About the Product

The Hittn Fire Swirl is a stylish glass accessory that keeps your water pipe clean by catching ash and adding a layer of water filtration. For the best fit, a 45° angle model typically suits beaker bongs, while a 90° angle is best for straight tubes.

This is a quality ash catcher made to improve how your favorite water pipe looks and works. By trapping ash and other debris, it keeps your main piece much cleaner for longer. It has a simple diffuser inside that gives you an extra round of water filtration, which cools and smooths out every pull. Its most notable feature is the swirl of vibrant, American-made color rods inside the glass, making every ash catcher a unique piece of art.

  • Pros: Keeps your bong water cleaner, adds smooth percolation, has a vibrant and unique look, and is built with durable borosilicate glass.
  • Cons: Adds some weight to your setup, needs its own cleaning, and may require an adapter to fit bongs with recessed joints. A drop-down ash catcher can also help with recessed joints.

This accessory is a great choice for keeping your setup clean and adding a visual flair with its colorful glass design.

  • It traps ash and debris before they can get into your main water chamber.
  • It is made with vivid American color rod accents for a one-of-a-kind appearance.
  • It provides an extra stage of water filtration for smoother hits.

Product Specifications

Knowing the main features of the Hittn Fire Swirl helps you see the value in its design and function. From the glass it's made of to the joint options, every part matters.

Specification Value Benefit
Material Borosilicate Glass Resists heat and daily use, helping to prevent cracks and ensure long life.
Design Accents American Color Rods Adds a unique, artistic swirl of color that won’t fade, making your setup pop.
Filtration Submerged Diffuser Offers an initial stage of cooling and diffusion for a smoother, less harsh draw.
Joint Options 14mm or 18mm Male Lets you pick the right size for a secure, airtight seal with your 14mm or 18mm female joint.
Angle Options 45° or 90° Keeps the ash catcher sitting upright and stable by matching your bong's joint angle.

The mix of strong borosilicate glass, a smart design, and artistic color makes this a dependable and stylish upgrade.

  • Borosilicate glass is the industry standard for high-quality scientific and smoking glassware.
  • Matching the joint angle and size is key for stability and creating an airtight seal.
  • The diffuser provides real water filtration to cool down smoke or vapor.

How Do I Choose The Right Size And Angle?

Picking the correct size and angle is the most important step for a proper fit. Joints that don't match won't seal right, and the wrong angle can make your piece unstable. This guide will help you choose correctly for your water pipe.

Ash Catcher Fit Checklist

  1. Check Your Joint Gender: This Hittn Ash Catcher has a male joint. It is made to fit into a water pipe that has a female joint.
  2. Measure Your Joint Size: Use a dime for a quick check. If a dime can fit inside your bong's joint, you need an 18mm size. If the dime rests on top without falling in, you need a 14mm size.
  3. Determine Your Joint Angle:
    • 90-Degree Angle: Pick this if your joint points straight up from your piece. This is common for straight tube bongs and most recycler rigs.
    • 45-Degree Angle: Pick this if your joint comes out at a slant. This is the standard for most beaker-style bongs.

Simply match your bong's joint gender, size, and angle. As a rule of thumb, most beaker bongs use a 45° angle, while straight tubes often use 90°.

  • An ash catcher must match the joint gender, size (14mm/18mm), and angle (45°/90°).
  • A 90° angle is for vertical joints, which are typically found on straight tubes.
  • A 45° angle is for slanted joints, which are common on beaker bongs.

What Features Make The Hittn Fire Swirl Stand Out?

More than just a functional part, the Hittn Fire Swirl ash catcher is known for its unique artistic touches that turn a utility item into a true centerpiece.

What Makes The Fire Swirl Design Unique?

The "Fire Swirl" name refers to the lively, spiraling patterns made by the colored glass rods. Unlike a simple colored piece, these swirls are added during the glassblowing process. This ensures that each ash catcher has its own one-of-a-kind pattern, giving it a custom, handcrafted feel.

