Rigid Perforated Ball Gag - Black Ball Gag

Fetish Tentation Ball Gag: a BDSM classic, well executed

The rigid ball gag by Fetish Tentation is a fundamental BDSM accessory. No frills, no gadgets — it's a ball gag that does exactly what it's supposed to do: gag. The ball sits behind the teeth, the straps fasten at the back of the head with a buckle, and that's it. The wearer can no longer speak intelligibly, and the dominant/submissive dynamic takes on a very concrete dimension.

This model has an important advantage over solid balls: the ball is perforated with several holes. This isn't just an aesthetic detail — it allows the wearer to breathe through the mouth in addition to nasal breathing. This is an essential safety feature, especially for long or intense scenes.

Fetish Tentation is a French brand specialising in accessible BDSM accessories. Their range targets practitioners from beginners to intermediates who want functional material without breaking the bank. The ball gag pairs well with their other bondage accessories.

The ball diameter (approx. 4.5 cm) is the market standard. It's large enough to stay in place behind the teeth, but not so much as to cause jaw pain quickly. For a first experience with a ball gag, this is the recommended size.

How to use it

Place the ball in the submissive's mouth, behind the teeth. Pull the straps to each side and fasten them at the back of the head with the buckle. Adjust snugly but not too tight: the gag must stay in place without cutting circulation or compressing the cheeks painfully.

Before starting: establish a safe signal with your partner. A ball gag prevents verbal communication — the classic safe word no longer works. Agree on a non-verbal signal: tapping three times on the mattress, snapping fingers, shaking the head in a specific way. This is non-negotiable.

During use: check on your partner regularly. Signs of distress to watch for: skin colour change, unusual breathing, excessive salivation. Always have scissors nearby to cut the straps in an emergency.

Maintenance

Clean the ball gag before and after each use. The ball goes in the mouth — hygiene is not optional. Wash the ball with hot water and antibacterial soap. Wipe the straps with a damp cloth.

Allow to dry completely in the open air before storing. Faux leather does not like prolonged moisture — it can cause cracking.

Do not share this type of accessory between partners without thorough cleaning between each user. The ball comes into contact with saliva and the oral mucosa.
