anyone have a 1.75"

I currently have a kaplen 2” and because of the shape of it my glands fill the tube but don’t pack the rest of it. Does anyone have a non tapered 1.75” tube that they have out grown to sell me? I don’t want to buy a new one since I will out grow it very soon girth comes easy for me. I’m 6”NBPEL X 5.25 pre pump to 5.5 EG for about 12hr post pump. I want to work on length will a 1.75 be to small for this?

GonaBeBig,I have two inch cylinder as well.My erect girth is six inches give or take ,depending on stimulation.I am also considering buying a 1.75” tube because I don’t feel I’m getting the length stretch I need at this point.In short think a 1.75 ” tube will be fine for you.

GonaBe,

I think a 1 3/4” tube would be ok for you but with your current erect girth (pre pump) you will pack it very quickly as you say. I have a 1.75” tube I’ve used for a long time just for length work and it does a good job for that. I pack that sucker from top to bottom and work the pressure up and down to get stretched out in the tube.

I don’t want to part with mine as I like it too much and plan to stick with it. If you can’t find a used one, you might want to look at LA pumps. They have reasonable prices on tubes and mine is still working like new after 3 years of use!

You could always use it first in your sessions for stretching the ligs then switch to the 2” for more girth work. Girth comes much easier for me as well but I use the smaller tube as it focuses more on length.

Good luck on getting one!

I am also your size at about 5.5” EG . I’ve been using a 1 3/4” tube almost exclusively for years. I pack it well and get good length stretch with it.

I sometimes use a 2” but it just gives me a lot of fluid build-up.

But sorry, I’m not ready to do away with my 1 3/4” yet either.

Well thanks everyone, looks like I will just get a new one as I want to get it soon, I was just hoping to save some money as I also will be getting a vacuum hanger to replace my wench.

Gonabe,

I don’t think you’ll regret getting a new 1.75” tube. When you start to pack it just focus on getting length from it. I do 20 min sets and milk the tube to restore blood flow during sets without removing the tube. To get bigger (length-wise) I do more sets. It’s pretty amazing how long you can stretch out in the tube over time. If you keep the hg kinda low (4-5”) you will find you get a very nice stretch over the coarse of say 20, 40, 60 min sessions. Of course this all depends on how conditioned you are to pumping.

I’ve finally given up on many other forms of PE like hangers, extenders etc as I found their too much of a hassel. Either they don’t fit right or I plateau with them etc. Pumping seems to be the easiest form of PE for me and I think given many months or years of dedication to it along with jelking might it just do the trick. I guess I’m just leaning toward simplicity over frustration as I’ve tried everything else.

Good luck with pumping and the vacuum hanger!

tinytim,

I’ve used my 1.75” tube exclusively for some months (about 6 months) too before I tried hanging again, but that’s another story, but I was wondering since you’ve been pumping for years how your gains, especially length gains, have went from pumping?

Sounds like your a seasoned pumper so I was wondering if you’ve made gains from it. I can’t seem to get past my BPEL of 6.5” in the tube. Do you think it’s possible to move past this point, on down the line, thru consistant pumping and jelking? Wouldn’t slowly upping the pressure over time help with length?

I’ve heard it said that over time (months-years) it becomes easier to pump up faster and bigger, has this been your experience as well? I pack the tube pretty quick myself, 10-15 mins, but wish I could get past 6.5”!

At any rate, I plan to keep at with pumping as I like better than anything else I’ve tried.

Thanks for any help!

I guess I could qualify as a seasoned pumper, I’ve been doing it for about 8 years, and made most of the mistakes a person can make.
As for gains… not all that much. My overall length gain is about 1/2” and girth about 3/4”.
I can’t say how much pumping has contributed to that since I do many forms of PE together, but I started out pumping for several years before starting the other exercises. I think pumping has contributed mostly to my girth.

I’m only 6” NBPEL but can reach 8” in the tube. Over time it does become easier to pump up faster and bigger. When I am warm and loose I pump right up to 7” with no effort. After that I keep cycling between upping the vacuum and releasing.
I find that I can stretch longer up the tube by repeatedly pumping up and releasing. By progressing slowly you can probably get past your 6.5” limit.
I’m sure of it… I can remember when I once reached 7 1/4” and considered that a milestone.

