1″ QUARTZ CONTROL TOWER SOLID INSERT

The 1" Quartz Control Tower Solid Insert is a heavy little quartz insert built for dabbers running control tower and slurper-style bangers who want smoother, more controlled hits. It adds mass and thermal stability inside your banger, helping keep temps steadier across your dab. At 1 inch (25.4mm) long, it’s sized to work with most control tower/slurper designs while still leaving room for proper airflow and motion.

Why it works

• Smoother, more even vapor — The solid quartz body helps spread heat more evenly inside your banger so you’re not dealing with random hot and cold spots.
• Longer flavor window — Extra thermal mass means your banger doesn’t crash in temp as fast, giving you more time to enjoy terps instead of rushing every dab.
• Better use of your material — As it moves with airflow, the insert keeps oil in motion over more hot surface area, helping you pull more out of every drop.
• Built to take the heat — Solid quartz construction is made for repeated heating and cooling, so it’s ready to be a true daily driver insert.
• Easy maintenance — Non-porous quartz cleans back up quickly, so you’re not stuck scrubbing between every sesh.
• Cleans up the look of your setup — The polished pattern design adds a subtle visual upgrade inside your tower or slurper without being over-the-top.

Best for

This insert is made for dabbers who already love their control tower or slurper-style banger but want more consistency and control from it. If you’re the type who tweaks timing, airflow, and cap technique to chase perfect flavor, this little chunk of quartz will fit right into your ritual. It’s also a solid upgrade if you’re dialing in a new rig and want a reliable insert to pair with your favorite dab mat and tools.

How to use it

Drop the insert into your compatible control tower or slurper-style banger before you start your heat cycle so the quartz can warm up along with the rest of the piece. Once it’s up to temp, load your material into the banger as usual and let airflow and your carb cap do the work of moving the insert and oil around. You’ll notice the hit feels more controlled and the heat curve is easier to predict, especially when you’re three dabs deep and just want things to behave the same way every time.

Between pulls, give the insert a quick visual check so it’s not overrun with residue; keeping it reasonably clean helps it move and function properly. When you’re done for the day, let everything cool, then pop the insert out for a simple wipe-down so it’s ready to go next time you crack open your favorite concentrates from one of your go-to concentrate jars.

Quick cleaning guide

Always let the insert cool fully before you touch or clean it. For light cleanup, a quick wipe with a cotton swab or cloth while there’s still a little warmth (but not hot) can keep buildup under control. For deeper cleans, soak the quartz insert in isopropyl alcohol, rinse with clean water, and let it dry completely before putting it back in your banger.

Specifications

Fit & compatibility notes

This insert is designed specifically for control tower and slurper-style quartz bangers. Because every brand’s dimensions are a little different, you’ll want to make sure your banger has enough internal height and diameter for a 1 inch (25.4mm) solid insert to move freely without getting jammed. If you’re piecing together a full setup from scratch, this pairs nicely with sturdy glass or unbreakable silicone bongs and rigs that can keep up with heavy dab use.

FAQ

• Will this insert fit my current banger?
  It’s made for control tower and slurper-style quartz bangers, but exact fit depends on your brand’s internal dimensions. As long as your banger is tall enough and wide enough for a 1 inch (25.4mm) solid insert to sit and move without binding, you’ll be good. If your tower is especially narrow or shallow, double-check measurements before you grab one.
• Can I use this with a regular flat-bottom banger?
  This insert is really tuned for control tower and slurper-style designs where airflow moves the insert and oil together. It may physically fit some other bangers, but you won’t get the same function it’s designed for. If you’re experimenting with different setups, start with the right style of banger and build your kit out from there with the right dab tools and caps.
• Do I heat the insert separately?
  Most people just keep the insert in the banger during the heat cycle so everything comes up to temp together. That way, the solid quartz mass helps stabilize the heat curve. Just avoid handling or moving the insert while it’s hot so you don’t crack it or burn yourself.
• How durable is the quartz?
  Quartz is built for repeated heating and cooling, which is why it’s the go-to for quality dab gear. That said, like any quartz accessory, it can still crack if it’s dropped on a hard surface or hit with extreme temp shock. Let it cool naturally and don’t move it straight from very hot to cold water or alcohol.
• What’s the best way to keep it from getting gunked up?
  Staying on top of light cleaning goes a long way. After your sesh, once the insert has cooled down a bit, wipe away visible residue so it doesn’t bake into a thick layer. If it does get crusty, a soak in isopropyl alcohol and a quick rinse will bring it back. Keeping your workspace tidy with a reliable dab accessory setup also helps you stay on top of maintenance.
• Is this better than a hollow or pill-style insert?
  It’s just different. A solid control tower insert focuses on thermal mass and consistent heat, which a lot of flavor chasers and low-temp fans prefer. Hollow, pill, or marble-style inserts may spin or move differently and change how your oil travels. If you’re dialing in your perfect setup, this solid insert is a great baseline to compare other insert styles against, especially if you’re already picky about your parchment and handling workflow from our parchment papers or similar products.
• Can I use this with terp pearls or other inserts at the same time?
  In most control tower and slurper setups, this insert is meant to be the main moving mass, so stacking lots of extra pearls or marbles can crowd the space and hurt airflow. If you experiment with combos, make sure everything can still move freely and you’re not blocking intake slits or channels in your tower. Less is usually more with this type of insert.
