The 3.5″ Color Reclaim Nectar Straw is a super-compact glass dab straw built for people who like simple, no-fuss hits with minimal waste. At just 3.5 inches (89mm), it’s small enough to pocket but still has a real quartz tip for clean flavor and a built-in reclaim section to catch leftovers. If you’re the type who likes quick dabs without hauling a full rig, this is the kind of piece that actually gets used every day.
Why You’ll Reach For It
- Save your leftovers — Internal reclaim chamber catches extra oil so it doesn’t run all over your table or get wasted.
- Flavor that isn’t cooked — Solid quartz tip keeps the taste clean and neutral instead of adding that hot-metal funk.
- Tiny but tough — Thick, full-color glass body is compact enough for a travel kit but built to handle real-world use.
- No surprise disconnects — Included clip locks the quartz tip to the body so it doesn’t wiggle loose mid-sesh.
- Built-in staging spot — Silicone puck gives you a nonstick place to park your concentrates between pulls.
- Pocket-friendly — 3.5 inches (89mm) means it fits in small cases, smell-proof pouches, or even that random hoodie pocket.
Best For
This little reclaim straw is made for dabbers who want the feel of a direct hit without committing to a whole rig and banger every time. It’s a great backup to keep next to your main silicone bongs and rigs, or as a dedicated on-the-go piece when you don’t want to risk traveling with your expensive glass.
How to Use It
The 3.5″ Color Reclaim Nectar Straw works like any classic dab straw, just with a reclaim section and a quartz tip upgrade. Attach the quartz tip to the body, secure it with the clip, and you’re ready to heat and go once everything is seated firmly.
Set your piece down on a nonstick surface like a dab mat so your tip and reclaim chamber aren’t picking up dirt or ash from the table. Load your concentrate into the included silicone puck (or your favorite dish), warm the quartz tip with your torch, let it cool briefly, then tap into your concentrate while pulling from the mouthpiece. The reclaim area will catch any extra oil that runs back instead of letting it drip out the front or back into your dish.
When you’re done, let the tip fully cool before handling or packing it away. The reclaim chamber will slowly build up with use, which you can clean out when it gets gunked up, or save depending on how you like to run your setup.

Fit, Flow & Real-World Use
Because it’s short and stiff, this straw is easy to control over your dish without feeling like you’re waving a wand around. The quartz tip gives you a tighter, more focused contact point, which is great when you’re working with smaller amounts and want to be precise.
It also plays nice with most standard dab tool setups, so you can use the silicone puck alongside your favorite dab tools and dabbers instead of digging straight out of jars. The reclaim function makes it especially solid as a daily driver for people who hate seeing oil go to waste on the table or in random cotton swabs.
Care & Cleaning
Keep it simple: let the straw and tip cool all the way down, then wipe off any visible residue from the quartz tip and mouthpiece. For a deeper reset, disassemble the tip from the body, soak the glass and quartz parts in isopropyl alcohol, rinse with clean water, and allow everything to dry fully before putting it back together.
If you’re saving reclaim, you can carefully warm the body just enough to loosen it and collect it with a tool, then store it in one of your preferred concentrate jars for later.

FAQ
How big is this compared to a normal nectar collector?
At 3.5 inches (89mm), this straw is shorter than most full-sized nectar collectors, which usually run closer to a small rig in length. It’s more of a pocket piece than a tabletop setup, but still has a full reclaim section and quartz tip, so you’re not sacrificing function — just saving space in your kit.
Can I use this with the same concentrates I’d put in a rig?
Yes. Anything you’d normally dab out of a banger will work with this straw — just stage it in the silicone puck or a small dish, then tap the heated quartz tip to the concentrate. If you’re handling stickier or more delicate textures, consider pairing it with proper parchment paper or liners to keep your surfaces clean and your product easy to scoop.
Does the reclaim chamber really make a difference?
It does. Without a reclaim area, anything that runs back from the hot tip either winds up in your mouthpiece or all over your table. Here, the extra oil settles in the chamber instead. You can clean it out regularly for a fresh feel, or carefully collect reclaim if that’s part of your routine.
How should I store this when I’m not using it?
Let the piece cool down completely, wipe it off, and keep it in a padded case, pouch, or drawer where it won’t get knocked around. Many people store it with their other storage and packaging gear so all their concentrate tools live in one place instead of getting lost.
What torch works with this straw?
Any standard dab torch or refillable butane torch that you’re comfortable with will work to heat the quartz tip. Just make sure you’re heating evenly and allowing it to cool slightly before touching concentrate so you’re not burning product or shocking the glass.
How often do I need to clean it?
It depends how hard you run it. If you’re dabbing all day, you’ll probably want to give the tip and mouthpiece a quick wipe every day or two, and do a full soak clean when the reclaim chamber starts looking cloudy or sticky. Light dabbers can stretch that out longer, but regular cleaning keeps the airflow smooth and the flavor fresh.
Is this better than a full nectar collector kit with a water chamber?
They’re just different tools. A full water-filtered nectar collector can offer cooler, smoother hits, but it’s bulkier and has more parts to clean and pack. This 3.5″ Color Reclaim Nectar Straw is all about quick, compact function with less to carry and fewer pieces to knock over, which makes it ideal as a travel piece or backup alongside your bigger rigs and other smoke shop essentials.
