Afex Receptacles

The Receptacles collection from Arcus Medical forms the essential core of the Afex Male Incontinence System — offering men a tailored, reliable solution for managing urinary incontinence confidently and discreetly. These receptacles aren’t just interchangeable parts; they are precision-designed components that ensure secure fit, effective flow, and all-day comfort across a wide range of lifestyles, mobility levels, and medical needs.

Whether you’re highly active, spend most of your time seated, or need a solution for unique conditions like male paruresis (urinary hesitancy), Arcus Medical has designed a receptacle that can meet your specific needs. Each style is thoughtfully engineered for anatomical fit, skin safety, and seamless integration with Afex briefs, supporters, and collection bags — ensuring the entire system works as a unified whole.

Types of receptacles available in this collection:

High style receptacles: Ideal for active daytime or overnight use, providing extra containment and security during movement.
Low style receptacles: Best suited for sedentary or mobility-assisted users, offering a comfortable fit in seated or reclined positions.
Super soft receptacles: Available in both high and low styles, these versions use softer materials to enhance comfort and reduce potential skin irritation.
Paruresis-specific receptacles: Specially designed for men experiencing male paruresis, or shy bladder syndrome, offering a discreet solution to help manage urinary needs.

Why does the right receptacle matter?

Secure fit — Prevents leaks and ensures urine is directed properly into the collection bag, reducing the risk of skin exposure.
Comfortable design — Anatomically shaped and available in multiple materials, including super soft options for sensitive skin or long wear times.
Odor control — Works in tandem with Afex bags and accessories to lock in odor and provide lasting freshness throughout the day or night.
Customizable use — Allows men to mix and match receptacle styles with briefs and bags depending on activity level, mobility, or time of use.
Durable and reusable — Made from high-quality materials, these receptacles are designed for repeat use, providing a more sustainable and cost-effective alternative to disposable products.

Who can benefit from this collection?

Men who want a tailored incontinence system, rather than relying on generic pads or briefs.
Active individuals seeking a high-style or super soft high-style receptacle for secure daytime or sports use.
Wheelchair users or those with limited mobility who need the comfort and accessibility of low-style or open-sided setups.
Individuals with specialized needs, such as male paruresis, looking for discreet, customized solutions.

By offering multiple receptacle styles, Arcus Medical ensures that no two users have to settle for a one-size-fits-all approach. For example, some men may prefer the high-style receptacle during the day when they’re upright and moving, but switch to the low-style version at night or when seated for long periods. Others may find the super soft materials essential for managing skin sensitivity or ensuring extra comfort during extended wear.

How does it integrate with the full Afex system?

These receptacles are designed to work seamlessly with Afex sports briefs, core supporters, open-sided briefs, and a range of collection bags — including daytime, leg-mounted bags and high-capacity overnight options. Extension tubes, stabilizers, and cleaning products further support the system, creating a complete, modular solution that adapts to your needs.
