The Encore Dry Ash Catcher traps ash and debris before it reaches your bong, without adding water, so you get a cleaner piece and smooth, unrestricted airflow, all for $24.95. It's the simplest, lowest-maintenance way to keep your glass clean. Here's why a dry catcher is so handy.

Cleaner glass, no extra water
A standard ash catcher adds a water chamber, which means more to fill and clean. A dry catcher skips the water entirely: it simply catches ash, resin, and debris in its chamber before they reach your main piece, keeping your bong cleaner without changing how your hit feels. That means less drag, less cleaning, and no extra water to manage, ideal if you want low-maintenance protection for your glass.
Why choose a dry catcher
- No water needed, catches debris while keeping airflow open.
- Keeps your bong cleaner so you wash the main piece less often.
- Three joint options for wide compatibility.
- Bold colored accents with a colored decal.
- Compact single-chamber design.

Who it's for
This catcher is for the smoker who wants a cleaner bong with the least possible fuss. There's no second water chamber to fill or dump, it just quietly keeps ash out of your main piece. It's an easy, affordable upgrade and a useful add-on gift for anyone who hates cleaning resin out of their bong.
Buying tips

- Keep a spare bowl handy, browse bowl slides.
Frequently asked questions
What is a dry ash catcher?
It's an ash catcher that traps ash and debris in its chamber without using water. It keeps your bong cleaner while leaving airflow open, with less to fill and clean than a water-filled catcher.
Does a dry catcher filter smoke?
It catches ash and debris rather than filtering smoke through water, so hits feel about the same as without it, just cleaner for your main piece. If you want water filtration, choose a wet ash catcher instead.
Which joint size do I need?
It comes in 1445 (14mm 45°), 1490 (14mm 90°), and 1890 (18mm 90°). Match your bong's joint size and angle, our joint sizes guide can help.
