The clamping force of scissor clamps

If you’re looking for some really nasty nipple clamps, check out these scissor clamps. In the medical world, these clamps are also known as “hemostatic clamps” or “hemostats” for short. These clamps function somewhat like scissors, but have clamping jaws at the end instead of cutting blades. They are used to grasp, control, and temporarily stop blood flow in blood vessels during surgeries. Scissor clamps are essential in nearly every surgical procedure for controlling bleeding, which helps maintain a clear view of the surgical site and minimize blood loss in the patient.

Scissor Clamps in BDSM

But you’ll also find scissor clamps outside the operating room – right at home with a seasoned BDSM practitioner. They are definitely not for beginners. Fortunately, you can adjust the clamping force to some extent, but they’re vicious. In any case, it’s best not to use them for soft SM or with a novice sub. These clamps are also known as “scissor-style clamps.” They come in plastic versions, but also in metal. The metal ones, in particular, can be a great addition to nursing or medical play.

Scissor clamps are vicious

Keep in mind that these scissor clamps are a vicious type of clamp, especially the stainless steel ones. The plastic clamps are slightly milder. They stay locked in the position you set them in. The worst pain comes from removing the clamp… Of course, you can also place the clamps on areas other than the nipples. Labia, scrotum, tongue, earlobe – you name it. Just always keep in mind that these clamps can be really intense. It’s also a good idea to practice with the clamp beforehand, because it takes a bit of a knack to easily release it from its lock. You need to know this, though, before you (accidentally) tighten the clamp even further.
