Types of Smoking Pipes

There are several types of smoking pipes available, each with its own unique features and benefits. Below, you’ll find the most popular ones on the market. 

Bongs

With their sleek designs, smooth hits, and undeniable cool factor, bongs are the perfect way to enjoy your favorite herb in style. Whether you’re a seasoned smoker or a curious newbie, a bong is a must-have addition to your smoking arsenal.

Glass bongs come in a variety of shapes and sizes, which makes them visually appealing. The transparent glass also allows you to see the smoke as it travels through the bong, creating a mesmerizing effect. They’re known for providing a smoother smoking experience compared to other materials like metal or plastic since they’re non-porous and don’t affect the taste or aroma of your herb.

Check out our very own Blunt Park Universe glass bongs such as the Lil Leaf Bubble Breaker, UFO Glass & Silicone GID, High Fashion Water Pipe, and Metalic Floral Diamond Water Pipe. We also carry other top brands such as Pulsar, Tattoo Glass, Grav Labs, Famous Brandz, and Glowfly. 

Silicone bongs come in a variety of colors and designs, so you can find one that suits your style. They’re incredibly durable and resistant to breaking, making them a great choice for clumsy smokers or those who frequently take their bongs on the go. Plus, they’re lightweight and easy to clean in comparison to other types of bongs. 

We offer several Blunk Park Universe silicone bongs in a variety of colors, sizes, and designs. We also carry silicone bongs made by Piecemaker and Ooze. 

Bubblers

The bubblers look like a cross between a bong and a handheld kaleidoscope, but don’t let its small size fool you. The bubbler packs a punch that will leave you feeling higher than a kite. The water filtration system cools and cleans the smoke, giving you a smooth hit every time.

By cooling the smoke, bubblers make it easier on your throat and lungs. This can be especially beneficial for people who have sensitive lungs or are prone to coughing. Plus, you’ll taste more of the natural flavor of your cannabis.

Our Wacky Bowlz and Blunt Park Universe ceramic smoking pipes are crafted from the highest quality ceramic, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable smoking experience every time.

Ceramic pipes don’t add any unwanted flavors to your smoking experience, so you can fully enjoy the taste of your cannabis. Plus, they are strong and sturdy, which means they can withstand a lot of use and won’t break easily. Ceramic pipes are very easy to clean, which means you can maintain their appearance and functionality with minimal effort.

Dab Rigs

With their futuristic designs and cutting-edge technology, Pulsar and Ooze dab rigs are the perfect way to elevate your smoking experience to the next level. These little beauties are like bongs on steroids, designed to deliver a smooth, powerful hit that will leave you feeling like a superhero.

The main benefit of using a dab rig is that it allows you to enjoy the full flavor and potency of your concentrates. When you use a dab rig, the high temperature of the rig vaporizes your concentrate, creating a thick, flavorful smoke that is rich in cannabinoids and terpenes. This means that you get more of the active ingredients in your concentrate, which can lead to a faster, more intense high. 

Dab Straws

Looking for a quick and easy way to enjoy your favorite concentrates? Look no further than dab straws. These nifty little gadgets are perfect for on-the-go dabs or quick hits at home. Just heat up the tip, dip it in your concentrate, and inhale. It’s like a tiny, portable dab rig that fits right in your pocket.

One of the main benefits of using a dab straw is that it allows for a more controlled and precise dabbing experience. Unlike traditional dab rigs, which can be bulky and difficult to maneuver, dab straws are small, portable, and easy to use. This makes them ideal for on-the-go dabbing or for those who prefer a more discreet dabbing experience.

Whether you’re looking for something eye-catching or simple, we offer a wide variety of dab rigs. Check out our Blunt Park Universe AK47 Dab Straw and Cactus Silicon Dab Straw. We also carry dab rigs made by Pulsar, Honey Dabber, Honeybird, Ooze, and many other brands.

Gravity Bongs

Gravity bongs: Because sometimes, regular bongs just don’t give you the lift you need. With a little bit of physics and a whole lot of creativity, these bongs use gravity to create a potent hit that will send you soaring. Just remember: what goes up must come down, so be prepared for a serious ride.

If you’re ready for a big hit, check out the gravity bongs we carry by Pulsar, Grav Labs, and Stündenglass.

These pipes are not only functional but also stylish, with a variety of designs that will make you the envy of all your smoking buddies.

Metal Pipes

Looking for a way to light up in style? Check out our metal smoking pipes by Blunt Park Universe, Pulsar, and Journey Pipe.

