4.5″ STAINLESS STEEL DAB TOOL W/ SILICONE TIPS

The 4.5" Stainless Steel Dab Tool with Silicone Tips is a dual-ended dabber built for concentrate enthusiasts who want precise control without the sticky mess. Featuring a spoon scoop on one end and a pointed tip on the other, this compact tool handles everything from crumbly wax to runny sauce. The silicone-tipped ends protect your banger from scratches while keeping concentrates from sticking where you don't want them.

Why this tool earns its spot in your kit

  • Two tips, zero fumbling — spoon scoop grabs larger portions while the pointed end handles precision work and scraping
  • Silicone-tipped protection — no metal-on-glass contact means your quartz banger stays scratch-free
  • Non-stick handling — silicone ends release concentrates cleanly instead of hoarding your material
  • Stainless steel durability — the core won't bend, rust, or wear out like cheaper alternatives
  • Compact 4.5 inch length — short enough for travel, long enough to keep your fingers away from heat
  • Multiple colors available — grab one that matches your setup or stands out so you don't lose it

Best for

This tool fits dabbers who rotate through different concentrate consistencies. If you're working with shatter one day and live resin the next, having both tip styles on one tool saves you from digging through a drawer. The silicone tips also make it a solid choice for anyone who's chipped a banger with a careless metal dabber before. At this size, it travels well in a small kit or fits into a concentrate jar pocket without poking through anything.

How to use it

The spoon end works best for scooping up crumble, budder, or any concentrate that holds its shape. Dig under the material, lift, and drop it into your heated banger. For stickier stuff like sauce or rosin, the pointed tip lets you portion out exactly what you want without dragging half the jar with it. The silicone releases cleanly when you touch it to a heated surface, so you're not wasting material or leaving residue on the tool.

Between sessions, wipe the tips with a dry cloth while they're still slightly warm. For deeper cleaning, let the tool cool completely, then use a cotton swab with isopropyl alcohol on the silicone portions. The stainless steel body handles alcohol fine, but avoid soaking the entire tool for extended periods. Dry thoroughly before your next use.

One thing worth noting: silicone tips aren't meant for direct torch contact. Use this tool to load your concentrates, not to manipulate material while the banger is actively being heated. The silicone handles residual heat from a warm banger without issue, but direct flame will damage it.

Works well with

Pair this with a silicone dab mat to catch any drops and keep your station organized. The tool rests flat without rolling, which sounds minor until you've chased a round dabber across a table mid-session. For storage between uses, a small silicone container or dedicated tool holder keeps the tips clean and ready.

Frequently asked questions

Will the silicone tips melt if I touch them to a hot banger?

The silicone handles contact with a warm banger that's at dabbing temperature without issue. What you want to avoid is touching the tips directly to a red-hot banger or exposing them to open flame. Let your banger cool to your normal dabbing temp before using the tool, and you'll be fine.

Can I use this for all types of concentrates?

Yes. The dual-tip design covers most consistencies. Use the spoon for crumble, budder, and wax. Use the pointed tip for sauce, live resin, and anything that strings or sticks. For diamonds or very hard shatter, the pointed tip works best to break off portions.

How do I clean concentrate off the silicone tips?

Warm silicone releases residue more easily, so a quick wipe after each dab keeps things manageable. For buildup, let the tool cool, then use isopropyl alcohol on a cotton swab. The silicone won't absorb the alcohol or degrade from occasional cleaning. Just make sure it's fully dry before your next session.

Is this tool long enough to keep my hands safe from heat?

At 4.5 inches, your fingers stay a reasonable distance from the banger during normal use. It's not as long as some 6-7 inch dabbers, so if you run particularly hot or have concerns about heat proximity, you might prefer something longer. For most dabbers using standard temps, this length works fine.

Do the silicone tips come off or are they permanent?

The silicone tips are fixed to the stainless steel body. They're not removable or replaceable, so treat them well. This also means they won't pop off mid-dab and fall into your banger.

What colors are available?

Multiple colors are available. Contact the shop for current stock if you need a specific color for your setup.

How does this compare to an all-metal dab tool?

All-metal tools are more heat-resistant and can be torched clean, which some people prefer. The tradeoff is that metal scratches quartz and glass, and concentrates stick to metal more aggressively. This silicone-tipped version protects your dab rig components and releases material more cleanly, but you need to keep it away from direct flame. Pick based on whether scratch prevention or torch cleaning matters more to you.
