Stratus Vortex Carb Cap

Stratus Vortex Carb Cap — a directional airflow carb cap that spins your concentrates for even vaporization and maximum flavor.

  • Type: Directional vortex carb cap
  • Material: Borosilicate glass
  • Compatibility: Fits most flat-top quartz bangers
  • Brand: Stratus
  • Shipping: Ships free on orders over $25
  • Returns: 30-day return policy

A good carb cap is the difference between wasting concentrates and actually getting everything out of your dab. The Stratus Vortex creates a spinning airflow that moves your concentrates around the banger walls, so nothing sits in one spot and chars while the rest goes unvaporized.

We've tested a lot of carb caps, and the vortex-style ones consistently outperform flat caps and bubble caps on flat-top bangers. The spinning motion distributes heat more evenly, which means smoother hits and less residue left over.

Key Features

  • Vortex Airflow: Creates a spinning motion that pushes concentrates across the entire banger surface.
  • Universal Fit: Works with most standard flat-top quartz bangers. Check your banger's top diameter before ordering.
  • Borosilicate Glass: Heat-resistant glass that won't crack from proximity to a hot banger.
  • Easy to Handle: Ergonomic grip that doesn't get hot during use.

Who It's For

Low-Temp Dabbers: If you're taking dabs at 450-550F, a vortex cap is essential for getting full vaporization without cranking the heat.

Flavor Chasers: The even distribution means you taste the terpenes, not burnt residue.

Brand Stratus

The Stratus Vortex Carb Cap is made from borosilicate glass and creates a spinning vortex airflow pattern. It fits most standard flat-top quartz bangers and helps distribute concentrates evenly for smoother, more flavorful dabs.

Care & Maintenance

Wipe the bottom with an iso-soaked cotton swab after each session while it's still warm. For a deeper clean, soak in 91% isopropyl for 15 minutes and rinse. Don't let residue build up — a clean cap seals better.

Will this fit my banger?

It fits most standard flat-top quartz bangers. If your banger has a flat top edge (not angled or beveled), this cap should create a good seal. Measure your banger's outer diameter to be sure.

How is this different from a bubble cap?

A bubble cap directs airflow in one direction — you have to move it around manually. The vortex cap creates a spinning airflow automatically, so concentrates spread across the banger walls without you doing anything.

Does it work with terp pearls?

Yes, and that's where it really shines. The vortex airflow spins terp pearls around the banger, which adds even more surface area contact for your concentrates. Load a couple of 6mm pearls and you'll see the difference immediately.
