5.5″ Stainless Steel & Resin Dab Tool – Style B

The 5.5″ Stainless Steel & Resin Dab Tool (Style B) is a compact dabber built for people who actually care where every bit of concentrate ends up. At 5.5 inches (139.7mm), it hits the sweet spot between pocket-friendly and functional — long enough to keep your fingers clear of the heat, short enough to handle easily when you're a few dabs into the evening. The flat stainless tip handles scooping and spreading without drama, while the chunky resin handle stays cool and gives you something solid to grip.

Key benefits

• Clean, controlled scoops — The flat stainless tip works like a tiny spatula, letting you slice under concentrates and place them exactly where they need to go.
• Heat stays where it belongs — Resin handle keeps your fingers comfortable while the stainless tip does the hot work.
• Built to survive daily use — Stainless steel shrugs off repeated heat cycles and the constant pull-and-scrape routine that wears out cheaper tools.
• Easy to spot mid-sesh — Bold resin colors stand out on cluttered trays so you're not hunting for your dabber while your banger cools.
• Solid grip without slip — The ergonomic resin handle feels substantial in hand, not like a fragile glass wand you're afraid to squeeze.
• Travel-ready size — Fits in cases and kits without awkward angles or poking through bag liners.

Best for

This tool suits dabbers running a small to mid-size rig as their daily driver. If you want one dabber that lives next to your dab mat and just works every single time without fuss, this is that tool. It's also a solid pick if you're rough on gear — the stainless and resin construction handles drops and knocks that would chip glass or ceramic alternatives.

People who share their setup will appreciate the length keeping everyone's fingers safe, and the distinctive handle colors make it easy to tell whose tool is whose when you've got a few people rotating through.

How to use it

The flat tip is your precision instrument for anything sticky. Glide it under your concentrate, slice off what you need, and place it directly on your banger, nail, or dish. The flat profile works especially well for spreading dabs across a larger surface area when you want even vaporization.

At 5.5 inches, you've got room to work without your hand hovering over the hot zone. This matters more than you'd think when you're doing back-to-back dabs or passing around a table where timing gets casual. Between loads, set the tool on a heat-safe accessory tray rather than directly on surfaces — residue transfers are real, and nobody wants to explain sticky spots to their roommate.

The stainless tip handles brief contact with hot surfaces during loading, but don't leave it sitting on a heated banger. The resin handle is designed to stay cool during normal use, though direct flame or prolonged contact with extreme heat should obviously be avoided.

Specifications

Fit and compatibility

This tool works with pretty much any standard dab setup. Bangers, nails, e-nails, and even nectar collector dishes if you like staging your hits ahead of time — the flat tip handles them all.

The flat profile excels with stable concentrates, pull-and-snap, crumble, and thicker oils where you want to scoop or spread rather than just poke. For very runny material, you might pair it with a chilled dish or work from a lined container to keep things manageable.

Care and cleaning

Let the stainless tip cool after each use, then wipe off residue before it hardens. For deeper cleans after heavy use, soak the metal end in isopropyl alcohol, rinse with warm water, and dry completely before storing with your other dab tools. Go easy on the resin handle — harsh scrubbing or solvents can dull the finish over time.

FAQ

• Is 5.5 inches actually long enough to keep my fingers safe?

  Yes. You get enough reach that your hand isn't hovering directly over the banger during loading. It's the balance point between compact portability and practical safety — not so short you're getting toasted, not so long it feels like you're wielding a chopstick.

• Will the resin handle get soft or warped from heat?

  Under normal dabbing conditions, no. The stainless tip absorbs the heat during loading, and the resin handle stays comfortable in your grip. Just don't leave the tool resting directly on a hot surface or expose it to open flame — that's not what it's designed for.

• What types of concentrates work best with this tool?

  The flat tip handles stable slabs, pull-and-snap, crumble, badder, and most waxes without issue. Very runny or sauce-like concentrates are trickier to manage with any tool — consider working from a chilled dish or using non-stick paper or PTFE to make handling easier.

• How do I prevent residue buildup?

  Quick wipes after each dab keep things manageable. When the tip starts looking cloudy or gunked up, isopropyl alcohol cuts through buildup fast. Storing your concentrates in clean, wide-mouth concentrate jars also reduces the cross-contamination that makes tools sticky faster.

• Why stainless steel instead of glass or titanium?

  Stainless offers a middle ground. It's tougher than glass (no chipping from drops), more affordable than titanium, and handles heat cycles without the brittleness of ceramic. For daily use where the tool gets tossed in bags and passed around, stainless steel durability makes sense.

• Can I take this through airport security or in checked luggage?

  The tool itself is just metal and resin — not prohibited. The issue is always residue. Clean it thoroughly before traveling, and check current regulations for your specific route. Keep it with your other silicone rig or bong in your travel kit for organization.

• Does the handle color affect anything besides looks?

  Purely aesthetic. Pick whatever color you'll recognize at a glance when your tray has multiple tools scattered across it. Some people match their setup, others grab the brightest option so they never lose track of their dabber.
