HITTN STEMLESS 8-ARM TREE PERC STRAIGHT TUBE BONG

Understanding the specs helps you see how each part contributes to a better session. The combination of percolator, height, and joint size makes this a versatile and effective piece.

The bong's key specs—like its 8-arm perc and 12.5" height—are engineered for smooth, cool, and flavorful hits.

• The 12.5-inch height offers a good balance of cooling and handling.
• A 14mm female joint ensures broad accessory compatibility.
• The stemless design enhances durability and simplifies the overall profile.

1. Inspect Glass: Before first use, check for any damage that may have happened during shipping.
2. Rinse Clean: Give the bong a quick rinse with warm water to remove any dust from manufacturing.
3. Add Water: Pour water through the mouthpiece. Add enough to cover all the slits on the tree perc arms by about half an inch.
4. Test Draw: Without a bowl, take a gentle pull to check the water level. You should hear smooth bubbling without any splashback.
5. Add Ice: If you like, drop a few ice cubes into the neck to rest on the ice pinch.
6. Attach Bowl: Securely place the included 14mm male herb bowl into the female joint.

Proper setup involves setting the right water level and testing the draw before use for the best performance.

• Always inspect new glassware when it arrives.
• Set the water level to just cover the percolator's slits.
• An ice catcher allows for an extra stage of cooling.

This isn't just another straight tube. The Hittn bong is defined by features working together to filter and cool your smoke for the best possible experience.

What Does The 8-Arm Tree Percolator Do?

The 8-arm tree percolator is the engine of this piece. As smoke enters the chamber, it is forced through eight arms, each with small slits. This action diffuses the smoke into many tiny bubbles, which increases its surface area. The result is rapid cooling and filtering, which removes harshness before the smoke reaches you.

Why Choose A Stemless Straight Tube Design?

A stemless design means the joint is fused directly to the bong's body. This removes the need for a separate, fragile downstem, making the piece sturdier and easier to handle. The straight tube shape adds to this with fast, direct airflow. With less air to clear than a beaker, you get a quick, snappy hit.

How Does The Ice Catcher Improve The Experience?

The three-pronged ice pinch in the neck lets you stack ice cubes in the smoke path. After being filtered by the percolator, the smoke passes over the ice for a final cooling stage. This creates a very refreshing and smooth pull, perfect for those who prefer cooler hits.

This bong's filtration system relies on its tree perc for diffusion and an ice catcher for ultimate cooling.

• Tree percolators work by diffusing smoke through many small slits.
• Stemless bongs are typically more durable than those with removable downstems.
• The straight tube form factor provides a direct and rapid hit.
• An ice pinch allows smoke to be cooled a second time before you inhale.

1. Fill with Water: Pour cool, fresh water through the mouthpiece until the tree perc slits are submerged about a half-inch.
2. Add Ice (Optional): Gently drop ice cubes down the neck to rest on the ice pinch.
3. Pack the Bowl: Grind your dry herb and pack it loosely into the 14mm male bowl.
4. Position and Light: Place your mouth on the mouthpiece, light the corner of the bowl, and begin to draw slowly.
5. Inhale and Clear: As the chamber fills, pull the bowl from the joint and inhale the rest of the smoke from the tube.
6. Rinse and Repeat: For the best flavor, change the water daily and rinse after your session.

Using this bong is a simple six-step process. The right water level and a steady draw are key to success.

• A slow, steady draw pulls smoke through the percolator effectively.
• Removing the bowl from the joint acts as the carb to clear the chamber.

While the Hittn 8-Arm is a filtration powerhouse, here’s how it compares to other popular bong styles you might find in a similar price range.

The Hittn bong excels in filtration, while alternatives like beakers offer stability or basic straight tubes offer speed.

• Tree percs provide high filtration but can be harder to clean.
• Beaker bongs are known for their great stability due to a wide base.
• Honeycomb discs offer strong diffusion with very little drag.

Proper cleaning is essential for keeping your 8-arm tree perc running smoothly and tasting fresh. Regular maintenance prevents clogs and keeps the glass clear.

Are Tree Perc Bongs Hard To Clean?

Tree percs can be more challenging to clean than a simple bong, but it is manageable with the right method. The small arms can trap resin, so frequent rinsing is important. For a deep clean, use a solution of isopropyl alcohol (91%+) and coarse salt. Plug the openings, shake well, and then rinse thoroughly with hot water. For tough spots, a flexible pipe cleaner can help.

While tree percs require more attention than basic bongs, routine cleaning with ISO and salt keeps them working perfectly.

• Frequent rinsing with hot water helps reduce resin buildup.
• Isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt are effective for deep cleaning glass.
• Clogged arms can often be cleared with a flexible pipe cleaner.
