Beads & Inserts FAQ

1. What do beads and inserts actually do?

They help control heat inside your quartz banger, giving you smoother vaporization and more consistent hits. They also work well with carb caps, creating airflow that helps your concentrates heat evenly

2. Can I use beads and inserts with mini rigs or recyclers?

Absolutely. Mini rigs and recyclers pair perfectly with inserts because they already focus on flavor and airflow. Inserts enhance that by keeping the temperature stable

3. Do inserts work with regular glass bongs?

Yes — if your bong is set up for concentrates. People use them with classic beaker, classic straight, percolator, and even heavy pounder setups that have a quartz banger connection

4. Will beads or inserts affect the taste of my hits?

They improve it. By helping your banger heat evenly, they prevent scorching and preserve terps for a cleaner, richer flavor

5. Are beads and inserts hard to clean?

Not at all. A quick soak in ISO brings them back to new. Just avoid using them in a glowing-hot banger — give your quartz a few seconds to cool before dropping them in

6. What size beads or inserts should I use?

Most people stick to 4–6mm beads, but it depends on the depth and shape of your quartz banger. If you use a spinner cap or directional carb cap, smaller beads usually move better
