What advantages do glass pipes offer?
Glass has special physical characteristics. It is temperature resistant because it conducts heat poorly. This will prevent overheating. In addition, glass does not give off any own flavor. This makes pipes made of glass an ideal smoking device for those looking for a genuine and mild taste. Residues can be easily removed. Black Leaf sells only laboratory quality glass pipes manufactured by specialised companies using high quality borosilicate glass.
Form and function of glass pipes
One reason for the growing popularity of glass pipes lies in the diversity of the offer. Black Leaf offers pipes of glass in every imaginable color and shape. From the Gandalf pipe with a long shank to glass pipes that glow in the dark or glass pipes with water cooling, which can be pre-cooled in the refrigerator. What appears to some as a gimmick, but usually fulfills a purpose. Luminous pipes are easier to find in the dark and a long handle improves cooling as well as a water reservoir in the bowl.
The right glass pipe for every application
Black Leaf has the widest range of glass pipes for all conceivable applications and substances such as herbs, hash or oil.
Glass Pipe with adapter
If you want to smoke very mellow, choose a glass pipe with an adapter for an activated carbon filter.
One Hitter
One Hitter have an extra small bowl, ideal for hash without tabacco. The bowls of pure pipes are slightly larger and therefore also suitable for herbs.
Kawumm
Kawumms are available with different sized heads and have a kick hole at the end of the shank.
And if you are looking for a glass pipe that can be variably used for all applications, then you will need a mouthpiece with standard ground fitting into which different bowls can be inserted.
Dabbing pipes or mechanical vaporizers
Dabbing or vaporising is becoming increasingly popular. In this method, the smoking product is not burned, but evaporated. That means, it does not come into direct contact with fire, but only with heat. The heat releases the desired active ingredients, without setting free the pollutants that arise during combustion. Vaporizing is especially popular for inhaling oil, wax or shatter. Therefore, dabbing pipes are also called oil pipes or mechanical vaporizers. But you can also vaporize herbs or hash.
A special form of Dabbing pipe is the Nectar Collector, where the tip is heated and the oil is applied to a carrier outside the pipe.
Accessories for glass pipes
To care for a pipe and to be able to use it over a long period of time, only very few accessories are needed.
Screen
The most common accessory for pipes is the screen. We distinguish flat screens which are pressed into the bowl and bowl screens which are hung in the bowl.
Pipe cleaner
First, a simple pipe cleaner to remove the residues that accumulate when smoking in the shank.
Storage and transport
For the storage and transport of pipes there are numerous accessories such as boxes, or bags in the shop.
