VENTED BELL PERC ASH CATCHER

Description

This ash catcher is made from borosilicate glass and uses a vented bell percolator for diffusion with reduced drag. It has a male joint at a 45 degree angle sized for 14mm female bong joints, and is available in green, blue, black, or purple.

Evidence: Borosilicate glass provides excellent durability and heat resistance.. Evidence: The vented bell perc diffuses smoke with very little drag.. Evidence: Ground glass joints create an airtight seal for the best possible airflow.. Confirm Bong Joint Gender: This ash catcher has a male joint and is made for bongs with a female joint.. Measure Joint Size: Check if your bong uses a 14mm or 18mm size.. Identify Bong Style: Beaker bongs typically require a 45° angle.. Identify Bong Style: Straight tube bongs typically require a 90° angle.. Check Clearance: Ensure there's enough space for the ash catcher without it bumping the base.. Evidence: An ash catcher's angle must match the bong's downstem for the bowl to sit level.. Evidence: The standard joint sizes for most bongs are 14mm and 18mm.. Evidence: A male joint on an accessory like this one fits into a female joint on a bong.. Choose 45° for Beaker Bongs: If your bong has a downstem that extends out at a diagonal angle, like most beaker-style bongs, you need a 45° ash catcher.. Choose 90° for Straight Tubes: If your bong’s joint comes straight up vertically, like on most straight tubes or rigs, you need a 90° ash catcher.. 14mm Joint: Roughly the size of a pen tip. This is the most common joint size.. 18mm Joint: Noticeably larger, about the size of a U.S. dime.. Evidence: Beaker bongs almost always use a 45-degree angle joint.. Evidence: Straight-tube bongs and dab rigs commonly feature a 90-degree joint.. Evidence: A 14mm joint is the most common size, while 18mm offers wider airflow.. Add Water: Fill the ash catcher with just enough water to submerge the diffusion slits at the bottom of the bell perc. Avoid overfilling it.. Attach to Bong: Carefully insert the male joint of the ash catcher into the female joint of your water pipe.. Insert Bowl: Place your matching bowl with your material into the top joint of the ash catcher.. Test Airflow: Take a light pull without lighting the bowl. You should see bubbles with minimal resistance. If water splashes into your bong, the water level is too high.. Secure (Optional): For extra stability, you can use a keck clip (sold separately) to secure the joint connection.. Enjoy: Light up and enjoy a cleaner, smoother session.. Evidence: Fill the water just above the percolator's diffusion slits.. Evidence: Overfilling can cause water to splash into your bong's main chamber.. Evidence: A quick test pull ensures everything is working correctly before you begin.. Evidence: The Vented Bell Perc offers a balance of great filtration and low drag.. Evidence: Dry catchers trap ash without adding any water filtration or drag.. Evidence: Honeycomb percs give you high diffusion but can be harder to clean.. Empty: Pour out the old water.. Rinse: Run hot water through it to remove any loose debris.. Clean: Add a coarse salt (like Epsom salt) and 91%+ isopropyl alcohol.. Shake: Cover the openings and shake it hard for 30-60 seconds.. Rinse Again: Thoroughly rinse with warm water until all alcohol and residue are gone. Let it air dry.. Evidence: Coarse salt acts as a scrubber for the inside surfaces.. Evidence: Isopropyl alcohol is very effective at dissolving resin and sticky buildup.. Shop All Ash Catchers.
