COVE GLASS PURPLE HANDS RECYCLER SET

The Cove Glass Purple Hands Recycler Set is a high-end American-made dab rig setup built for serious concentrate heads who want gallery-level glass on the table and flawless function in every pull. Designed and hand-blown in the USA, this recycler focuses on smooth, cooled hits with zero splashback. If you’re the person who actually uses your art pieces, this 10 inch (254mm) rig is made to be a true daily driver that still looks like it belongs in a display case.

This isn’t a mass-produced import — it’s a handcrafted set where the sculpted “purple hands” and recycler loops work together to keep water moving, flavor tight, and your sesh looking clean. You’re paying for function and flex in one piece, not a shelf queen you’re scared to touch.

Why You’ll Love It

  • Showpiece-level art you’ll actually use — The sculpted purple hands and custom shaping make this rig stand out instantly, but it’s built to be hit, not just stared at.
  • Silky, cooled pulls every time — The recycler design keeps water circulating as you draw, so hits stay smooth instead of harsh.
  • No surprise splashback — The internal routing keeps water where it belongs, even when you’re tilting or passing it around mid-sesh.
  • Made in the USA quality — Hand-blown glass with tight seals and clean welds means you’re getting a piece built to last, not a throwaway.
  • Sturdy on the table — The stable base keeps it planted, so you’re not stressing every time someone sets it down a little too hard.
  • Complete set, ready to go — Comes with a matching banger, so you’re dialed in for concentrates straight out of the box.

Best For

The Cove Glass Purple Hands Recycler Set is made for dabbers who already have a basic rig and are ready to step into high-end glass without sacrificing function. If you’re the friend hosting seshes and like having a centerpiece on the coffee table, this is the flex piece that still rips like a workhorse. It also slots in perfectly alongside other premium pieces in your collection of smoke shop products when you want one rig that always gets a reaction.

How to Use It

Start by adding a bit of water to the main chamber and recycler section. You’re aiming for enough water to cover the perc while still leaving room for the recycler to cycle — you’ll see the water drain and return as you pull when it’s dialed right. Give it a couple of test pulls (no heat) to feel and hear the function.

Once the water level feels right, load your concentrates into the included banger and heat using your preferred torch technique. As you draw, the recycler pulls water up and then drops it back down, constantly refreshing the filtration so your hits stay smooth and flavorful. Setting the rig on a quality dab mat keeps your table safe from heat, drips, and accidental bumps when you’re a few dabs in.

Between hits, let the piece rest upright so all the water settles back into the base. That recycler loop is designed to work with a steady, comfortable draw — no need to over-pull. When you’re done, let the banger fully cool before cleaning or putting anything away, so you’re not shocking hot glass or leaving crusty buildup for “future you” to deal with.

Cleaning & Care

For quick maintenance, let everything cool after your sesh, drain the water, and rinse the rig with warm water to keep reclaim from building up in the recycler pathways. For a deeper clean, soak with isopropyl alcohol, then rinse thoroughly with warm water and let it dry before the next round. Keeping the banger clean with regular wipes means better flavor and less scrubbing later — especially if you’re working with terpy concentrates stored in proper concentrate jars.

The Basics: Recycler Function

Recycler rigs like this one are all about movement and cooling. As you pull, water is pulled up through the internal channels, filtered with your vapor, then “recycled” back into the base. That constant motion means your hit is passing through fresh water over and over instead of one quick bubble and done.

The result: less heat, smoother pulls, and more flavor from your concentrates. If you’re coming from a basic straight tube or small mini rig, you’ll feel the difference immediately — especially on back-to-back dabs when hot glass and stale water usually start to catch up with you.

This style of rig really shines for dabbers who like to take their time with a hit and appreciate watching the function. Think of it as performance art — you’re seeing exactly where your vapor is going and how the water is working for you.

If you like building full matching setups, this recycler looks right at home next to silicone backups from our silicone bongs & rigs collection — keep this as the crown jewel while your unbreakable pieces handle the more chaotic nights.

What’s Included

  • Cove Glass Purple Hands Recycler Rig (10 inches / 254mm)

FAQ

  • Does the set come with everything I need to dab?

    It comes with the recycler rig and a matching banger, so the glass side is fully covered. You’ll still want a torch, dab tool, and a clean workspace — a good accessories setup makes daily use way easier.
  • What size is the joint, and will my other bangers fit?

    The set is designed to work with common dab rig joint sizes, and many standard aftermarket bangers and nails will fit. If you’re swapping in one you already own, just double-check that the joint size and gender match what this rig uses before forcing anything in.
  • Is this rig too fancy to use as a daily driver?

    Not at all. It’s definitely a flex piece, but the recycler design and sturdy build make it totally fine for everyday seshes. If you want something more disposable for travel or risky situations, keep this one at home and grab a backup from our silicone pipes lineup.
  • How hard is it to clean a recycler like this?

    It’s pretty straightforward if you stay on top of it. Rinse after use, and hit it with isopropyl alcohol when it starts to look cloudy or you notice reclaim building up. Let it dry fully before the next use. The smoother the glass stays inside, the better the function and flavor.
  • Will the recycler splash if I pull hard?

    The internal design is built to keep water circulating without shooting up into your mouthpiece, even with a strong draw. If you’re somehow getting splashback, try lowering the water level a bit — recyclers work best with a balance of water and airflow rather than overfilling.
  • Is this piece worth it if I’m just getting into dabs?

    If you’re brand new, this is definitely a top-shelf starting point, but not a bad one if you know you’re all-in on concentrates. A recycler like this gives you smoother hits and nicer flavor right away, so you’re not “learning” on harsh glass that you’ll replace in a month. If you want to start simpler and work up, you can always begin with more basic gear and use this as your upgrade goal alongside proper storage & packaging for your concentrates.
  • Is it really made in the USA?

    Yes — this isn’t offshore production. The Cove Glass Purple Hands Recycler Set is made in the USA, which shows in the clean welds, thoughtful design, and the feel of the piece in hand. It’s for dabbers who care where their glass comes from and want something with craftsmanship behind the price tag.

If you’re ready to step up from “good enough” glass into something that actually feels special every time you pick it up, the Cove Glass Purple Hands Recycler Set delivers the perfect mix of art, function, and made-in-USA quality.