One point to note is that I do not pump while erect, at least not while I’m trying to reach my goal. I find it very difficult to stretch while erect.
I always pump flaccid, and sometimes, once I am fully stretched and packed, then I might allow an erection to fill up the tissue and complete the stretch.

I’m a bit disappointed with my gains, considering how much time and effort I have given to PE. I am tempted to blame it on my genetics. I’ve been lifting weights at the gym for over 20 years and I don’t look much different than when I started. It seems that my body simply does not react much to exercise.
It might be my age also. I am over 48 and maybe my body cannot grow anymore.

tinytim,

Thanks for your reply, and I do appreciate your honesty! I know just what you mean about the age thing! I’m 50 years old myself and been PE’ing since around 1998. Tried everything I think but things haven’t turned out as planned either. So, I’ve decided to settle on pumping and jelking as a way to “do something” about my size.

Yes, I agree pumping is mainly a girth exercise and your gain of 3/4” is very good I think. I agree a length gain of 1/2” isn’t that great considering the effort but it’s still a pretty good gain right? Any sort of gains (I think) are good gains as I know how hard they are to come by! I’d say you’ve done very well.

You can reach 8” in the tube!! Man, that’s awsome! That’s what I’m shooting for myself and as you say I too think it can be achieved over time. How long can you sustain that length after pumping? Tell me, if you don’t mind, how long are your pump sets? How long are your usual sessions? And one more, how much hg (pressure) do you use in your sessions?

I myself, have always used a constant pressure during sets, only lower it down to about 3 hg to milk the tube a bit during sets, then back up to around 5-6” hg, is that a bad way to pump in your experience or does it really matter how you do it?

Sorry for all the questions, I was just wondering if you use high cycling pressure (or increased it) to reach your length goals.

I can relate in terms of exercise. I’m about 40 lbs over weight these days and can’t seem to lose it. I think it’s my genetics also that have hurt my gains, can’t seem to stretch the cock enough. But then I’ve always been a hard gainer anyway.

Thank you for your advice, you have given me hope I’ll reach my goals!

I reach 8” at maximum pressure. I don’t stay that way once I come out of the tube. Its the same as my bonepressed-stretched-flaccid length.
When I come out of the tube I’m about 5 1/2” flaccid.
I usually pump at night so my sessions vary from 1/2 hour to maybe even 2-3 hrs. like last night I just pumped and surfed the web. I got a really good long, thick, pump out of my 2” tube.
I don’t use a pressure gauge so I have no clue what the pressure is. I go by feel. Thats how I made so many mistakes in the beginning. I suffered numerous blisters.

I don’t know if that is a good or bad method. We are all on a discovery mission here, there is no hard science to guide us so we simply rely on what works. I think there is such thing as the proper method, but I can’t be specific. I think slow and low is the best approach. Then safely work up.
A good indicator for when to stop is when your glans gets hard and desensitized, and it comes out sort of white. Actually, that is past the time to stop, but that is usually when I stop. A good erection, massage, and squeezes will restore an over-pumped glans.

I can’t comment on my tube pressure since I don’t monitor it. I push until I reach my length goal, or until it is uncomfortable. But I start out low to get loosened up.

I don’t stay stretched out too much either. Looks real good in the tube but coming out I shrink up to about normal EL length, girth stays fat for sometime though, wish it would stay that way but guess not. I also use a Threa-P strap after sessions to keep the pump for a while, it does help!.

Yep, I do my pumping at night too but now finding the 1.75” tube is getting really too tight for me. I have a 2” Vacutech flared tube but hate to use it, kills my nuts in only about 20 mins use! Wish I had gone with a Velseal tube instead…oh well, too late now I guess.

I can relate to getting the white, hard glans!!! After only 40 minutes, 2- 20 min sets, my head is really hard and whiteish looking, didn’t know that happened to others and glad to hear it’s not just me! I’m thinking I really need to move up to the 2” tube since I’m about busting the 1.75” wide open, feels like it anyway.

I agree with your “low and slow” method completely! That’s how I start out sets then slowly up the pressure as I go to get more stretch. From what you’ve said and how you use your techniques, I think I do a lot similar to yours. If I continue to go slow and safely over time I see no reason I can’t get similar length stretch goals as time passes. That’s what I’ll continue to shoot for. It all boils down to time and effort I guess.

I appreciate the advice, I’ve learn’t some things from you!
Thanks

I saw Kaplan’s 1.75” at a “store” for only $39.99. I don’t understand why they cost more online.
