak on my steam radiator system. Is there a flange clamp?
my steam heating system on my house has had a small drip around a flange where steam is dispursed. how should i stop the dripping? is there a clamp for this or how should i get a gasket or whatever. any websites on where to buy a clamp would be great. thanks
Hi,
Steam radiators should have virtually no water as any water is designed to go right back to the boiler for heating up. If it's dripping & the fitting is at the bottom then you may have water in there (trapped) usually because the radiator needs to tilt slightly so gravity takes the water back. You can shim the radiator to unlevel it. As for the leak, turn down the thermostat & allow to cool. Back off the fitting & clean the threads well, then apply pipe dope to the threads & tighten.