With our pipes, you’ll feel like a rockstar every time you take a hit. Plus, they’re easy to clean and won’t break the bank.

One benefit of using metal cannabis pipes is their durability. Unlike glass smoking pipes that can easily break and shatter, metal pipes are much more resilient and can withstand accidental drops and rough handling. Additionally, metal pipes don’t retain heat like glass pipes, which can make for a smoother smoking experience.

Pipe Mugs

With a handle shaped like a tobacco pipe, our pipe mugs will make you feel like you’re sipping tea at a fancy tea party while also indulging in a little bit of cheekiness. Plus, the unique design means you can hold your mug with your pinky finger out like a proper English lady or gentleman. So go ahead, add a little bit of whimsy to your morning coffee routine with our pipe mugs made by Blunt Park Universe, Raw, and Cheech and Chong.

The benefit of using cannabis pipe mugs is that they provide a convenient and discreet way to smoke cannabis. With a built-in pipe in the handle of the mug, users can easily and discreetly smoke without having to carry around a separate pipe or a pack of rolling papers. This makes it a great option for those who want to enjoy cannabis in a more low-key way, whether at home or on the go. 

Tasters & One-Hitters

Tasters and one-hitters are the sophisticated way to enjoy your favorite herb. They’re perfect for those who want to savor the flavor and aroma of their cannabis without overdoing it. With a cannabis taster, you can take a small hit and savor the subtle flavors of your cannabis like a true connoisseur. And if you’re on the go, a one-hitter is the perfect discreet option for a quick and easy hit.

Using a taster or one-hitter ensures that you’re not smoking more cannabis than you need to. These devices allow you to take small, measured hits, which can help you stretch your cannabis supply further.

Factors to Consider When Buying Smoking Pipes

When buying smoking pipes, there are several factors to consider. Here are a few:

• Materials: Pipes can be made from a variety of materials, including glass, metal, and ceramic. Each material has its own pros and cons, so choose one that suits your needs.
• Size: Pipes come in a range of sizes, from small pocket-sized pipes to large bongs. Consider how and where you plan to use the pipe and choose a size that fits your lifestyle.
• Shape: The shape of the pipe can affect how it smokes. Some pipes have a straight tube design, while others have a curved or angled shape. Choose a shape that you feel comfortable holding and using.
• Bowl size: The bowl size determines how much cannabis you can pack at once. Consider how much you typically smoke and choose a bowl size that suits your needs.
• Cleaning: Some pipes are easier to clean than others. If you don’t want to spend a lot of time cleaning your pipe, choose a design that is easy to disassemble and clean.
• Price: Pipes can range in price from a few dollars to several hundred dollars. Consider your budget and choose a pipe that fits within your price range.

Tips for Using Smoking Pipes

Using a pipe for the first time can be a bit intimidating, but it’s actually quite simple once you know what to do. Here are some tips for using a cannabis pipe:

• Grind your cannabis: To get the most out of your pipe, grind your material to a fine consistency. This will ensure a consistent burn and help prevent clogging.
• Pack your bowl: Pack your bowl loosely to allow for proper airflow. You don’t want to pack it too tight or too loose.
• Apply flame: Hold a lighter or hemp wick over the bowl and apply heat to the cannabis. Be sure to rotate the bowl to ensure an even burn.
• Inhale and exhale: Take a deep breath and inhale the smoke into your lungs. Hold the smoke for a few seconds before exhaling.
• Clean your pipe: Over time, resin will build up in your pipe and can clog the airflow. Clean your pipe regularly with rubbing alcohol and salt to prevent buildup and ensure that you’re getting the best possible hit.

Caring for Your Pipe

Maintaining and caring for your pipe is essential if you want it to last for a long time and deliver smooth hits every time you use it. Here are a few tips to help you keep your cannabis pipe in great shape:

• Clean your pipe regularly: Use a pipe cleaner or a small brush to remove any resin or debris from the inside of your pipe. You can also soak your pipe in isopropyl alcohol to loosen any stubborn residue.
• Store your pipe properly: Keep your pipe in a safe and secure location where it won’t get knocked over or damaged. You can also use a pipe case or bag to protect it when you’re on the go.
• Replace damaged parts: If you notice any cracks, chips, or other damage to your pipe, it’s important to fix them as soon as possible. You may need to replace a broken bowl or stem to keep your pipe functional.
• Use high-quality cannabis: Low-quality cannabis can leave behind more residue and debris in your pipe, which can make it harder to clean and maintain. Stick to high-quality strains to keep your pipe in good shape.
