Steamroller pipes are small glass tubes with a sizable bowl sitting atop the tube. Pack the bowl, light it up, and inhale from the mouthpiece. You’re in for a powerful hit.

The name “steamroller pipe” is taken from these smoking devices’ resemblance to the exhaust pipes on steamroller locomotives, which share the conical shape of a steamroller pipe bowl.

How To Use a Steamroller Pipe

Before you get to loading your steamroller pipe, it’s important to know that they can pack quite a punch. Since steamroller pipes are on the small size, their chambers don’t have a lot of space to cool the smoke.

But unlike a chillum or one hitter which features a small bowl, steamroller pipes have hefty bowls that any bong would envy. This combination of small chamber and big bowl can lead to some powerful -- even harsh -- hits. To use your steamroller, load up the bowl and cover the open end of the pipe with your finger. Light the bowl, inhale, and when finished you can remove your finger and inhale to clear the chamber of any remaining smoke.

Is a Steamroller Pipe Right for Me?

Because steamroller pipes can give powerful hits, they’re probably not the best smoking implements for novice smokers.

Steamroller pipes are ideal for anyone who has found themselves enamored with the portability and concealability of a chillum or one hitter but finds themselves unable to get a satisfying hit from these tiny bowls.

A steamroller pipe can maintain this exceptional portability and offers a bowl big enough to get a powerful and satisfying hit anywhere you find yourself.

Perfectly Portable Smoking

Your steamroller pipe can compete with a traditional spoon pipe in bowl size, but a spoon pipe can never hope to be as tiny and easy to handle as a steamroller.

The straight tube design of steamrollers makes them far easier to clean than the more complex shapes you find in spoon pipes. It also allows them to fit into much smaller spaces.

Not to mention the pricetag! Cheap steamroller pipes can be bought online for less than twenty bucks. Since they don’t use a lot of glass, these are an excellent option for the bargain hunting smoker.
