6MM STONE TERP PILL

The 6mm Stone Terp Pill is a small quartz insert designed to improve heat retention and vapor production in your banger. Sized at 6mm diameter, it fits most standard flat-top and bucket-style quartz nails, giving dabbers a simple way to get more out of each hit without upgrading their entire setup.

Why add a terp pill to your setup

  • Better heat distribution — the quartz mass holds temperature longer, so you're not racing against cool-down
  • Improved vaporization — concentrates spread across the moving pill instead of pooling in one spot
  • Spins with airflow — pair it with a directional carb cap and watch it work the oil around the banger
  • Low-temp friendly — helps maintain the sweet spot for flavor-forward dabs
  • Compact 6mm size — small enough to move freely without blocking airflow or getting stuck

How terp pills work

Drop the pill into your heated banger before or after adding your concentrate. Once you cap it with a directional or spinner cap, the airflow pushes the pill around the bottom of the banger. As it moves, it spreads your oil across the hot surface, vaporizing more material more evenly than a static puddle would.

The quartz material absorbs and holds heat, which means your banger stays at working temperature a bit longer. For low-temp dabbers chasing terpene-rich hits, that extra few seconds makes a real difference. You get fuller clouds without cranking the torch harder.

These work best with flat-bottom bangers. Angled or round-bottom nails can still benefit, but the pill won't spin as smoothly. If you're running a standard bucket-style quartz banger, you're good to go.

Best for

Dabbers who want better vapor production without buying new glass. If you've got a decent banger and a spinner cap but feel like you're leaving oil behind, a terp pill is the cheapest upgrade that actually works. Also solid for anyone doing low-temp dabs who wants to extend that sweet spot before the nail cools too fast.

Care and cleaning

After each session, let the pill cool in the banger, then drop it into isopropyl alcohol to soak. A quick swish removes most residue. For stubborn buildup, let it sit longer or hit it with a cotton swab. Rinse, dry, and it's ready for the next round. Quartz handles heat cycling well, but avoid thermal shock by not dropping a red-hot pill into cold liquid.

Frequently asked questions

Will this fit my banger?

At 6mm, it fits most standard flat-top and bucket bangers. If your banger has a narrow opening or an insert cup, measure first. The pill needs room to spin freely.

Do I need a special carb cap?

It works best with directional or spinner caps that create angled airflow. Bubble caps work too. A flat cap without directional slots won't spin the pill as effectively, but it'll still help with heat retention.

How many pills should I use?

One is standard for most bangers. Some people run two or three in larger nails for more movement, but start with one and see how it performs in your setup.

Does it make a difference for cold-start dabs?

Yes. The extra quartz mass helps the banger reach and hold temperature more evenly during a cold start. You'll notice more consistent vaporization as the nail heats up.

Why quartz instead of glass or ruby?

Quartz handles repeated heat cycling without cracking and doesn't affect flavor. Ruby and sapphire pills hold heat even longer but cost more. For most dabbers, quartz hits the sweet spot between performance and price.

How do I keep it from flying out of the banger?

Use a carb cap that seals well. If the pill keeps popping out, you're either pulling too hard or the cap isn't creating proper restriction. A good seal keeps everything contained.

Can I use this with a nectar collector?

No. Terp pills are designed for bangers where they can sit and spin. Nectar collectors work differently—you're dipping the tip directly into concentrate, so there's no place for a pill to do its job.
