9.5″ MONARK BIG TUBE DOUBLE UPTAKE RECYCLER

The 9.5″ Monark Big Tube Double Uptake Recycler is a heavy-duty glass dab rig built for dabbers who care about function as much as looks. If you’re into longer seshes, flavor, and smooth pulls, this recycler’s double uptake and up-fire perc combo is made to keep hits cool and controlled. At 9.5 inches (241mm) tall with a 14mm 90° joint, it’s that sweet spot between compact and “wow, that rips.”

Why It Hits Different

  • Smoother, cooler pulls — Double uptake recycler design keeps water and vapor moving so the hit has more time to cool before it reaches you.
  • Cleaner flavor from your concentrates — The up-fire perc breaks the vapor into fine bubbles, giving you better diffusion without totally scrubbing the terps.
  • Built like a tank — Thick glass and a beefy tube profile give it a solid, stable feel on the table and in your hand.
  • Balanced 90° joint — The 14mm 90° joint keeps your banger sitting level, so you’re not fighting awkward angles during your sesh.
  • Less splash, more function — Recycler design helps keep water in the rig where it belongs, not in your mouth.
  • Looks as good as it rips — Monark’s bold tubing and accent colors make this rig a legit centerpiece, not just another clear tube.

Best For

This rig is made for dabbers who are past the starter-kit stage and want something with real function and presence. If you’re running several dabs a day and like to post up at a clean station on a dedicated dab mat, this piece fits right in as a daily driver or showpiece.

It’s also a great pick if you like recyclers but don’t want a tiny, finicky rig — the 9.5″ height gives you room for good function and water volume without feeling oversized.

How to Use It

Fill the rig so the up-fire perc is just covered with water; too much and you’ll flood the recycler, too little and you’ll lose that smooth chug. When you pull, vapor is drawn through the perc, up the main chamber, and then cycled through the dual uptakes back down into the lower chamber.

That continuous loop is what gives recyclers their signature feel: the water and vapor are constantly moving, getting re-filtered and cooled before they ever hit your lips. Pair it with a solid banger and a good carb cap from our carb caps collection and you’ll really feel what this thing can do.

After your sesh, let everything cool off before handling. Then you can dump the water, give it a quick rinse, and you’re ready for your next round. If you like to keep your glass spotless, a dedicated tool from our dab tools lineup makes scraping and loading way less messy.

What’s Included

  • 9.5″ Monark Big Tube Double Uptake Recycler (glass rig)
  • 14mm 90° banger (ready to use out of the box)

All you need to add is your concentrate, a torch, and a safe place to set everything down — a nonstick pad or tray from our broader smoke shop products lineup keeps your station dialed.

Fit & Compatibility

The rig comes with a standard 14mm male, 90° joint. That means it plays nicely with most common 14mm 90° quartz bangers, terp slurpers, and similar nails. If you’re already running other 14mm glass, chances are you can swap accessories between them with no issue.

The footprint and thick tubing give it a solid base, so it’s less likely to tip compared to skinny, top-heavy rigs — clutch when you’ve got tools, jars, and a torch all living on the same table. For people who like to swap between different flavors, having a few extra clean bangers stored in your storage & packaging setup makes rotating way easier.

Care & Cleaning

Let the rig and banger fully cool before cleaning. For the glass body, a soak in isopropyl alcohol followed by a good rinse with warm water and complete dry time will keep the recycler pathways clear. The banger can be wiped or soaked the same way to remove stubborn residue.

If you’re someone who likes spotless glass all the time, changing the water regularly and giving it quick rinses will keep buildup from forming in the uptakes and perc, so you don’t have to do deep cleans as often.

FAQs

  • Does this rig come with a banger?
    Yes. The 9.5″ Monark Big Tube Double Uptake Recycler includes a 14mm 90° banger so you can use it right away. You can always upgrade to a different style of 14mm 90° quartz if you have a favorite.
  • Will this fit my existing accessories?
    If your current gear uses a 14mm, 90° setup, you’re in good shape. Just make sure any banger or nail you swap in is also 14mm and designed for a 90° joint so it sits level and heats evenly.
  • How much water should I put in the recycler?
    You only need enough to cover the up-fire perc and allow the recycler function to engage. If you notice water splashing up into the neck, you’ve probably overfilled it — pour a little out and test again.
  • Is this a good rig for larger dabs?
    Yes, the thicker tubing, recycler function, and 9.5″ height handle denser hits well, as long as your banger is sized right. For heavy hitters who go back-to-back with bigger dabs, pairing this with a quality quartz banger and storing your concentrates in proper concentrate jars will help keep flavor on point.
  • What’s the advantage of a double uptake recycler vs a regular rig?
    Double uptakes help move water and vapor more efficiently, which can lead to smoother, cooler hits and less choppy function. Instead of vapor going straight from perc to mouthpiece, it’s being re-routed and mixed with water as it cycles.
  • Is it hard to clean a recycler like this?
    Not really, as long as you stay on top of it. Rinsing regularly and doing occasional iso soaks will keep the uptakes and chambers from getting clogged. If you’re pressing your own material, using clean parchment or liners from our parchment papers section helps cut down on impurities that gunk up glass.
  • Is this a good choice as my first “nice” rig?
    If you’ve used simpler rigs or small recyclers and want to step up into something with more function and presence, this is a solid pick. It’s not overly complicated, but the double uptake and up-fire perc give you that upgraded experience that makes a difference when you’re a few dabs deep and just want your setup to work flawlessly.
