4″ ENCORE 14 M 90° LARGE HONEYCOMB ASH CATCHER

The 4″ ENCORE 14M 90° Large Honeycomb Ash Catcher is a glass add-on for people who love their bong but hate how fast it gets dirty. Built for 14mm female-jointed pieces with a 90° joint, it adds a full honeycomb perc and a big catch chamber, so ash and gunk land here instead of in your daily driver. You get smoother, cooler pulls and a cleaner main piece without changing the feel of your setup.

Why You’ll Actually Use This Every Day

• Way less scrubbing on your main piece — the oversized chamber traps ash and debris before it ever reaches your bong.
• Smoother, cooler hits — the large honeycomb perc breaks smoke into tons of tiny bubbles for better diffusion and cooling.
• Doesn’t ruin your pull — designed to keep airflow open, so you still get that satisfying, easy draw instead of feeling like you’re sucking a milkshake through a straw.
• Easy upgrade for most glass setups — 14mm male, 90° joint works with a ton of modern water pipes without needing adapters.
• Saves your nice piece from grime — let this catch the abuse so your favorite tube stays clearer, longer.
• Adds some personality — color accents and logo decal give you a little flair without going full novelty piece.

Best for

This ash catcher is made for people who use their bong as a true daily driver and are tired of deep-cleaning it every couple of days. If you’re running lots of flower bowls and want smoother function without swapping to a totally new piece, this is a smart add-on. It also pairs nicely with sturdy glass as part of a full setup alongside practical smoke shop accessories when you’re dialing in your sesh table.

How to use it

Slide the ENCORE’s 14mm male joint into the 14mm female joint on your water pipe, making sure the 90° angle keeps the body hanging straight and not tipping forward. Then add water until it just covers the honeycomb perc so it can stack bubbles properly without splashing up into your bowl or your piece.

From there, you use your setup like normal — your bowl or other attachment sits in the joint on the ash catcher instead of directly in the bong. The ash drops into this chamber first, and the honeycomb breaks up the smoke for smoother pulls. When you’re done, set it down on a stable dab mat or pad so you’re not dealing with wet rings on your table.

For cleaning, let it cool, dump the water, then rinse. When it starts to cloud up, soak it in isopropyl alcohol, rinse well with warm water, and let it dry fully before you clip it back on your piece.

Specifications

Because it uses a 14mm male joint at 90°, this ash catcher plays best with 14mm female-jointed water pipes designed for upright, vertical bowls. If your piece is 45° or a different joint size, you’ll need a different style or an adapter.

Fit & Compatibility

This piece is ideal for straight tubes, beakers, and modern water pipes that have a 14mm female joint at a true 90° angle. If your bong’s joint is angled down at 45°, this ash catcher will sit awkwardly and may spill. For people with multiple pieces and bowls, it can act as a shared “front end,” so you’re only really deep-cleaning one attachment instead of your entire collection, especially if you’re also rotating through different bowls or even simple glass accessories.

Why honeycomb?

Honeycomb percs are all about surface area and consistency. The flat disc is punched with lots of tiny holes, so when you pull, the smoke is spread out across tons of small bubbles instead of one big chug. That means more contact with the water, better cooling, and less harshness without feeling like the piece is over-percolated.

Compared to tree or showerhead-style percs, honeycombs are also relatively low-profile and easier to keep clear. In an ash catcher, that’s clutch, because it sees the dirtiest part of your sesh. When the honeycomb starts to stain up, a quick soak brings it back way easier than trying to scrub awkward internals inside your main piece.

FAQ

1. Will this fit my bong?
   
   If your water pipe has a 14mm female joint at a 90° angle, you’re good. If it’s 45° or a different joint size, this specific ash catcher won’t sit or seal correctly without an adapter. When in doubt, compare your piece to other 14mm setups in the silicone bongs and rigs section to get a feel for joint style and angle.
2. Can I use this with a bowl and a banger?
   
   Yes, as long as your bowl or banger has the correct joint size for the top fitting on the ash catcher. Most people run it with a flower bowl to keep their bong clean, but you can technically drop a compatible banger on it if the angles line up with your rig.
3. How much water should I put in it?
   
   Fill it just high enough to cover the honeycomb perc. Too little and it won’t bubble properly, too much and you risk splashback into your bowl or piece. It’s quick to dial in — add a little, test the pull, and adjust.
4. How do I clean it without making a mess?
   
   Let it cool, dump out the dirty water, then rinse with warm water. For heavier buildup, soak it in isopropyl alcohol, rinse thoroughly, and let it dry. You can set it on a nonstick work surface like the ones used for parchment and processing so you’re not dripping on your counters.
5. Will this make my hits too draggy?
   
   Honeycomb percs are designed to keep airflow fairly open, and this one is sized to match typical 14mm pieces. You’ll feel a little more draw resistance than with no ash catcher at all, but it shouldn’t feel like a chore to clear — just smoother and more controlled.
6. Is it worth it if I already clean my bong a lot?
   
   Yes, because instead of doing full deep cleans on your bong constantly, most of the grime ends up in the ash catcher. You can quick-rinse this daily and save the full scrubdown for your main piece for every so often, same way you might rotate and store prepped flower in proper storage and packaging instead of keeping it in the grinder 24/7.
7. Can I travel with it attached to my piece?
   
   It’s better to detach it. Glass-on-glass joints can wiggle and stress if they’re bouncing around together in a bag or case. Pack your bong and ash catcher separately, ideally wrapped or padded, like you would with other glass or concentrate jars, then reassemble when you’re ready to sesh.

The 4″ ENCORE 14M 90° Large Honeycomb Ash Catcher is one of those quiet upgrades that changes how you treat your glass: cleaner, smoother, and less annoying to maintain. If you love your current piece but wish it stayed clear longer and hit a little softer, this is an easy yes.
