Kerby Black Bot Head

The Kerby Black Bot Head is a handcrafted American dab rig for collectors and daily dabbers who want functional art that actually performs. Built from thick borosilicate glass by a respected US glassblower, this heady piece features a distinctive robot head design that turns your dab station into a conversation starter. The sculpted character gives it personality while the internal pathways deliver smooth, controlled hits worthy of the craftsmanship.

Why this rig stands out

• Real American glass art — Handblown by a skilled artist, not pumped out of a factory. You're buying a piece with a name behind it.
• That bot head character — The sculpted robot face gives this rig its own vibe. People will ask about it. Every time.
• Thick walls you can feel — Hefty borosilicate that inspires confidence when you're passing it around or setting it down after a heavy session.
• Built for actual use — The shaping and vapor path are dialed for smooth pulls, not just looks. This thing rips.
• Standard joint compatibility — Runs whatever banger or nail you already own and trust.
• Years of service ahead — Quality US glass meant to be your main rig for the long haul, not something you replace in six months.

Made for

Dabbers who see their glass as an extension of their style. You've probably got a few production rigs already, maybe some mid-range American pieces too, and now you want that anchor piece—the one that makes people stop and stare when they walk into your spot. The Kerby Black Bot Head is for the friend everyone hits up when they want a proper dab experience. It's collector glass that earns its shelf space by getting used, not just displayed.

How to use it

Set up like any dedicated rig: attach your preferred banger or nail (match the joint size and angle), fill with water to your usual level, and you're ready. The compact sculpted form keeps the vapor path tight, delivering dense and flavorful hits without requiring a massive lung capacity to clear.

The bot head design doesn't complicate function—it enhances it. The artist built this to be used hard, not babied. That said, heady glass deserves a proper home between sessions. A quality dab mat protects the base and keeps your tools and caps from migrating across the table.

Pair it with a flat-top quartz banger and a directional carb cap for the full experience. The sculpted character really pops when you've got matching accessories that complement the heady aesthetic. Keep your concentrates fresh in proper storage jars so every dab does this piece justice.

Specifications

Compatibility

Standard glass dab rig joint style accepts most quartz bangers and titanium nails. Check your banger's joint size and angle before purchase to ensure a proper seal. If you're running a full dab setup with quality tools and your favorite quartz, this drops right into your rotation.

Keeping it clean

Let everything cool completely before handling. Empty water after each session—standing water gets funky fast and can leave marks on nice glass. For daily maintenance, a quick rinse and wipe keeps things fresh.

Deeper cleans: soak in isopropyl alcohol (room temp, not hot), let it work for 30 minutes to an hour, rinse thoroughly with warm water, and dry completely before your next session. Avoid sudden temperature changes—don't run cold iso through a warm rig or blast hot water on cold glass. Heady pieces deserve patience.

FAQ

• Does it come with a banger?
  No. Rigs at this level ship without nails or bangers so you can choose exactly what you want to run. Match your preferred quartz to the joint size and you're set.
• Daily driver or shelf queen?
  Both. The thick walls and stable base handle regular use without issue. But the sculpted bot head and American craftsmanship put it firmly in functional art territory. Most owners use it as their main piece and still treat it like the investment it is.
• How fragile are the sculpted details?
  The bot head features are part of the same solid borosilicate body—they're not thin or delicate. Still glass though. Support the base when moving it, don't grab it by tiny accents, and keep it away from tile floors.
• What accessories work best?
  A quality quartz banger matched to the joint, a good carb cap (bubble or directional depending on your style), and reliable dab tools. Browse our accessories collection for pieces that complement heady glass.
• Harder to clean than a simple rig?
  Not really. The main chamber cleans like any other rig. The sculpted exterior just needs a gentle wipe. Don't overthink it—regular light maintenance prevents the heavy scrubbing sessions.
• Can I travel with it?
  You can if you've got a proper padded case and you're careful. Most people keep pieces at this level safe at home and grab something more rugged for road trips. A silicone rig handles travel abuse without the anxiety.
• Good first dab rig?
  Depends on your commitment level. If you're testing the waters with dabbing, start cheaper and figure out what function style you prefer. But if you already know this is your thing and want to skip the upgrade cycle entirely, this is end-game glass. You won't outgrow it.
