The Encore 3-Pack Low-Profile Slitted Diffuser Downstems give you three smooth, diffused replacement stems for 14mm and 18mm bongs, so you always have a clean spare on hand, all for just $13.95. It's the cheapest upgrade that noticeably improves your hits. Here's why every bong owner should keep a set.
Diffused hits, cheaper by the pack
A downstem is the tube that pulls smoke into your water, and a slitted, diffused stem breaks that smoke into microbubbles for a cooler, smoother, easier pull than a plain open stem. These are low-profile stems built for clean airflow, and because they come in a 3-pack, you can keep spares for when one gets stuck, cloudy, or cracked, no more waiting on a replacement to use your bong.
Why keep a 3-pack
- Always have a clean spare, swap one in while the other soaks.
- Diffused, slitted design for smoother, cooler hits.
- Low-profile build for clean, easy airflow.
- Covers 14mm and 18mm bong setups.
- Unbeatable value, three stems for $13.95.
How to pick the right size
Match your bong's joint size (14mm is the most common; larger pieces use 18mm) and the length, measured from the bottom of the joint to the stem tip, so it reaches into the water without hitting the base. Not sure how to measure? Follow our quick guide on how to measure a downstem.
Frequently asked questions
What is a diffused downstem?
A diffused downstem has slits or cuts near the bottom that break smoke into microbubbles, cooling and smoothing your hits more than a plain open-end stem, with an easier, less draggy pull.
What size downstem do I need?
Match your bong's joint size (14mm is most common, 18mm on larger pieces) and the length, measured from the bottom of the joint to the tip. The stem should reach into the water without touching the base.
Why buy a 3-pack of downstems?
Downstems get cloudy, clogged, or occasionally stuck or broken. A 3-pack means you always have a clean spare ready, so your bong is never out of commission, and it costs less per stem.
Are these downstems diffused?
Yes. They're low-profile slitted diffuser downstems, so they break your smoke into fine bubbles for smoother, cooler hits.
