After only a few years on the market, silicone tunnels and plugs have become quite popular, and for good reason. The soft rubber makes them great for fighting, shows and sleeping. Nothing is worse that getting your plug imbeded in your neck. This is certainly a must have.
These are not intended for stretching. Silicone's stretchiness may cause irreparable damage to your lobes if placed in a smaller hole than the size stated. Please wait at least 1 week after a stretch before wearing.
Material Information:
Silicone is often mistakenly referred to as "silicon". Although silicones contain silicon atoms, they are not made up exclusively of silicon, and have completely different physical characteristics from elemental silicon.
The word "silicone" is derived from ketone. Dimethylsilicone and dimethyl ketone (a.k.a. acetone) have analogous formulas, thus it was surmised (incorrectly) that they have analogous structures. The same terminology is used for compounds such as silane (an analogue of methane). A true silicone group with a double bond between oxygen and silicon (see figure) does not exist in nature; chemists find that the silicon atom forms a single bond with each of two oxygen atoms, rather than a double bond to a single atom. Polysiloxanes are called "silicone" due to early mistaken assumptions about their structure.
