The 12″ Monark Half Color Fume Dewar Zongcycler is a heady 12-inch (305mm) glass dab rig built for dabbers who want elite function and serious style in one piece. With its half-color fume work and Zong-shaped recycler body, it’s made for people who like long, smooth pulls and love watching their rig drain and churn. The 14mm 90° Dewar joint and included banger keep the setup simple but dialed-in for daily use.
Why You’ll Love It
- Ultra-smooth, cooled vapor — The Zongcycler recycler function keeps water moving, cycling your vapor for cooler, gentler hits on every pull.
- Heady showpiece for the table — The half-color fume design and Z-shaped neck give it that “what rig is that?” factor when friends come through.
- Stable, comfortable setup — 90° Dewar joint keeps the banger centered and balanced so you’re not fighting weird angles while you dab.
- Plug-and-play out of the box — Ships with a 14mm 90° banger already matched to the joint, so you’re ready to go without hunting for extra glass.
- Built to be a daily driver — Thick, high-quality glass is designed for regular seshes, not just sitting on a shelf.
- Cleaner flavor, less splash — Recycler design helps control water movement and reduce splashback, so you taste your concentrates, not bong water.
Best For
This Monark Zongcycler is made for dabbers who already know they like recyclers and want something with a little more personality than a plain straight tube. If you’re running multiple dabs in a row and care about smoother, cooler pulls, this checks that box easily. It also fits right into a more serious setup with proper staging on a solid dab mat so your table doesn’t get sticky.
How to Use It (The Basics)
Fill the rig so the bottom chamber has enough water to cover the perc openings, but not so much that it’s splashing into the neck when you pull. The recycler loop is designed to pull water up and cycle it back down, so a little movement is normal — that’s the whole point.
Drop the included 14mm 90° banger into the Dewar joint, load your concentrates, and let the recycler do the work while you pull. You’ll see the water climb and drain through the Zongcycler section, which helps cool the vapor while keeping the flavor crisp. If you like swapping between bangers and other styles, the 14mm joint plays nice with most standard dab tools and accessories you probably already own.
When you’re done, empty the water and let the rig fully cool before cleaning. Because of the recycler design, giving it a quick rinse after heavy seshes helps keep reclaim from building up in the recycling pathways.
Design & Function
The “Zongcycler” name is literal: it combines that classic Zong-style bent neck and body with recycler plumbing. The bends help add a bit of natural cooling and keep your face farther from the banger, while the recycler section keeps water circulating for smoother pulls.
The Dewar joint is reinforced, meaning the joint is welded to the body with extra glass instead of just hanging off the side. That’s clutch for a rig in this price range — it helps protect against accidental knocks when you’re moving it around or swapping out the 14mm banger.
The half-color fume work gives it a unique, almost shifting look depending on lighting and angle. It’s the kind of glass that looks different in the daylight vs. under LEDs, so it doesn’t get boring on the shelf. If you like to match your glass with storage or display, it pairs nicely with heavyweight glass concentrate jars that show off your extracts next to your rig.

Fit & Compatibility
The 14mm 90° Dewar joint is the standard setup for most modern dab rigs, so you can easily swap in other 14mm male bangers, terp slurpers, and similar nails if you already have a lineup. Just stick with 90° options so they hang correctly and don’t sit at an awkward angle.
Because it’s a recycler, it shines with concentrates over flower. If you’re building a full dab station around it, you can round things out with other smoke shop products like iso storage, q-tip holders, and stands to keep everything clean and organized.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Let the rig and banger fully cool before you do anything. Dump the old water, then rinse the rig with warm water to loosen up any light residue. For a deeper reset, soak the glass in isopropyl alcohol, rinse thoroughly with clean water, and let it dry completely before your next sesh.
If you’re reclaim-conscious, you can pour out rinse alcohol into a separate container and let it evaporate. For people who keep a whole rotation of pieces, it’s worth storing this Monark alongside your other rigs and pipes with some dedicated storage & packaging solutions to keep everything dust-free between uses.
FAQ
- Does the Monark Zongcycler come with a banger?
Yes. It includes a 14mm 90° banger that’s ready to drop into the Dewar joint right out of the box. You can upgrade to specialty bangers later if you want, but you don’t need to buy anything extra to start using it.
- Will this fit my other 14mm dab accessories?
As long as they’re 14mm and designed for a 90° rig, they should fit just fine. That includes most common quartz bangers, terp slurpers, and similar nails. If you’re already running other 14mm silicone bongs & rigs, you’ll be familiar with this joint style.
- Is it hard to clean since it’s a recycler?
It’s a little more involved than a straight tube, but not bad. A good soak in isopropyl alcohol and a warm rinse usually clears out the recycling pathways. If you clean it regularly instead of waiting until it’s fully gunked up, it stays much easier to maintain.
- Can I choose the exact color or fume pattern?
The rig comes in multiple half-color fume options, but the exact pattern and shade can vary because each one is worked by hand. Check the product photos and options on the page for what’s currently in stock; each one has its own personality.
- Is this better for big dabs or smaller flavorful hits?
It handles both well. The recycler action shines when you’re pushing a little more vapor and want extra cooling, but the smaller internal pathways still preserve flavor when you’re taking more conservative, terp-forward dabs. If you’re really chasing flavor, pairing it with clean quartz and fresh product from proper glass jars & extract packaging makes a big difference.
- Can I use this with flower instead of concentrates?
Technically, you could swap in a 14mm bowl, but this piece is designed as a dab rig. The recycler function, included banger, and overall size are tuned specifically for concentrates. If flower is your main thing, you might prefer a dedicated bong or a more straightforward tube-style piece.
- Is the glass thick enough to be a true daily driver?
Yes. It’s built from high-quality glass meant for regular use, not just occasional display. Of course, it’s still glass, so treat it with some respect — setting it down on a cushioned surface like a mat or even near your clearance accessories is a smart way to protect your investment.
If you like rigs that hit smooth, look wild, and hold up to daily rotation, the 12″ Monark Half Color Fume Dewar Zongcycler earns its spot on the shelf and in the sesh.
