Learn how to attach an 80cm strap to your fantasy toys for hands-free play, solo or with a partner, plus tips on positioning, cleaning, and more.

Strap systems open up a world of hands-free play, letting you use your favorite fantasy toys in ways that simple handheld use can't match. Whether you're exploring pegging, solo play, or just want more control during partnered sessions, an 80cm strap offers versatility and comfort. In this guide, we'll walk you through attaching an 80cm strap to your dildo, adjusting it for a secure fit, and getting the most out of your setup.

If you're new to straps, you might wonder how they stay in place or whether they work with any dildo. The good news is that most fantasy dildos, including models like the Tendriss and Wölfing, have a flared base designed to fit standard strap rings. With a few simple steps, you can transform your toy into a hands-free tool for deeper, more immersive play.

What You Need: Choosing the Right Strap and Dildo

Before you start, ensure your dildo has a flared base. This is essential for safe strap use, as it prevents the toy from slipping through the ring. Most fantasy toys from Tentickle, like the Wölfing and Frankie, come with a wide base. If you're unsure, check the product description or look for the base diameter. An 80cm strap typically has an adjustable ring that can accommodate bases from about 3 to 5 cm in diameter.

You'll also want to consider the toy's length and flexibility. Longer, more flexible toys like the Tendriss are easier to control when strapped. If your toy is very soft, you may need extra support—some straps have a secondary ring or a built-in pocket for added stability. The 80cm length is ideal for most body sizes, providing enough adjustability to fit around the hips or thighs comfortably.

  • Always check that the toy base is wider than the strap ring opening.
  • For heavier dildos, look for straps with wider waistbands or additional support.
  • Silicone sample packs can help you test firmness before committing to a toy.

Step-by-Step: Attaching the Strap to Your Dildo

Start by laying the strap flat and identifying the adjustable ring mechanism. Loosen the ring if it's not already open. Slide the dildo's base through the ring, pointed end first, until the base rests snugly against the ring. If the ring has a locking toggle, tighten it around the base to secure the toy in place. Ensure the toy is centered so it doesn't wobble during use.

Next, position the strap on your body. For waist use, step into the loop and pull it up to your hips, adjusting the length so it sits comfortably below your navel. For thigh use, slide the strap up your leg and position it on the upper thigh. Tighten the strap until it's snug but not restrictive. Test the setup by gently tugging on the dildo to make sure it doesn't move.

  • If the ring is too loose, use the adjustment to tighten; you should be able to insert a finger between the strap and your body.
  • For solo play, consider lying on your back and using a pillow to angle the dildo.

Getting the Most Out of Your Strap: Positions and Techniques

Once attached, the 80cm strap opens up numerous play options. For partnered play, the classic position is standing or kneeling, with the wearer controlling the pace. The Tendriss, with its textured shaft, adds extra stimulation for both partners. For deeper penetration, have the receiving partner lie on their back with hips elevated, or try doggy style for a different angle.

Solo play benefits from the strap by freeing your hands. You can use them for additional stimulation with a vibe sleeve or simply to hold a book—though we recommend focusing on the sensations. Try grinding against a pillow while wearing the strap, or use it in the shower with water-based lubricant. Always remember to reapply lubricant as needed and start with slower movements to gauge comfort.

  • Use a washable, body-safe lubricant that's compatible with silicone toys.
  • Experiment with different strap positions—thigh-harness is great for grinding.

Cleaning and Caring for Your Strap and Dildo

After use, disassemble the strap from the dildo. Clean the dildo with warm water and mild soap or a dedicated toy cleaner. For the strap, follow the manufacturer's instructions—most are machine washable, but check the label. Silicone toys like the Woodsman or Toxxxik can be boiled for deep cleaning, but avoid boiling the strap unless it's pure silicone.

Store your strap and dildo separately to prevent damage. Keep the dildo in a drawstring bag or its original packaging, and hang the strap flat. Avoid exposing silicone toys to direct sunlight or high heat. Proper care will extend the life of both your strap and your toys, ensuring many more fulfilling sessions.

  • Always clean toys after every use to prevent bacterial buildup.
  • Check the strap for wear and tear before each use—replace if the fabric is frayed.

An 80cm strap is a versatile addition to your fantasy toy collection, enabling hands-free play and new intimate experiences. By choosing the right dildo, securing it properly, and experimenting with positions, you can enjoy your toys in ways you never thought possible. Remember to prioritize safety, hygiene, and comfort, and you'll get years of enjoyment from your strap setup.
