Description
Matrix Perc Ash Catcher, a premium glass attachment designed to significantly improve the filtration and cleanliness of a water pipe.
Product Overview
An ash catcher is an external chamber that sits between the bowl and the main water pipe. This model features a matrix percolator, which is widely considered one of the most effective designs for diffusing smoke due to its intricate grid of tiny slits.
Key Features
- Matrix Percolator: The cylindrical "matrix" at the base contains dozens of precision-cut holes. When you inhale, these holes break the smoke into a massive amount of tiny bubbles, providing maximum cooling and filtration.
- 90° Joint Angle: This upright design is best suited for water pipes with a vertical joint (like many straight tubes and stemless designs).
- Material: Crafted from high-quality, heat-resistant borosilicate glass.
- Dual Function:
- Filtration: Provides an extra stage of water cooling for a much smoother hit.
- Protection: Acts as a primary "trap" for ash and resin, keeping your main water pipe much cleaner for longer periods.
Specifications
- Joint Type: Ground glass (frosted) for an airtight "glass-on-glass" connection.
- Compatibility: Typically available in 14mm or 18mm sizes (the top is a female joint for the bowl, and the side is a male joint for the pipe).
- Cleaning: Because of the intricate matrix slits, it is recommended to clean this piece regularly with an alcohol-based solution to prevent resin buildup.
