Every detail of the Disc-O Inferno is engineered for better performance and durability. See how its specifications translate directly into a better session.

Choosing the right ash catcher is all about compatibility. Here’s what you need to know to ensure the Disc-O Inferno is the right choice for your setup.

Will This Fit My Rig’s 14Mm Joint?

Yes. This ash catcher is equipped with a 14mm male joint, designed to slide perfectly into a 14mm female joint on your water pipe. It's a very common size, so if you have a standard rig, chances are it's a match. Always measure your joint if you're unsure—it should be about 14.5mm at its widest point.

Why Choose A 45-Degree Angle?

The 45-degree angle is designed to work with rigs where the joint is also angled, which is common on beaker bongs. This ensures the ash catcher sits upright and stable, preventing awkward weight distribution that could tip your piece or stress the glass. If your rig's joint comes straight up (at 90 degrees), you would need a 90-degree ash catcher instead.

What Does A Disc Percolator Do?

A disc percolator, or "disc perc," is a powerhouse of filtration. When smoke is pulled through, it's forced through dozens of tiny slits in the disc. This action breaks the smoke into a stack of small bubbles, dramatically increasing its surface area for cooler, cleaner, and smoother smoke.

Understanding these features ensures you get the maximum benefit from your new accessory.

• Match the 14mm joint size to your water pipe.
• Match the 45-degree angle to your rig's joint angle.
• Enjoy superior filtration from the disc percolator.

An ash catcher is a valuable addition for almost any daily user. Its primary purpose is to keep your expensive or hard-to-clean water pipe free of ash and resin. By trapping debris in this smaller attachment, you extend the time between deep cleanings of your main piece. It also adds extra water filtration, which can help cool the smoke and improve flavor.

Use an ash catcher to save cleaning time and enhance your sessions, especially with frequent use.

• Ideal for daily users who want to reduce maintenance.
• Perfect for preserving the flavor and cleanliness of a new rig.
• A great way to add extra filtration to a simple setup.

Not all ash catchers are the same. The Ruckus Disc-O Inferno offers a great balance of filtration and ease of use without excessive drag. Here's a look at how it stacks up against other options you might find.

The Disc-O Inferno provides top-tier filtration that rivals more complex designs, making it a standout choice for its value.

Keeping your Disc-O Inferno ash catcher clean is simple and ensures it functions perfectly. Since it traps all the gunk, it will get dirty faster than your bong. We recommend cleaning it every few days, depending on use. It's much easier than cleaning your entire rig!

1. Rinse: Empty the old water and rinse the ash catcher with hot water to remove any loose debris.
2. Soak: Fill it with a solution of 91%+ isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt. Plug the openings with your fingers or cleaning caps.
3. Shake: Shake gently for 30-60 seconds, letting the salt scrub the interior walls.
4. Rinse Again: Pour out the solution and rinse thoroughly with hot water until all alcohol and salt are gone.
5. Dry: Let it air dry completely before reattaching.

A regular cleaning schedule keeps your hits tasting fresh and your setup looking great.

• Frequent rinsing prevents stubborn resin buildup.
• An alcohol and salt solution is highly effective for glass.
• Cleaning this small piece is much easier than cleaning a large bong.

Proper setup and care will prevent common issues like splashback and ensure you get the best performance every time.

Pre-Session Checklist

• Check the Fit: Ensure the 14mm joint is seated securely in your rig.
• Add Water: Fill with just enough cold water to cover the slits of the disc percolator. Overfilling can cause splashback.
• Test the Draw: Take a gentle pull without a bowl to check for airflow and ensure no water splashes into your mouth or the rig's joint.

Post-Session Steps

• Empty Water: Discard the dirty water immediately to prevent staining and odors.
• Quick Rinse: Give it a quick rinse with hot water. This 15-second step makes deep cleaning much easier later.

Correct water levels are key to preventing splashback and ensuring smooth diffusion.

• Fill water just above the perc slits, not to the top.
• A quick rinse after use is the best maintenance habit.
• Test your draw before adding herbs to check for splashback.
