DAB RIGS & BONGS

Dab Rigs and Bongs are glass devices that you smoke your favorite flower or concentrates out of. A Dab Rig is for concentrates, whereas a Bong is for flower use. These water pipe pieces can come in various sizes, designs, and color options.

The Difference Between Dab Rigs And Bongs.

Your main difference between a Dab Rig and a Bong is simply what you are smoking and which one you are smoking out of. Flower is smoked out of a Bong, and concentrates are smoked from a Dab Rig. It is not recommended that you smoke flower and wax out of the same device, as it can alter the taste of your products.
