The 5.5 inch Silicone Character Water Pipe is a pocket-sized piece built for smokers who want something fun, durable, and easy to toss in a bag. At 5.5 inches, it's small enough to stash anywhere but still hits like a proper water pipe thanks to the included 14mm glass bowl. The silicone body means you can drop it, knock it over, or pack it for a trip without worrying about shattered glass.
Key Benefits
- Shatterproof silicone body — drop it, toss it in a backpack, or knock it off the table without breaking anything
- Compact 5.5 inch size — small enough to travel with but still functional for daily sessions
- Includes 14mm glass bowl — proper glass-on-glass fit for smooth hits and easy replacement if needed
- Water filtration in a portable format — get cooler, smoother hits compared to a dry hand pipe
- Easy to clean — silicone rinses clean, and the glass bowl pops out for quick maintenance
- Multiple colors available — choose the one that fits your vibe (availability varies)
Best For
This piece is made for smokers who prioritize portability and durability over size. Great for camping trips, backyard sessions, or anyone who's tired of replacing broken glass. If you're looking for a full-size bong experience, check out larger silicone rigs instead.
How It Works
Fill the base with enough water to cover the downstem (usually about an inch). Pack the 14mm glass bowl with flower, light it, and pull through the mouthpiece. The water cools and filters the smoke before it hits your lungs, giving you a smoother experience than a dry pipe.
The silicone body flexes instead of shattering, so you can squeeze it to clear stale smoke or just toss it in a bag when you're done. The glass bowl comes out for cleaning—soak it in isopropyl alcohol while you rinse the silicone under warm water. No special tools needed.
Because it's only 5.5 inches tall, this isn't a heavy hitter for marathon sessions. Think of it as a travel-friendly backup or a low-key piece for quick use. If you want something with more percolation or a bigger chamber, look at full-size silicone bongs or bubblers with more filtration stages.

Care & Cleaning
Let the piece cool if you've been using it. Remove the glass bowl and soak it in isopropyl alcohol to dissolve resin. Rinse the silicone body with warm water and mild soap, or run it through the dishwasher if you're feeling lazy. Dry everything before reassembling.
Limitations
The 5.5 inch height limits water capacity and chamber size, so hits aren't as smooth or cool as a full-size bong. This is a portable piece first, performance piece second. The glass bowl is replaceable, but make sure you grab a 14mm male bowl if you need a spare. Colors are subject to availability—contact the shop to see what's in stock before ordering.
FAQ
Will this break if I drop it?
The silicone body won't shatter, but the glass bowl can break if it hits a hard surface at the wrong angle. Keep the bowl in place during transport or remove it and wrap it separately.
How much water should I use?
Fill just enough to cover the downstem—usually about an inch of water. Overfilling makes it harder to pull and can cause water to splash up into the mouthpiece.
Can I replace the bowl with a different size?
The joint is 14mm female, so any 14mm male bowl will fit. You can swap in a deeper bowl, a colored one, or even a quartz banger if you want to dab with it (though the small size isn't ideal for concentrate use).
Does silicone affect the taste?
Food-grade silicone is taste-neutral when clean. If you notice any funky flavor, it's usually resin buildup—give the piece a thorough rinse and make sure the bowl is clean.
Is this dishwasher safe?
The silicone body can go in the dishwasher (top rack). Remove the glass bowl first—hand wash it separately to avoid breaking it or damaging other dishes.
Can I travel with this on a plane?
If it's clean and resin-free, silicone pipes are legal to transport in checked baggage in most places. Check local laws and TSA guidelines before packing. Don't try to bring it through security if there's any residue.
What colors are available?
Multiple colors are offered, but availability changes. Contact the shop directly to confirm what's in stock before ordering if you have a specific color preference.
