4.5″ Silicone Elephant Pipe w/ Glass Flower Bowl – $5.00

The 4.5″ Silicone Elephant Pipe is a compact hand pipe built for smokers who want something that won't shatter when life happens. The sculpted elephant design sits comfortably in your hand, and the removable glass flower bowl means you get clean hits without the full fragility of an all-glass piece. At this size, it's pocket-friendly enough to toss in a bag without worrying about it cracking on your keys.

Key Benefits

  • Drop it, don't sweat it — Food-grade silicone body bounces back from falls that would kill a glass pipe
  • Easy cleaning when things get sticky — Pop out the glass bowl, rinse the body, toss it in the dishwasher if you're feeling lazy
  • Fits in your pocket without paranoia — 4.5 inches means it's actually portable, not just theoretically so
  • Glass bowl delivers the flavor — Removable borosilicate glass bowl keeps the taste clean without silicone interference
  • Colors that don't look like every other pipe — Multiple color options available so you're not stuck with the same design as everyone else at the sesh

Best For

This pipe works for smokers who are tired of replacing broken glass pieces. It's solid for people with small hands or anyone who wants something that fits in a jacket pocket without announcing itself. If you're camping, hiking, or just clumsy, the silicone build means you're not babysitting your pipe all night. Also good for anyone who wants a conversation piece that doesn't cost more than lunch.

How It Works

Pack the glass bowl with ground flower — a grinder helps keep the airflow steady. The elephant's trunk curves naturally toward your mouth, and the carb sits where your thumb lands without thinking about it. Light, cover the carb, pull until you see smoke fill the chamber, then release and clear it.

The silicone body stays cool to the touch even after a few bowls, so you're not juggling a hot pipe between hits. When it's time to clean, pull the glass bowl out and rinse both pieces. The silicone can handle isopropyl alcohol if resin builds up, but honestly, most gunk wipes off with warm water and a paper towel. Let it air dry before reassembling.

Pro tip: Don't torch the bowl directly for long periods. The glass can handle heat, but the silicone rim around it doesn't need to be tested. A quick flame gets the job done without pushing the material limits.

Fit & Compatibility

The glass bowl is a standard size that fits snugly into the silicone body. If you lose or break the bowl, most headshop replacement bowls will work as long as they're the right diameter. The pipe itself is designed for flower only — don't try to rig it for concentrates or you'll just make a mess.

This isn't a heavy-hitter for marathon smoking sessions. If you're running back-to-back bowls for hours, grab something with more airflow. For casual use or solo sessions, it does the job without fuss.

FAQ

Can I put this in the dishwasher?

The silicone body can technically go in the dishwasher, but pull the glass bowl out first. The heat won't hurt the silicone, but you don't want resin clogging up your dishwasher filter. Hand-washing is faster anyway.

Does the silicone taste affect the smoke?

The glass bowl is where the flower sits, so the silicone doesn't touch the heat source directly. Most people don't notice any taste difference. If you do, let the pipe air out for a day after unboxing — new silicone sometimes has a manufacturing smell that fades.

How durable is the glass bowl?

The bowl is borosilicate glass, which handles heat better than regular glass, but it's still glass. Drop it on concrete and it'll break. The upside is that replacement bowls are cheap and easy to find at most smoke shops or online.

Will this fit in a standard cupholder?

At 4.5 inches, it fits in most cupholders, jacket pockets, and small bags. The elephant design adds a little bulk, but it's not bulky enough to be annoying.

Can I use this for concentrates?

Not recommended. The glass bowl is designed for flower, and trying to heat concentrates in it will just gunk up the bowl and waste your product. Stick to a nectar collector or dab rig for concentrates.

How do I clean resin buildup in the silicone?

Soak the body in isopropyl alcohol for 20-30 minutes, then rinse with warm water. For stubborn spots, use a pipe cleaner or cotton swab. The silicone won't absorb the alcohol, so it dries clean. For more on keeping your gear in shape, check Leafly's guide to pipe cleaning.
