The 8 Arms Tree Perc Ash Catcher adds powerful filtration to your water pipe, keeping it cleaner while cooling smoke for a smoother hit. As a general rule, choose the 90° angle for straight tubes and the 45° angle for beaker bongs.
This premium accessory by Green Flower is designed to upgrade your water pipe sessions. It adds an extra layer of water filtration that catches ash and debris, which keeps your main piece clean for much longer. The core of this piece is an 8-arm tree percolator that diffuses smoke for very effective cooling and smoothing.
We offer this ash catcher in both 14mm and 18mm joint sizes with your choice of a 45° or 90° angle, making it compatible with most bongs. By adding this second filtration chamber, you get a much smoother, less harsh hit without needing to buy a whole new water pipe.
Understanding the key specifications shows how each part helps create a better session. Every detail, from the percolator to the joint angle, is designed for performance.

Selecting the correct fit is the most important step to get the most from your new ash catcher. The wrong angle will make it sit tilted, while the wrong size just won't fit. Use this simple guide to find your perfect match.
Two key features work together to make this accessory a great upgrade for your setup.
An 8-arm tree percolator is built for maximum water diffusion. When smoke enters, it's pulled through eight separate arms, each with small slits. This action breaks the smoke into many tiny bubbles, which increases the surface area touching the water. This process cools and filters the smoke fast, removing harshness before it reaches your main chamber.
This accessory acts as the first line of defense against ash and resin. All the debris from your bowl is trapped in the ash catcher's water chamber, not your bong's. This means your main piece stays cleaner longer, protecting the flavor of your herb and saving you from frequent, tough cleaning jobs.
While the 8-Arm Tree Perc excels at cooling, other styles offer different benefits like less drag. Here’s a quick comparison of popular ash catchers we carry to help you find the best fit for your budget.

Keeping your 8-arm ash catcher clean is essential for its performance. Regular care ensures fresh flavor and proper airflow. Since the internal arms are delicate, we recommend a soaking method instead of shaking.
For a deep clean, first rinse the piece with hot water. Next, fill it with a mix of 91%+ Isopropyl Alcohol and coarse salt. Let it soak for 30 to 60 minutes. This allows the solution to dissolve resin without rough shaking that could damage the perc arms. After soaking, rinse it thoroughly with warm water. For best results, change the water daily and deep clean weekly.
A simple routine before and after your sessions will ensure you always get great performance from your ash catcher.
After each session, it's best to empty the dirty water and give the ash catcher a quick rinse. This simple step prevents resin buildup and makes deep cleans much easier. Store it safely where it cannot be knocked over.
This 8-arm ash catcher is a great upgrade for nearly any setup. If you want to check out other styles or percolator types, feel free to browse our complete collection of filtration accessories.