Are The American Color Accents Durable?

Yes, they are. The color is from high-quality, American-made colored glass rods, not from paint or any kind of coating. Since the color is part of the glass itself, it will never chip, peel, or fade, even after plenty of use and cleaning. The vibrant look is permanent.

The built-in Fire Swirl pattern and lasting American color rods give this ash catcher a durable, high-end custom appearance.

  • The swirl pattern is a permanent part of the glass structure.
  • The color comes from American-made glass rods, not a surface-level paint.
  • The design is permanent and will not wash out or fade with cleaning.

How Does This Compare To Other Ash Catchers Under $50?

For its friendly price, the Hittn Fire Swirl provides a great mix of style and function. Here is a look at how it compares to other common types you might be considering.

Primary Benefit Cleanliness + Style Cleanliness Only Max Filtration + Splash Guard

The Hittn Fire Swirl stands out by delivering a unique, artistic design without giving up on core function or simple maintenance.

  • It successfully balances style and function when compared to purely functional models.
  • It is simpler to clean than more complex designs like recyclers.
  • It provides a major visual improvement over basic clear glass ash catchers.

How Do I Keep My Ash Catcher Clean?

Cleaning your Hittn Ash Catcher regularly is the best way to keep it working well and looking sharp. A clean piece ensures pure flavor and smooth airflow. Follow these simple steps to get it looking like new.

Cleaning Steps (ISO &Amp; Salt Method)

  1. Empty & Rinse: Carefully detach the ash catcher and pour out the used water. Rinse it with warm tap water to remove any loose ash or debris.
  2. Add Cleaning Solution: Pour in a mix of 91%+ isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt. Use enough alcohol to cover the dirty areas completely.
  3. Seal the Openings: Use your fingers, cotton balls, or special cleaning plugs to securely seal the joint and bowl openings.
  4. Shake Well: Shake the ash catcher firmly for 30-60 seconds. The salt will act like a scrubber to remove resin from the inside surfaces.
  5. Final Rinse: Pour out the dirty alcohol and salt, then rinse the piece thoroughly with warm water until all cleaning agents are gone.
  6. Let it Dry: Allow the ash catcher to air dry completely before you attach it back onto your water pipe.

Washing your ash catcher regularly with isopropyl alcohol and salt is the easiest and most effective way to maintain its look and performance.

  • A simple mix of isopropyl alcohol and salt is very effective at removing sticky resin.
  • Consistent cleaning prevents buildup and keeps your piece working optimally.
  • Always rinse your glass thoroughly to remove any leftover cleaning solution before you use it again.

FAQ

Will An Ash Catcher Fit My Specific Bong?

It will fit if your bong has a female joint that matches the size (14mm or 18mm) and angle (45° or 90°) you choose. You can use our size and angle guide above to confirm the fit. It may not fit some bongs that have guarded or deep-set joints unless you use an adapter.

Does This Ash Catcher Come With A Bowl?

This product is only the ash catcher unit itself. It is made to be used with the bowl piece that you already have. The top of this ash catcher has a female joint (in either 14mm or 18mm) where your male bowl will sit.

Can An Ash Catcher Help Reduce Splashback?

Yes. By adding more distance and a second water chamber, an ash catcher can greatly lower the chance of water splashing up from your bong. This model does a good job of containing splash within its own chamber.

Will Adding An Ash Catcher Affect The Airflow Or Draw?

Anytime you add a percolator, it will create a small amount of extra resistance, or drag, when you take a hit. Since this model uses a simple diffuser, the change in airflow is very small compared to more complex percolators.

Are Ash Catchers Really Worth The Investment?

For most regular users, the answer is yes. The main benefit is keeping your main piece clean for much longer, which saves you from deep cleaning your whole bong as often. Plus, the extra filtration usually makes for a smoother, more pleasant session.
