This is our Original Sidecar Quartz Banger, designed to protect your rig from heat while delivering pure flavor. Its unique side-mounted bucket and 90° angle work with most standard rigs. For the most common fit, we recommend the 14mm size.
Crafted from 100% pure quartz, this banger is built for great taste and function. The side-mounted bucket offers real benefits for heat control and easy use. It’s made to handle high temperatures and deliver a clean, untainted flavor with every session.
The 90° neck angle creates a perfect, flush fit on dab rigs that have a vertical joint. This clean and simple setup is key to the banger's excellent performance.
A 90-degree sidecar quartz banger is a dab nail where the bucket sits off to the side, connected by a small tube. The "90-degree" neck connects vertically with your rig's joint. This design keeps intense heat away from your valuable glass and makes cleaning much simpler than with standard bangers.
The Original Sidecar Banger is a functional upgrade for anyone seeking better heat control and easier maintenance.
Every detail of this banger is chosen for a reason, from its material to the joint finish. These features work together to give you a reliable and high-quality dabbing session. Understanding how each spec helps you shows why this design is so popular.
| Specification | Value (What It Does) | Benefit (Why It Helps You) |
|---|---|---|
| Sidecar Bucket Design | Offsets the hot bucket away from the rig joint. | Protects your glass from heat stress and prevents accidental burns. |
| 100% Quartz Material | Offers excellent thermal resistance and a non-porous surface. | Provides incredible flavor purity and prevents leftover tastes. |
| Extra Thick Base | Absorbs and holds heat for an extended period. | Allows for longer, more consistent low-temp dabs without reheating. |
| Frosted Joint | Creates a more secure, textured connection point. | Ensures an airtight seal, preventing air leaks and joint lock-up. |
Combining a thick base with a frosted joint and sidecar design makes for a stable, efficient, and flavorful experience.
Choosing the right size is essential for a perfect fit. This banger is available in the three most common joint sizes: 10mm, 14mm, and 18mm. Each size also comes in either a "Male" or "Female" gender. To find your fit, check your dab rig: if it has a female joint, you need a male banger, and vice-versa.
Measure your rig's joint or check its product details to select the correct 10mm, 14mm, or 18mm size.
Beyond the basics, the sidecar's design actively improves your dabbing session. The beveled edge ensures your carb cap sits perfectly, while the overall structure helps it perform better than standard bangers.
Compared to a regular banger, the sidecar design offers two main advantages. First, it isolates heat, protecting your rig's joint from thermal stress that can cause cracking over time. Second, it gives you a clear view and easy access for cleaning with a cotton swab, which helps prevent residue buildup.
The beveled, or slanted, rim on top of the banger helps your carb cap form a secure seal. This is great for spinning bubble or directional caps for better vapor production. The extra-thick quartz base acts like a heat battery, absorbing energy and releasing it slowly. This retention is key for enjoying flavorful low-temp dabs without rushing.
The combination of a sidecar build, beveled edge, and thick quartz offers better performance than basic banger designs.
Getting the temperature right is important. While exact times vary based on your torch, a good starting point is a 30-40 second heat-up, followed by a 50-60 second cooldown. This schedule is ideal for achieving flavorful low-temp dabs.
Follow a simple heat-and-cool process to get the best flavor and preserve the life of your quartz banger.

Proper care is the most important factor in making your quartz banger last. The best method is to clean it after every use while it's still warm. Use a cotton swab to mop up any remaining residue. For deeper cleans, a soak in isopropyl alcohol can dissolve stubborn buildup without damaging the quartz.
Clean your banger with a cotton swab after each use to maintain its clarity and prevent permanent staining.
