What is a Dab Rig?

Dab rigs are small Glass Water Pipes that have been designed specifically for the use of vaping and dabbing concentrates. There are hundreds of different designs to choose from, and finding the perfect dab rig for your concentrates has never been more straightforward.

The dab nail or e-nail controls the temperature of the dab rig so that you can enjoy vaping different concentrates at different temperatures. Concentrates such as oils, waxes, and much more can all equally be enjoyed through the use of a dab rig. With so many different heating options and quartz banger options out there, it’s no surprise that the popularity of dabbing is continuing to grow at a fast rate.

The Main Structure of Dab Rigs (Dab Rig Anatomy)

Both dab rigs and bongs are water filtration devices,their usage principle and water filtration structure are the same. However, the main difference is that dab rig uses banger (also known as dab nail) as a heating container of concentrates instead of a bong bowl. The heated quartz banger evaporates the concentration, and the vapor fume reaches the bottom of the chamber through the percolator diffuser or perc and is fully filtered and cooled by the water in the chamber, thereby obtaining a smooth hit. Next, INHALCO will dissect the structure of dab rigs from the beginning to the end according to order from concentrate burning in the banger to inhaling you into the lungs.

Dab Rig Parts

Quartz Banger(Dab nail) -This is where everything started. As a container for heating concentrations, dab nails need to withstand a temperature of 350-420 degrees or even higher, so quartz is generally used as a material, also known as quartz banger.

Joint - This part is used to connect your water pipe and dab nail. The vapor fume in the dab nail reaches your water pipe through this link. Some standard joint sizes are 10mm, 14mm, and 18mm. Here you may know the term "joint gender" or the corresponding "gender of dab nail", well, clarify here; this is related to the size of the joint, not to the gender!

Glass Bong Joint

Percolator - The percolator is used to produce a filtering reaction with water. Generally, it is a pipe extending into the chamber,and there are one or more vent holes on the pipe. The diffuser enters the airflow into the chamber to generate bubbles in the water when you inhale, then the vapor fume is cooled and filtered in the water and becomes smoother.

Water Chamber - Next, the vapor comes to the inside of the dab rig pipe from the percolator diffuser. The water chamber is the space inside the dab rig to store water. Chamber and the percolator form a water filtration system of a dab rig.

Mouthpiece - This is where you should kiss your dab rig,mouthpiece is the part you should inhale from,you inhale the fume into your lungs from the mouthpiece.

Any material, design, or size of dab rig can have very excellent performance and cooling system.

Next, INHALCO will introduce you to several common types of a dab rig, and you can browse the following introduction and then adapt to your own needs, to choose the most suitable dab rig for yourself:

  • Glass Dab Rig

  • Silicone Dab Rig

Of course, glass pieces are art, a glass dab rig is pleasing, but if you are looking for a cheap and durable dab rig to start your dabbing jouney,I would say a silicone dab rig is totally worth it,because it's virtually unbreakable. 

A silicone dab rig is a must for travelers and party-goer, because silicone is a high temperature resistant and very durable material. Compared with glass, silicone is more elastic and not as fragile as glass, which is very friendly to novices. Whether you are a novice or not, if you want to start with a more affordable but well-performing dab rig, a silicone dab rig is your best choice.

  • Recycler Rig

Recycler rigs allow water to continue to flow repeatedly in the chamber of your rig by creating more chambers and recycling loop air paths. So that the steam is continually filtered in the chamber when you inhale, providing your lungs the silkiest hits but will not dilute the terpenes and flavors. These new unique dabbing devices are about to become the trend of the market.

How to Use a Dab Rig?

Follow our usage guide, and you just need a few simple steps to use a dab rig. Many newbies may find it difficult to operate a dab rig, but it is as simple as using bongs to smoke flowers and dry herbs. Their operations and steps are roughly the same, and the difference is that you use a dab rig to heat concentrate in the dab nail instead of the flowers in a bowl. Next is a detailed guide to using a dab rig!

  • Step 1. Add water in the chamber of the dab rig

Of course, the first step is to add water to the chamber of your dab rig. The amount of water only needs to cover the filter diffuser at the lower end of the dab rig, you can also add more water in an appropriate amount,so that the smoke can be fully cooled down and filtered by the water when it flows by perc to the chamber of the rig so that the vapor would be smoother.

