They use a water filtration process that takes place in the water chamber where water is held and diffused (a downstem and percolator uses the water chamber to filter and cool down smoke). Bongs are water pipes referred to as filtration devices used to smoke marijuana or dry cannabis flowers. A bong with a water chamber allows for smoke to be optimally cooled, resulting in much smoother, cleaner, and stronger inhales. Bongs are also great for those looking to achieve an intense high using less marijuana as compared to other methods of smoking cannabis. Size is another factor to take into consideration when looking for your next water pipe. Bongs range anywhere from small, handheld sizes that can be less than 6” inches tall to massive bongs that stand over 20” inches tall and rest on the floor while you hit them!
A larger bong has more room for percolation and more room for special contraptions and accessories such as ice catches and bowl attachments, which enhance the smoking experience. All of our Dab Rigs are made with high quality borosilicate glass but sometimes you just want a thicker more durable bong. I’m sure you saw our viral video that got 20 million views where we hammered a nail into a piece of wood with one of our thick glass bongs. Thick bongs have more weight to them so less chance of them tipping over and if they do tip over there’s a better chance of them not breaking. Beaker bongs are a tried and true classic design that will work flawlessly every single time you use it. They are very easy to clean and allow you to add a lot of water for a good chug when you smoke them.
What makes a big bong so scary to rip is that you can easily fill the whole thing up with smoke without realizing you did. Then when you go to pull the bowl, you get a massive surprise. Upon contact with the water, the smoke is instantly cooled degrees to a lower temperature that doesn’t hurt the throat.

It’s important to note that Dab Rigs don’t actually filter out any harmful toxins or carcinogens, they primarily just cool the smoke down before you inhale. Some bongs also offer percolators (percs) for greater diffusion, condensing, and cooling smoke even more for massive rips! However, a lot of experienced cannabis users tend to use beaker bongs because they are just easier to clean.
Additionally, we don’t hear our customers complaining of cracks or breakages, which means our bongs and water pipes have a higher shelf life. This also means that your Fat Buddha Glass smoking accessories are going to be a long-time-serving investment. Not to mention that the glass water bongs you find in stores have often collected dust over time. Glass bongs consist of a few elements; a bowl, a carb, a downstem, a base, and a tube.
Once you understand the components of a bong, using a water pipe is like riding a bike, you can ride or smoke anywhere. Using glass bongs provide the most tasteful, smoothest, and healthiest way to smoke herb. Glass bongs deliver more water filtration than bubblers or dab rigs and certainly more than pipes or blunts. Silicone bongs leave a plastic aftertaste and use minimal percolators and water filtration. Borosilicate glass (which is what Freeze Pipe’s bongs are made from) was designed and is used for testing elements in laboratories.
Typically the larger the joint size, the larger the hit you will get from a bong. If you prefer smaller and tastier hits we recommend a 14mm sized bong. However if you prefer as much smoke as possible, you can go for an 18mm. In most cases larger bongs have 18mm joints while medium sized bongs have 14mm and small bongs have 10mm joints. For for in depth information about bong joint sizes, be sure to check out or bong joint size guide. Bongs can vary in size and have various distinctive functions and features.
