2.5″ 18MM U&M FUME FLOWER BOWL W/ HANDLE – MADE IN USA

The 2.5″ 18MM U&M Fume Flower Bowl w/ Handle is a handcrafted glass bowl made in the USA for flower smokers who want something simple, clean, and reliable. Built around an 18mm male joint, it’s perfect for anyone running bigger water pipes that need a sturdy replacement or upgrade bowl. The fumed glass finish and clear peg handle add just enough style and function without turning your daily driver into a diva.

Why it works

  • Comfortable pulls — 2.5 inches (64mm) of length gives you a solid grip area and keeps fingers back from the heat.
  • Easy, no-slip handling — The clear peg handle lets you lift the bowl cleanly, even when you’re mid-sesh and a little distracted.
  • Dialed for 18mm setups — Built for 18mm joints, so it drops right into most full-size bongs and rigs without adapters.
  • Unique fume look — Fumed glass means every piece develops its own character over time as it colors in with use.
  • Made in the USA — Handcrafted glass with tight tolerances, so it feels solid and seats properly in your joint.
  • Clean, simple design — No weird shapes or gimmicks, just a straightforward flower bowl that does its job every time.

Best for

This bowl is made for flower smokers running 18mm bongs or rigs who want a reliable, easy-to-handle slide with a bit of personality. It’s a great pick if you’ve broken the stock bowl on your favorite piece, want a dedicated flower slide for a silicone bong or rig, or just prefer simple American-made glass over generic imports.

How to use it

Pop the 18mm joint into your water pipe’s female joint and you’re good to go — the bowl is designed to seat securely without wobble on standard 18mm glass. The handle makes it easy to pull straight out without twisting or grabbing hot glass.

When you’re loading up, hold the bowl by the body or the clear peg handle so you’re not putting stress on the joint while you pack. Setting your piece on a sturdy dab mat or pad keeps ash and stray herb off your table and gives you a soft landing zone if you set the bowl down between hits.

Over time, the fumed glass will slowly change color and deepen as resin builds behind it, which is part of the charm. If you like watching that transformation, just do light wipe-downs; if you want it looking closer to new, give it a proper soak every so often.

Fit & compatibility

This bowl is designed for any water pipe or rig with an 18mm female joint. If your piece is listed as having an 18mm slide, this will drop right in. If you’re working with 14mm or 10mm glass, you’ll need a different size bowl or an adapter.

It’s a straight-ahead flower bowl, so pair it with standard water pipes, beakers, or straight tubes rather than nectar collectors or specialized concentrate gear. Think of it as an upgrade or replacement for the stock slide that came with your bong.

Care & cleaning

Let the bowl cool off before you handle it for cleaning. For everyday maintenance, tap out ash and wipe off buildup. For deeper cleans, soak the bowl in isopropyl alcohol, rinse well with warm water, and let it dry completely before you use it again. Keeping it clean will also let you see that fume color shift better over time.

FAQ

  • Will this fit my bong?
    If your bong or rig has an 18mm female joint, this bowl will fit. Most full-size pieces that take bigger slides are 18mm, but if you’re not sure, compare your current bowl size or check with where you bought the piece. For smaller travel pipes or compact smoke shop pieces, 14mm is more common, so double-check before you buy.
  • What’s special about the fume finish?
    Fumed glass is made by layering vaporized metals into the glass, giving it that shifting, iridescent look. As you use the bowl and a bit of resin builds up behind the glass, the colors tend to deepen and change, so your bowl slowly develops its own unique character.
  • Is the handle sturdy enough to grab every time?
    Yes — the clear peg handle is built to be used. It’s there so you can pull the bowl out without grabbing hot glass, especially when your piece has been in steady use. Just avoid yanking it at a sharp angle; lift it straight out and you’re good.
  • How do I clean it without messing up the fume?
    Normal cleaning won’t hurt the fume at all. Let it cool, soak in isopropyl alcohol if needed, rinse, and dry. The fume is part of the glass itself, not a coating, so you don’t have to baby it. If you like a little color from use, just clean it a bit less often so some tint stays behind.
  • Can I use this for concentrates?
    This is a flower bowl, so it’s really meant for dry herb. If you’re into dabs, you’ll want a proper banger, rig, and some dedicated dab tools so you’re not gunking up your flower gear with leftover concentrate.
  • Is this better than the bowl that came with my piece?
    In a lot of cases, yes. Stock bowls are usually generic and don’t always have a good handle or clean joint work. This one gives you American-made glass, a solid 18mm fit, and a more comfortable handle to pull between hits.
  • How should I store it when I’m not using it?
    Try not to toss it loose in a drawer or bag where it can get chipped. Keeping it on your piece, in a padded tray, or next to other gear you stash in storage and packaging works well, especially if you share space with roommates or pets who bump into things.
