Inserts are quartz/glass pieces designed to go into your nail to aid in vaporizing your concentrates. There are several different types, from smaller insert pieces to full cups to hold your dab in while it is placed into the nail. Honey Cups, also known as insert dishes, are made from quartz that you place your concentrates into before placing the insert into your heated nail. The banger insert protects your concentrate from coming into direct contact with the nail, which can leave a nasty residue on your nail and affect the taste of your concentrate. If you're using a quartz insert, you can be sure you're getting the most out of your concentrates. Other types of inserts spin or react to the airflow created in your nail to further aid in vaporization efficiency.
Why Should I Use a Quartz Insert?
You might want to use an insert in your banger for many reasons. One reason is that it can help you get a cleaner hit from your nail. When you use an insert, the quartz/glass doesn't absorb any of the CBD concentrates, so you can be sure that you're getting all the flavor and none of the impurities. Another reason to use an insert is to protect your nail from residue build-up. If you don't want to deal with the hassle of cleaning your nail after every session, then using an insert can help prolong the life of your nail. Finally, quartz/glass inserts can also help improve the taste of your concentrate. Because quartz/glass is a very stable material, it doesn't impart any flavor of its own onto the concentrate. This means you'll be able to taste the authentic flavor of your concentrates rather than the taste of the nail. No matter your reasons for using an insert, there's no doubt they can provide you with a better dabbing experience. If you're looking for a way to improve your banger, then inserts are definitely worth considering. This article will give you more information about what are quartz/glass inserts and how they work, as well as why you should use them.
What Are the Different Types of Quartz Inserts?
There are two main types of quartz inserts:
- Drop-in inserts and
- Bucket inserts
Drop-in inserts are made to fit snugly into the bottom of your quartz banger. These inserts typically have a small hole in the center that allows you to place your concentrate directly onto the quartz. Bucket inserts, on the other hand, are made to fit over the top of your quartz banger. These inserts have a large bucket-like chamber that can hold a larger amount of concentrate. Both types of banger insert can offer great results, so it's really up to personal preference as to which one you choose.
Types Of Quartz Inserts?
Honey Pearls & Capsule
One of the most popular glass inserts is the honey pearl or capsule. Honey Pearls are small, round balls that fit snugly into the banger and help to distribute heat evenly. Airflow will cause these to spin, helping to spread the oil to all the hot parts of the nail. They also provide a smooth surface for your concentrates to slide off, making them ideal for those who want to avoid sticking. Honey Capsules are similar to pearls but shaped like a capsule or pill. These create a slightly different effect when airflow is introduced by tumbling and spinning, serving the same purpose as Honey Pearls.
Quartz Dishes
A Quartz Dish or Honey Cup is a quartz dish designed to hold your concentrate while placed into a hot nail or cold started. One of the main benefits of using a Honey Cup is that it will melt your dab with less direct heat and keep your banger clean.
Dab Screw
Dab Screws are for use with a Honeysuckle or Slurper design. Placing into the chamber of the nail airflow will cause the screw to spin, drawing your concentrates up to aid in the very effective vaporization of your product.
Glass Terp Chain
A Glass Terp Chain is a ball used as a carb cap with a chain connected to it that hangs into your nail. Airflow will cause the chain section to whip around, aiding in the vaporization of your product.
Quad Cores
Quad Core inserts are placed into a nail before heating. They will aid in heat retention and moving when airflow is exposed. This will help spread the oil around your nail and create more surface area, which aids in the vaporization of your product.
What is the difference Between Quartz and Glass Inserts?
The main difference between a quartz and glass insert is obviously the material they are made from. Quartz is a much stronger and more durable form of glass and can withstand much higher temperatures than glass.
How to Size Out Your Banger Insert?
Sizing your insert is very important. All sizes for inserts are listed in millimeters. You will want to ensure that you are getting an insert that is smaller than your nail, or else it will not fit, or it may get stuck in your nail if it is too tight of a fit. For example, If you use a banger with an outer diameter of 25mm, you would want to use a banger insert of 20mm or less. An excellent tip to help size your banger is that 25mm is the exact same diameter as a quarter. Honey Pearls and Pills are useable in most nails, while screws and marble sets are more commonly used with the Honey Suckle or Terp Slurper Designs.
How do I keep Dab inserts clean?
You will always want to make sure you are keeping all of your inserts clean. A simple ritual of soaking them in isopropyl alcohol and then wiping down with a paper towel will keep your Nail inserts looking brand new.
Which Is the Best Insert for Quartz Banger?
The best insert for a traditional quartz banger would probably be the Honey Pearls. When paired with a Honey Hive Carb Cap, you can watch these pearls whip around your banger, spreading your concentrate to every nook and cranny of your banger. However, do not be afraid to experiment with different inserts or combinations. The possibilities are endless!
How Do I Use a Quartz Insert?
Using an insert is really easy: You'll need to heat up your nail using a torch. Once the nail is hot, carefully place your insert into the banger.
-
Use a dabber to place your concentrate into the center of the insert.
-
Place the carb cap over the nail and inhale the vapor through your dab rig mouthpiece.
