These tiny bubbles put more vapor into direct contact with water, resulting in a faster cooling time than you’d get with one big vapor bubble. This faster cool prevents the concentrates from overcooling, and coating the inside of your glass with unused concentrate. A dab rig can feature a vapor dome that fits the nail and prevents you from losing any of the concentrated vapor produced. Whereas traditional water pipes have 45-degree joints, typically have 90-degree joints and are smaller in size to help prevent the dilution of the vapor’s taste.
You can test this by inhaling on the mouthpiece and making sure the diffuser bubbles up. The nail column supports a bowl around the top to load in the concentrates. The vapor travels from the base of the bowl to the top of the nail column and down into the base of the rig.
If it is a male joint and comes with a vapor dome or glass nail, you can use it for dabbing. Other pipe styles can be converted using unique nails, but the male joint pipe is most common. These are dry herb bowls that are modeled after mini banger hangers that also can be used for carb capping. This piece has BlueV and a stone shaped opal faceted on the side.
Dabbers started trading in the big straight tube water wipes for water pipes half the size or smaller. When it comes to dabbing, filtration is a big deal, especially if you like big rips. To melt larger dabs quickly, you need a bigger banger or nail and also more heat. That heat is great, but it can be like a harsh blast of desert air on the back of your throat as your suck in a lung full of vapor.
With so many options it can be tough to decide which one to get! Here are some things to consider when choosing a new dab rig. Many of our come with a dry herb bowl which you can attach if you want to convert your rig into a water pipe. This is great for those who usually like the strong flavor produced by dabbing but occasionally want the filtration effects which come with bongs. If you’re buying the bowl separately, make sure you have an attachment with the correct size and gender. Quartz is a type of crystal that has a higher heat resistance than traditional glass.
