Thrusting Buttplugs

A thrusting butt plug actively moves in and out—which is different from simply wearing it. Here you’ll find thrusting butt plugs with a motorized pulsation mechanism, made of silicone, for solo use, and with a remote control. Check out the full selection of all butt plugs or go back to all anal toys.

What is a thrusting butt plug?

A thrusting butt plug is an anal plug with a built-in mechanism that moves the plug—or its upper part—in and out. This thrusting motion simulates active anal penetration without you having to move the plug yourself. Thrusting butt plugs are also known as thrusting anal plugs. They combine the passive comfort of a butt plug with the active stimulation of a dildo.

How does a thrusting butt plug work?

The motor in a thrusting plug sets a telescopic or eccentric mechanism in motion. This creates a rhythmic in-and-out movement of the insertable part of the plug. The outer diameter remains constant—the plug still rests on the same safety flange—but the inner part moves. Speed and rhythm are adjustable on most models via a button or remote control. Always use plenty of anal lubricant with a thrusting plug—the movement requires more lubricant than a static plug.

Why choose a thrusting butt plug?

For those who want more than the static sensation of a regular plug but want to keep their hands free. A thrusting butt plug provides active stimulation without requiring you to move yourself — handy for solo use and during sex with a partner. The thrusting motion activates the nerve endings in the anal canal in a different way than vibration or pressure alone. For men, the thrusting motion combines prostate contact with rhythmic stimulation, creating an intense combined sensation.

Types of thrusting butt plugs

Button-controlled thrusting butt plug

Basic model with a button at the base or on the cord that lets you switch between thrust speeds and patterns. Reliable and easy to use. Downside: you have to reach the toy to change the setting.

Thrusting butt plug with remote control

Wireless control gives you or your partner full remote control. Popular for use during sex when you want to keep your hands free. Check the range of the remote control if you want to operate the plug from a greater distance.

Thrusting and vibrating butt plug

Combination models featuring both a thrusting mechanism and a vibrating component. The combination of thrusting and vibration provides more intense overall stimulation. Requires a larger battery and is typically larger than single-function models.

What should you look for in a thrusting butt plug?

Check if the model is waterproof — thrusting models have more moving parts that require a good seal. Use more lube than you’re used to with static plugs — the thrusting motion uses it up faster. Choose water-based lube for silicone models. Start at the lowest thrust speed and build up. Thrusting plugs are usually larger than classic models — keep the diameter in mind when choosing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Thrusting Butt Plugs

Is a thrusting butt plug suitable for beginners?

It’s best not to use it as your first anal toy. The thrusting motion is more intense than the static sensation of a regular plug and requires that your body already has some experience with anal penetration. Start with a classic butt plug, build up your comfort level, and then switch to a thrusting model if you want more active stimulation.

How does a thrusting butt plug differ from an anal vibrator?

An anal vibrator produces vibrations—a fast, pulsating motion. A thrusting butt plug makes a slower, rhythmic in-and-out motion. These are fundamentally different types of stimulation. Some models combine both; others focus on one of the two. You can find more about anal vibrators at anal vibrators.

How do I clean a thrusting butt plug?

Clean immediately after use with warm water and mild soap. Check for water resistance before fully submerging the toy. The moving parts require extra attention when cleaning—make sure to remove lube and bodily fluids from the moving joints. Allow to dry completely before storing.
