Smoking Pipes - Dugout One Hitters & Sets | Grasscity

What is a Dugout Pipe?

A dugout is a pocket-size carrying container that is typically made from wood or metal and features a chamber “dugout” with a twist-top lid. The lid swivels open to reveal the spring-loaded metal one-hitter pipe and a stash compartment designed to accommodate your dry herbs.

This piece of kit is recommended for anyone looking for a bit of extra discretion, from concealing the smell to easily being able to carry it around in your pocket for a smoke on the go. Dugout boxes can come in a range of cool and interesting designs, as well as being available in different sizes.

What to look for when buying Dugout Pipes and boxes

As well as being very convenient, dugout pipes are also important from a design aspect, perfectly matching your personality.

The smoking pipe or metal bat itself is quite simple and resembles a chillum or one-hitter pipe. They consist of a straight hollow tube with a bowl at one end and a mouthpiece at the other. These pipes often have teeth on the bowl end that when pushed into the stash compartment attach a dry herb bud to the pipe, ready to smoke. They can also be decorated to resemble a standard-looking cigarette.

The Dugout System is the full kit including the dugout stash container. They are available in many shapes and styles and are designed to be slipped into a pocket or purse for safe and easy transport.

You can find a range of affordable and more high-quality dugout kits and new products including wood dugouts, and metal dugouts for the lowest prices. Even a cheap dugout kit from Grasscity is sure to leave you more than satisfied.

Dugout pipes fit inside a wooden box (the dugout) that has an array of different compartments to store everything you need for a smoking session. From your dry herb, lighter, cleaning equipment, and whatever else you need close to hand.

Dugouts are perfect for when you are traveling and want to discreetly keep all your smoking apparatus in one place so nothing gets lost. Most dugouts are airtight and keep any odors inside the box. They are also usually made from water-resistant materials to prevent damage to your herb or pipe.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why would you need a Dugout Pipe?

Dugout pipes are designed with complete discretion in mind. If you’re trying to take a few puffs on the down-low, dugout pipes are one of the simplest ways to get a few tokes in without drawing any attention to yourself.

Easy to load accommodates only small bowls, they are great for personal smoking. Once you’re done, you can slide your dugout pipe into the carrying container and go about your business as usual. Dugouts are obviously perfect for people who like to smoke out of the house.

How do I use a Dugout Pipe?

Dugout pipes are one of the simplest smoking devices available. Just load a small amount of your herb material into the bowl end, light it, and gently inhale. There’s no extra glassware, carb holes, or accessories you need to fiddle with.

Take care when inhaling from your smoking dugout pipe as it will have a relatively small chamber. The small chamber won't cool the smoke as effectively as a larger chamber, so we recommend going easy with the flame and only taking gentle puffs.

How to clean a Dugout Pipe?

Unlike complex and oddly shaped bongs or technical and fiddly vaporizers, standard one-hitter dugouts are quite easy to clean. This can be accomplished by routinely running a Q-Tip or pipe cleaner through the length of the pipe.

For example, if resin gets baked on the inside of the pipe and won’t come free, soak the dugout pipe in isopropyl rubbing alcohol for a few minutes and try again. This works especially well for metal dugout pipes but should be avoided when cleaning wooden dugouts.

Are Dugout Boxes smell-proof?

Some high-standard dugout boxes are 100% smell proof, whereas others although not completely smell proof, still do an amazing job at trapping odors within the box.