  • Step 2. Place concentrate on dab tool

Next, it is the turn of the dab tool. Use a dab tool or dab wand to dig out a small amount of concentration first. It is different from putting dry herbs in the bong bowl when using a bong. You don't put the concentration in your quartz banger immediately, you set them aside first, and let's move on to the next step!

  • Step 3. Heating Quartz banger

Now take out your torch. The concentrate is heated to more than 350 degrees is enough to completely melt. Still, according to the research on the content, when heated to more than 455 °F, terpenes will be burned off by high temperatures, which will affect the flavor, so we recommend the heating temperature to be between 350-420 °F,. Still, for the stoner who is chasing the higher smoky cloud,you can try other higher temperatures. But generally, we won't prepare any temperature measurement equipment during dabbing, so we will teach you some tricks to achieve the best temperature. When you heat the quartz banger until it starts to turn red, the temperature at this time may be higher than the best temperature scope. At this time, you just need to static cool it down for about 15-20 seconds. At this time, the banger is exactly in the optimal temperature range. This trick works every time.

  • Step 4. Evaporative concentrates and inhale the smoke

Boom! Now we finally come to the one last step. Now your quartz banger (dab nail) has been heated to the right temperature, pick up the dab tool that you have placed the concentration on immediately, and extend it into your banger. You will see you The concentration starts to evaporate and smoke, and you can inhale this delicious fume. At this point, you have completed your first dabbing. Enjoy!

Dab Tools You Need 

Suppose you want to have a perfect dabbing experience. In that case, I think you may also need to learn about the following accessories and tools, and these small accessories can help your dabbing experience to obtain a huge improvement. Here we go, we will introduce you to the functions of these accessories And how they will work perfectly with your dab rig to provide you the most fantastic experience.

Banger is like a bong bowl, but dab rig uses a banger to hold concentrates instead of a bowl. The bowl is what a bong uses to hold various dry herbs. Banger is usually made of quartz, because compared with bowls, banger needs to withstand a much higher temperature to evaporate various concentrations and quartz is more durable. 

When dabbing with your dab rig, you need a professional dab torch to heat your banger. Why can't I use an ordinary lighter? Because the difference between dab torch and ordinary lighters is that a professional dab torch can heat the banger to between 250°F and 400°F in a short time to evaporate the concentrate in the dab nail difficult job for ordinary lighters.

The carb cap is like a lid that is placed on the top of your dab nail or banger. When you heat up your banger to vaporize the concentrate, cover the carb cab on the dab nail, the small holes on the carb cap will help you effectively reduce the airflow, ensure the concentration and flavor of the vapor you inhale, and prevent the loss of vapor, so carb cap is one of the essential partners of dab rigs.

Dab tool is made from many different materials. Most common dab tools are made from titanium and quartz or stainless steel, and their appearances are also very diverse. Dab tools can help you accurately take the concentrate portion you need, heat up your banger first, once your banger reaches the right temperature then use the dab tool to transfer concentrates into the dab nail to evaporate. 

Strongly recommend that every dab rig lover use a Reclaim Catcher. Reclaim catcher (also known as oil reclaimer) is used as an accessory device for dab rigs. When using the reclaimer, first install the reclaimer on the dab rig, and then place the banger on the top of the reclaim catcher. It is hard to imagine that this small extension device can save a lot of cost for stoners every year.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best temperature for dabbing?

For stoners who pursue different experiences, different temperatures mean different effects and experiences. Low-temperature dabbing is very popular, but this temperature is not enough for stoners who pursue thick clouds. The following introduction is a guide for different temperatures and corresponding experiences.

  • Low-temperature dabbing (315°F-450°F)

When banger temperature reaches 315 degrees, the terpenes and other ingredients in the concentrates begin to be released. Generally, a temperature of 350°F is enough to melt most of the waxes and concentrates, but it should be noted that the temperature of the low-temperature player who cares about the flavor should not exceed 450°F otherwise terpenes will be burned off.

  • Medium-temperature dabbing (455°F-600°F)

For the stoners who are chasing higher smoky clouds,this range of temperature can make cloud production higher than low-temperature dabbing but less flavor,because the terpenes would be burned off.

  • High-temperature dabbing (600°F-900°F)

After reaching this temperature of 600-900 degrees, the concentrates will evaporate at a very fast rate, and then produce a lot of thick smoke and cloud, but you may not experience the flavor, because the high temperature burns out the terpenes.
