8" Color Accent Double Uptake Ball Drain Recycler
Free Quartz Banger Included

An 8-inch heady recycler with twin uptake arms feeding a ball-shaped drain chamber. Hand-pulled color accents at the joint and mouthpiece.
- Size: 8 inches
- Joint: 14mm female
- Material: Borosilicate glass
- What's included: One rig plus a FREE 14mm quartz banger
- Shipping: Ships fast from Oil Slick Pad with protective packaging
Double uptakes split the recycle path in half — instead of one channel returning water, two share the load. We've found that means a faster, more even cycle, especially on shorter pulls. The ball drain is the engineering counterpart: a spherical chamber that holds enough water to keep the cycle running but stays compact enough to fit on an 8" frame.
Includes a FREE quartz banger
Every dab rig at Oil Slick Pad ships with a free 14mm quartz banger so you can take your first dab the day it arrives. No add-to-cart needed.
Key Features
- Double uptake arms: Two return channels split the water return, balancing the cycle and shortening the rotation time.
- Ball drain chamber: Spherical drain volume holds the right amount of water for sustained cycling without overfilling.
- Hand-pulled color accents: Color worked into the glass at the joint and mouthpiece points. Fused, not coated.
- 8-inch profile: Smaller footprint than the typical 10-12" recycler. Easier to keep on a desk or shelf.
- 14mm female joint: Standard, matched to the included banger and any 14mm male accessory.
- Borosilicate build: Thick walls handle daily heat and ice without thermal stress.
- One off: Single hand-pulled piece. Color placement and depth are unique to this listing.
Who It's For
Dabbers who want a recycler without the full 10"+ height. Also good for travel-leaning setups since the smaller profile packs easier in a padded case.
Worth Noting: Shorter recyclers are sensitive to water volume — the cycle window is narrow. Start with less water than you think you need, take a test pull, and add a splash if cycling looks slow.

Care & Maintenance
Empty water after each use. For deeper cleaning, isopropyl alcohol with coarse salt, shake gently, then rinse with hot water. The double uptake arms can hide residue — give them an extra pass with the salt solution if cycling slows over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the advantage of double uptake?
Two return paths split the water flow, which keeps the cycle moving even on shorter inhales. Single-uptake recyclers can stall if you don't pull hard enough — doubles are more forgiving.
How is this different from a standard recycler?
Standard recyclers use a single uptake arm. The ball drain shape on this piece also differs from the more common tube drain — spherical drains hold a bit more water per square inch, which keeps the cycle going longer.
Does the color accent affect how it functions?
No. The color work is purely aesthetic. The glass thickness and joint geometry are identical to a clear version. The accent is fused into the glass during forming.
What size banger fits?
14mm male. The included quartz banger is already sized to match. Most aftermarket 14mm male bangers will also fit.
