Carb Caps

What is a Carb Cap?

A carb cap is an accessory that attaches to a dab rig to help to control airflow and deliver low-temperature dabs. Carb, refers to the word carburetor, regulating the air within the rig, just like a car engine. These caps can come in a wide range of designs, materials, and styles but they all serve the same purpose.

The cap is placed over the dab nail or banger so it is completely covered, trapping the heat that is generated when burning the THC concentrate. The trapped heat means the concentrate takes longer to cool and ensures that it is thoroughly burned.

They are made from the same materials as a dab nail or dab banger, commonly ceramic, titanium, and glass. Although higher-quality carb caps are made from Quartz. Silicone and metal caps are also available.

Carb caps can also be used in conjunction with a joint insert or adapter, add a banger to convert a regular bong, water pipe, or bubbler into a top-performing dab rig.

Why would you use a Carb Cap?

A carb cap gives you complete control of your dab hits, allowing you to vape at lower temperatures without any loss in quality or taste. By dabbing at a lower temperature, you can reduce the risk of burning any of your materials, giving your dab rig a longer lifespan.

If you dab without a carb cap, you will be constantly pulling cold air into the chamber of your nail. This cold air will cool down your heating element and materials before you are able to enjoy all of the full flavors your concentrates have to offer.

Most carb caps have a single hole that helps to create suction within the chamber, for a controlled and more enjoyable vaping experience.

A quality carb cap combined with a good dab rig and banger will help to maintain your optimal vaping temperature, reduce waste and give you full control of your dab rig. So, check out our wide selection of top-quality carb caps and get creative!

• Directional Airflow Carb capsA directional carb cap (also known as a spinner carb cap) works well with both angled and flat top bangers. They feature an angled tube in the middle of the cap that uses directional airflow for more effective vaporization.Directional carb caps can also be used in conjunction with terp pearls. The controlled airflow causes the terp pearls to spin in the banger and help with the vaporization process.
• Bubble CapThe bubble cap works best with a flat top banger. It has a bulbous body with a straw on the bottom and at the top that you can swirl around the banger to push the heated concentrate around with ease.
• Standard carb capsStandard carb caps work better with domeless nails and are often equipped with a dabber (dab tool) on top to place and divide the wax into the nail.
• Combination Carb CapsCombination Carb Caps are usually made from titanium and come pre-attached to the dab tool, allowing you to quickly cap the dome as soon as the concentrate has been added, ensuring only a minimal amount of vapor and heat is lost.
