12″ BLACK SHEEP COLOR ACCENT INLINE TO RATCHET BONG

The 12" Black Sheep Color Accent Inline to Ratchet Bong is a premium glass water pipe built for flower heads who want smooth, cooled hits without babying their piece. With a stacked inline to ratchet perc combo and a 14mm female joint, it’s made for people who care about function as much as color work.

At 12 inches (304mm) tall, it’s big enough to stack milky pulls but compact enough to live on the coffee table as your daily driver, not just a display piece.

Why You’ll Love It

• Super smooth pulls — Inline perc starts the diffusion and the ratchet perc finishes the job, so your smoke takes a long, bubbly path before it hits your lungs.
• Flavor that actually shows up — The stacked percs cool and filter without turning your bowl into harsh, stale-tasting smoke too fast.
• Color accents that pop — Matched color on the base, mouthpiece, and bowl gives the piece a custom, heady look right out of the box.
• Comfortable in the hand — The 12" height hits a nice middle ground: tall enough for function, short enough to pass around the circle without feeling clumsy.
• Ready-to-rip setup — Comes with a matching 14mm flower bowl, so you’re not digging through a drawer for something that fits.
• Easy upgrade path — Standard 14mm female joint plays nice with a ton of other pieces and accessories if you want to swap bowls or add an ash catcher later.

Best For

This bong is made for flower lovers who want legit diffusion without going full science-project. If you’re the person who actually notices the difference between a single downstem and a multi-perc piece, this will feel like an upgrade. It’s also a great pick if you already have smaller daily drivers or basic smoke shop pieces and you’re finally ready to step into “nice glass” territory.

How to Use It

Start by adding water to the base so the inline perc is fully covered; you want it bubbling along its whole length when you pull. Then make sure there’s just enough water above the ratchet perc to fire all the slits without sending splash up the neck.

Load your 14mm flower bowl with your favorite herb, set the piece down on a solid surface (a non-slip dab mat works great here), and take a slow pull so both percs can do their thing. You’ll feel the inline start the diffusion and the ratchet kick in higher up, stacking dense, cooled smoke in the tube.

After your sesh, let the piece cool. For quick upkeep, rinse with warm water and a little isopropyl when needed; for deeper cleans, soak in iso, rinse thoroughly, and dry before your next use.

The Basics of the Inline to Ratchet Setup

Think of the inline perc as your first filter: it stretches horizontally across the base, with multiple slits that break your pull into tons of small bubbles instead of big, chunky ones. More bubbles means more surface area, which means better cooling and filtration.

From there, the smoke rises into the ratchet perc. That’s the second stage — a circular ring of slits higher in the chamber that further chops and cools the smoke. It’s like running your hit through two filters in one pull, without adding a ton of drag when the water level is dialed in.

This combo is especially nice if you’re coming from a simple beaker or straight tube and want something that feels smoother but still rips. If you’re already deep into diffusion land with recyclers or percy-style rigs, this offers a familiar, powerful hit with more classic bong vibes.

Specifications

For cleaning, always let the glass cool down first. For routine maintenance, rinse with warm water; for a deeper reset, soak with isopropyl alcohol, rinse thoroughly with clean water, and let it dry fully before using again.

Fit & Compatibility

The 14mm female joint means it plays nicely with most standard 14mm bowls, ash catchers, and dropdowns. That makes it easy to swap in a favorite slide, or to add an extra layer of filtration without having to buy all-new gear. If you’re already running storage for your flower in proper glass jars and packaging, this bong is a natural step up for the rest of your setup.

The tube has enough room in the neck to toss in a few ice cubes if you like your hits extra cold. Just don’t overfill the water or you’ll send splash into that ice and up toward the mouthpiece.

FAQ

• Will this bong fit other 14mm bowls I already own?
  Yes. Any standard 14mm male flower bowl will fit the 14mm female joint on this bong. The included matching bowl just keeps the look cohesive, but you can absolutely rotate in your favorite slide or even a 14mm dry herb accessory setup if you’ve got one.
• Can I use this for concentrates too?
  Technically yes — if you swap the bowl for a 14mm male banger, it’ll function as a dab rig. Just keep in mind it’s sized and designed as a flower bong, so the volume and diffusion are more in line with big rips than tiny terp sips. Dedicated nectar collectors or smaller rigs are usually better if you’re mostly dabbing.
• How much water should I use?
  Enough to fully cover the inline perc and lightly cover the ratchet perc slits. If you’re getting water in your mouth or heavy splashback, you’ve gone too high; if only part of the perc is firing, add a little more. Tiny adjustments matter a lot with multi-perc pieces.
• Is this hard to clean with the extra perc?
  It’s a bit more involved than a plain beaker, but not bad. A soak in isopropyl alcohol plus a warm water rinse usually clears both the inline and ratchet sections. If you like to keep your glass spotless, pairing it with proper storage and packaging for your flower helps cut down on ash and reclaim buildup.
• Does it tip over easily?
  The 12" height and weighted base make it stable for normal table use. As always with glass, don’t park it on the edge of a cluttered desk or somewhere it can get bumped — especially when people are passing it around during a long sesh.
• Will the airflow feel restricted with two percs?
  When you’ve got the water levels right, the pull feels surprisingly open. The inline perc spreads your hit out, and the ratchet adds more diffusion without turning it into a workout. If it feels like too much drag, try lowering the water just a bit.
• What’s the best way to keep the color accents looking fresh?
  Rinse regularly so resin doesn’t stain, avoid abrasive scrubbers, and let it dry fully between deep cleans. Keeping your flower in clean, sealed glass containers also helps your piece stay cleaner longer by cutting down on dusty, dry herb that burns messy.
