The Core Reactor Quartz Banger uses a solid quartz puck at its base to hold heat exceptionally well. This provides longer, more consistent low-temperature sessions without needing to reheat.
This 90° version is made for dab rigs with a vertical joint, which is common for beaker styles. As part of our premium Yellow Line (YL), this banger is a high-performance nail designed for the best heat retention. Unlike a standard banger, it has a thick, solid quartz puck at the bottom. This "reactor" core soaks up intense heat and releases it slowly, creating a stable dabbing surface that stays at the perfect temperature for longer. This allows you to vaporize your concentrates fully without rushing.
We engineered every detail of the Core Reactor for performance. This table shows how each technical feature gives you a better dabbing experience.
| Specification | Value (What It Is) | Benefit (Why It Matters) |
|---|---|---|
| Solid Quartz Reactor Puck | A thick, raised disc of pure quartz at the base of the bucket. | Stores and releases heat slowly, ensuring consistent low-temp dabs and preserving flavor. |
| 100% Quartz Material | Made entirely from high-quality fused quartz. | Offers excellent heat resistance, durability, and a clean, pure taste. |
| 90° Joint Angle | The neck connects to the bucket at a right angle. | Keeps the bucket level and stable on dab rigs with a 90° (vertical) joint. |
| 25mm Flat Top Bucket | A 25mm outer diameter bucket with a flat rim. | Provides plenty of surface area and works with many different carb caps for efficient use. |
| Frosted Joint | A sandblasted, textured finish on the connection point. | Creates a more secure, airtight seal with your rig to prevent vapor from escaping. |
Choosing the right joint size is key for an airtight fit. This banger has a male joint, which fits into a female joint on your dab rig. To find your size, measure the opening on your rig or check its product details. We offer three standard sizes to fit most rigs.
Besides the main reactor core, several design details make this banger a great choice for daily dabbing. From the quality of our Yellow Line to the functional flat top, each part is designed to improve your session.
The "YL" means this banger is part of our Yellow Line, a collection known for quality and smart design. A key feature is the frosted joint, which ensures a snug, secure fit with your rig. This prevents any wobbling or air leaks that could waste vapor, guaranteeing a reliable session every time.
The banger's flat top provides a stable surface for your carb cap. This universal design works with a wide range of caps, including bubble and directional flow styles. This helps you get a perfect seal to direct airflow, vaporizing every bit of your concentrate for maximum efficiency and flavor.
It can be hard to choose the right quartz banger. Here’s a quick comparison of how the Core Reactor compares to our other popular options in a similar price range.
| Attribute | Core Reactor | Standard Flat Top | Terp Slurper |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary Use | Heat Retention | All-Purpose | Max Vaporization |
| Heat-Up Time | Moderate (30-40s) | Fast (20-30s) | Longer (45-60s) |
| Cleaning | Easy | Easiest | Difficult |
| Ideal For | Long sessions, flavor | Beginners, quick dabs | Large dabs, clouds |
Getting the best results from your Core Reactor requires a slightly different approach than a standard banger. Following these steps will help you get a perfect low-temperature dab every time.
What You'll Need:
For low-temp dabs, timing is key. With the Core Reactor, aim the torch flame at the solid quartz puck, not the walls. A good starting point is to heat it for 30-35 seconds, then let it cool down for 45-60 seconds. You can use a timer to stay consistent. The goal is a surface temperature between 450-550°F for the best flavor.
The Perfect Dab Workflow:
Yes, you can use terp pearls with a Core Reactor banger. The pearls spin around the center puck, helping distribute your concentrate for even heating. This combination can improve vaporization, especially with larger dabs. Start with one or two 4mm-6mm pearls for the best results in the 25mm bucket.
Keeping your Core Reactor clean is the best way to get pure flavor and help it last. Leftover material can build up, reducing heat retention and causing permanent cloudiness, or "chazzing."
The best cleaning method is to tidy up after every use while the banger is still warm. After your dab, use a cotton swab to mop up any leftover residue. For tougher spots, dip another swab in isopropyl alcohol and gently scrub the warm surface. This simple "q-tip tech" stops buildup before it can start.
Chazzing happens when leftover residue is burned onto the quartz or when you overheat the banger. To prevent this, always clean out residue after each dab and never heat your banger until it glows bright red. For heavy buildup, you can soak the banger in isopropyl alcohol for a few hours. Never use a torch to burn off residue, as this can cause tiny cracks and ruin the quartz.
Get the most out of your Core Reactor banger with the right accessories. A good carb cap is a must for low-temp dabs, and clean tools are key to a great experience. Look through our collections to find the perfect additions.
