Best 10mm Bangers & Dab Rig | American Quartz Banger

Best 10mm Bangers & Dab Rig | American Quartz Banger

Unless you’ve been under a rock for the past decade, you’ve certainly heard of the latest craze in marijuana consumption: concentrates. Call it what you will - dabs, shatter, wax - these 10mm dab rig concentrates are absolutely everywhere, and with good reason! They’re extremely strong, fun to smoke, and usually a better bargain than a raw plant. 

Of course, as with all new innovations in the smoking world, these concentrates come with a world of new tools and terminology. First, we’ll cover everything you need to know to get you rolling with your first dab. After this short guide, even the most veteran joint smokers will be ready to try concentrates.

What do I need to take a dab?

First off, you’ll need your concentrate. These come in various forms, from soft, crumbly wax to sticky, gooey shatter. With that out of the way, you’ll need either a nail or a banger, a dabbing tool, and a basic torch to heat up your banger. If you’re wondering “Which dab nail is best?” try looking here. For now, we’re going to chat about quartz bangers.

What size banger do I need?

You’ll need to know whether your bubbler, bong, or banger hanger has a 10mm dab rig or 14mm joint, and you’ll need to make sure you get the appropriate gender of a banger to pair with your piece. A female joint on your piece would need a male banger and vice versa. In this guide, we’ll cover some of the quartz bangers on the market. 

What is the best dab banger?

Although we’ll get into our exact choices soon, the best dab banger is simply this: a banger made of quality quartz that fits your dab rig correctly. Each 10mm dab rig quartz banger will offer different ups and downs, so the best quartz banger is subjective to your preferences. Heat retention, carb cap, American quartz, best price - whatever factors matter to you most.

This one was way too cool to leave off our list.
