Collection: Glass Dab Rigs

Choose a dab rig by size, joint size, banger compatibility, and filtration. Mini 4–7 inch rigs are compact and easy to store, while larger recycler or perc rigs offer more complex water pathways.

Before buying, check whether the rig uses a 10mm, 14mm, or 18mm joint and make sure your quartz banger matches the size, gender, and angle. For easier cleaning, choose a simpler design; for more filtration, compare recycler, inline, matrix, or other perc styles.

1. What is a dab rig?

A dab rig is a type of glass water pipe designed to work with a compatible nail or quartz banger instead of a traditional dry-herb bowl. Many dab rigs are compact and use water filtration, while more advanced designs may include recycler chambers or built-in percolators.

2. What is the difference between a dab rig and a bong?

The main difference is the attachment and intended setup. A traditional bong commonly uses a bowl, while a dab rig typically uses a quartz banger or another compatible concentrate attachment. Dab rigs also tend to be smaller, although both categories are available in many sizes and filtration designs.

3. What size dab rig should I choose?

A 4–7 inch mini dab rig is useful when compact storage and a smaller footprint matter. Medium-size rigs provide more room for water chambers and percolators, while larger recycler rigs can support more elaborate glass pathways. Instead of choosing by height alone, also compare the joint size, chamber design, and overall footprint.

4. Should I choose a 10mm or 14mm dab rig?

Choose based on accessory compatibility. 10mm joints are commonly found on smaller rigs, while 14mm joints are widely used across many medium-size glass dab rigs. Neither size is automatically better. If you already own a quartz banger or another accessory, verify its joint size, gender, and angle before selecting a rig.

5. How do I know which quartz banger fits my dab rig?

Check three things before buying a replacement banger: joint size, joint gender, and joint angle. A 14mm rig needs a compatible 14mm connection, but size alone is not enough—the male/female connection and angle must also match. Checking the specifications on both the dab rig and banger is more reliable than trying to judge compatibility from a product photo.
