Find Your Perfect Rig Here: Types of Dab Rigs Under $20
Now for the fun part. You’ll be amazed at the variety and functionality you can find in this price range. Each style below offers a unique experience.
Mini Dab Rigs
Don't let the size fool you. A mini dab rig is a small powerhouse, perfect for those who value discretion and flavor. Their compact size means the vapor has less distance to travel, resulting in an incredibly potent and flavorful hit. They're also ideal for portability and easy storage.
Silicone Dab Rigs
For the adventurous or accident-prone, a silicone dab rig is the ultimate worry-free solution. Made from food-grade, heat-resistant silicone, these rigs are virtually unbreakable. They are the perfect travel companions, easy to clean, and offer incredible durability for a very low price.
Showerhead Percolator Dab Rigs
If you want the smoothest possible hit, a rig with a percolator is a must. The showerhead percolator is a classic design that features slits or holes at the bottom, forcing the vapor through the water and diffusing it into thousands of tiny bubbles. This provides excellent cooling and filtration for a gentle, cough-free experience.
Honeycomb Percolator Dab Rigs
Another popular option, the honeycomb percolator, is a disc filled with dozens of small holes. It offers incredible diffusion with very little drag, meaning you can pull a massive, smooth hit with minimal effort. It's a high-performance feature you can find even in our most affordable rigs.
Oil Rigs Under $15
For those on the absolute tightest budget, we've curated a selection of highly functional oil rigs under $15. These pieces prove that you don't even need $20 to get started. While they may have simpler designs, they are built from quality glass and provide a fantastic entry point into the world of dabbing.
Cool, Aesthetic, and Cute Dab Rigs
Your rig should be a reflection of your personality. We stock a huge variety of cool and cute dab rigs with unique artistic designs. From whimsical shapes and vibrant colors to sleek and aesthetic pieces, you can find a rig that performs great and looks amazing.
Essential Dabbing Accessories You Will Need
It's also important to understand the tools that make a complete dabbing setup. A great rig is just one piece of the puzzle.
Quartz Bangers & Dab Nails
Every dab rig needs a dab nail—this is the general term for the part of the rig that you heat with your torch. Dab nails come in various materials, including durable titanium and ceramic. However, the most popular and highly recommended type today is the quartz banger. A "banger" refers to the specific bucket-like shape of the nail, and quartz is the premium material of choice. We prioritize the quartz banger in our collections because it offers the cleanest, purest flavor, allowing you to taste the true terpene profile of your concentrates. Its excellent heat retention and durability make it the top choice for any serious dabber.
The Dab Torch
You cannot use a regular lighter for dabbing. A powerful and reliable butane torch is a non-negotiable tool. It provides the intense, consistent heat needed to bring your quartz banger to the perfect temperature quickly and efficiently, ensuring your concentrates vaporize cleanly instead of burning.
The Carb Cap
The carb cap is a small but essential accessory that dramatically improves your experience. After applying your concentrate to the hot banger, you place the carb cap on top. This traps the heat, lowering the air pressure inside and allowing your concentrates to vaporize at a much lower temperature. The result is a smoother, more flavorful, and more efficient hit.
Dab Tools
You may also need a dab tool, sometimes called a dabber or wand. This is a small, pointed tool (usually made of glass, titanium, or quartz) used to safely and cleanly handle sticky concentrates and apply them to your hot banger.
A Rig for Every User
Whether you're a beginner seeking a simple and effective starter rig, a traveler needing an unbreakable silicone piece for your adventures, or a seasoned pro looking to try a unique recycler without a big investment, our collection has the perfect match. We've curated this selection to ensure every type of user can find the right tool for their specific needs.
