8 Inches Showerhead Perc Translucent Side Spout Oil Rig

We chose every part of this rig to create a better dabbing experience. The table below shows how each specification gives you a direct benefit.

Note: Banger and carb cap are sold separately.

The combination of these features results in a rig that is reliable for daily use and effective at preserving the flavor of your concentrates.

• An 8-inch height makes the rig easy to store and comfortable to hold.
• The sidecar neck design is a proven way to keep water from reaching the user.
• Borosilicate glass is the industry standard for quality dab rigs due to its durability.

Beyond the specs, the showerhead perc and sidecar neck work together to solve common dabbing complaints like harsh hits and splashback. It's a simple but highly effective system.

How Does The Showerhead Perc Improve Smoothness?

The showerhead percolator is a bell-shaped piece of glass with many small slits at its base. When you inhale, vapor is forced through these slits, breaking it into hundreds of tiny bubbles. This process greatly increases the vapor's surface area that touches the water, leading to fast cooling and filtering. The result is a much smoother and more comfortable hit compared to rigs with no perc.

What Is The Advantage Of A Sidecar Neck?

A sidecar neck attaches to the side of the rig's main chamber instead of going straight up. This angled design creates a longer path for the vapor to travel. Its main benefit is acting as a natural splash guard, making sure water stays where it belongs. It also gives you a more relaxed angle for inhaling, which reduces neck strain during a session.

These two features work together to give you a smooth, clean, and comfortable experience from start to finish.

• The showerhead perc diffuses vapor through multiple slits for better cooling.
• The side spout moves the mouthpiece away from the main chamber to prevent splashes.
• This ergonomic design allows for a more relaxed posture during use.

Getting the best performance from this showerhead rig is easy. Setting the right water level and heating properly are key to smooth, flavorful dabs. Follow these simple steps for a perfect session.

1. Fill with Water: Pour fresh, filtered water into the mouthpiece until the showerhead perc is submerged by about a quarter-inch.
2. Test the Water Level: Take a gentle pull without a banger. The water should bubble nicely without splashing into the neck. Adjust if you need to.
3. Attach Your Banger: Place a compatible quartz banger into the rig's joint. (Note: Banger not included).
4. Heat the Banger: Use a torch to heat the banger for about 20-30 seconds. Do not heat it until it glows red.
5. Cool Down: Let the banger cool for 30-45 seconds. This step is key for low-temp dabs that preserve flavor.
6. Apply & Inhale: Put your concentrate in the banger, cover it with a carb cap , and inhale slowly from the mouthpiece.

What Is The Right Water Level For This Rig?

The best water level for a showerhead perc is just enough to cover all the slits at the bottom. A good rule of thumb is to fill it until the water line is about 1/4 inch above the perc. This ensures full diffusion without overfilling, which can cause splashback.

Following these steps will help you get the best performance and flavor from your rig.

• The correct water level should cover the percolator's slits for the best diffusion.
• Heating the banger and letting it cool before use.
• Using a carb cap helps vaporize concentrates well at lower temperatures.

This showerhead rig delivers great smoothness for its price. Here is how it compares to other common types of dab rigs in the same budget range.

For its price, this showerhead rig offers a great balance of smoothness, flavor, and ease of use.

• Showerhead percs are a popular mid-range option known for balancing flavor and filtration.
• Simple designs without percolators offer strong flavor but less cooling.
• Recyclers provide maximum cooling but can be more complex and costly.

Keeping your rig clean is essential for the best taste and performance. We suggest cleaning it every few uses to stop residue from building up. A clean rig ensures you only taste your concentrates.

What Is The Best Way To Clean The Glass?

For a deep clean, empty the old water and rinse the rig with hot water. Make a cleaning solution with isopropyl alcohol (91%+) and coarse salt. Pour it into your rig, plug the openings , and shake it hard for a few minutes. The salt scrubs the inside. Let it soak if needed, then rinse it well with warm water until all the alcohol is gone. Let it air dry before use.

Regular cleaning takes only a few minutes and greatly improves your sessions.

• A solution of isopropyl alcohol and salt is a very effective way to clean glass rigs.
• Frequent cleaning prevents buildup that can affect the flavor of your dabs.
• Always rinse your rig thoroughly with water after using any cleaning solution.
