The process was named “dabbing” for a very simple reason – because you quite literally dab your product onto the heated nail. The primary difference with a dab rig compare to a bong is that wax rigs are used for concentrates and a water pipe is used for dry flower. With that being said concentrates give a much cleaner and stronger hit but the con is that concentrates are much more expensive. So if budget is a concern and your tolerance is high than sticking with a water pipe and dry flower may be better. If your tolerance to cannabis is lower it may be worth moving over to water pipes. There are many aspects of the rig that go into selecting the correct dab rig for you.
Most will be a straight 90-degree bend, but some rigs have a 45-degree angle. Filtration is less of an issue with dabbing, but if you take large dabs or dabs often, then a rig with good percolation is best. Percolator dab rigs cool down the vapor and filter it for a smoother hit. Whether you want a small table top piece or a durable silicone we have plenty of options to choose from.
Not only that the vapor stays in the recycler as you are taking a break and prepping for your second hit without the vapor going stale;. Recycler are spillproof and splashproof and just downright awesome. Glass dab rigs are the most common shatter rigs you will find on the market. This is lab-grade glass that is heat-resistant as well. Almost every dab rig features some type of diffusion, which forces the vapor through a series of small, submerged holes — forming millions of tiny, beautiful bubbles!
However, if the nail is too hot, it can burn your concentrates leading to a hard hit. Once the nail is heated to your liking, place your concentrates on the nail using your dab tool and spread them out evenly. Close the space with the carb cab and begin to take a hit, inhaling the flavorful, water-filtered smoke. Once you’ve finished your hit, let your rig cool down and clean the nail before loading your next dab. There are a number of differences between glass pipes and water pipes . First of all, dab rigs tend to be smaller than bongs, even aside from the extra-small micro dab rigs.
