6″ MARIA NECK HOURGLASS RIG

The 6-inch Maria Neck Hourglass Rig is a compact glass dab rig built for dabbers who want solid function without taking up half the coffee table. The distinctive hourglass body and curved maria neck create a smooth airpath that cools vapor before it reaches you, while the included 14mm male 90-degree quartz banger means you're ready to session right out of the box.

Key benefits

• Ready to dab immediately — comes with a 14mm 90-degree banger so you're not hunting for compatible hardware
• Smooth, cooled hits — the maria neck curve and hourglass chamber work together to create a longer airpath for vapor cooling
• Desktop-friendly footprint — at 6 inches tall, it fits comfortably on your dab mat without towering over everything
• Color accent details — colored lip and marble add personality to the clear glass body
• Multiple color options — choose the accent color that matches your setup
• Stable base — hourglass shape keeps weight low for better tip resistance

Who this rig is for

This piece works well for dabbers who want something more refined than a basic beaker rig but don't need a recycler or elaborate percolation system. It's a solid choice for daily drivers, apartment setups, or anyone building their first proper dab station. The compact size also makes it reasonable for travel if you've got a padded case.

If you're coming from a silicone rig and want to graduate to glass, this is an approachable entry point. The maria neck gives you that classic scientific glass look without the fragility of super-thin tubing.

How the maria neck design works

The maria neck is that curved, pinched section connecting the chamber to the mouthpiece. It's not just aesthetic — the curve forces vapor to travel a longer path before reaching your lips, which means more time to cool down. Combined with the hourglass body shape, you get a rig that hits smoother than a straight tube of the same height.

The 90-degree banger joint puts the nail at a comfortable angle for loading and capping. You're not reaching over the top of the rig or working at awkward angles. Heat up, drop your concentrate, cap it with a carb cap, and pull.

The hourglass chamber does double duty: the narrow waist concentrates vapor for a denser hit, while the wider base gives you stability and water volume. You're not constantly refilling or dealing with a tippy piece.

Specifications

What's included

• 6-inch Maria Neck Hourglass Glass Rig
• 14mm male 90-degree quartz banger

Compatibility notes

The 14mm male joint means you'll need female accessories. Most standard 14mm female bangers, nails, and adapters will fit if you want to swap out the included banger down the road. The 90-degree angle is the most common configuration, so finding replacement hardware or upgrades is straightforward.

For dab tools, anything in your current collection will work. The chamber opening is standard size, so you're not dealing with weird compatibility issues. A directional or bubble carb cap will give you the best results with the included banger.

Care and cleaning

Let it cool completely after sessions, then pour out old water. For regular maintenance, a quick rinse keeps things fresh. For deeper cleans, soak in isopropyl alcohol, rinse thoroughly, and let dry before your next use. The maria neck can collect residue in the curve, so a small brush or pipe cleaner helps reach that spot.

Frequently asked questions

What size banger fits this rig?

This rig has a 14mm male joint, so you'll need a 14mm female banger or nail. The included banger is a 90-degree quartz piece that's ready to use, but any 14mm female accessory will fit if you want to upgrade later.

Is this rig good for beginners?

Yes. The compact size, included banger, and straightforward design make it a solid starting point for someone new to dabbing. You're not dealing with complicated percolators or finicky recycler function — just fill with water, heat the banger, and go.

How much water should I put in it?

Fill until the water level sits about half an inch above the bottom of the downstem. You want enough to create bubbles and filtration, but not so much that you get splashback when you pull. Start low and add more if needed.

Can I use this for flower with a bowl?

Technically yes, if you get a 14mm female flower bowl to replace the banger. But honestly, this rig is optimized for concentrates. The smaller chamber and maria neck are designed for the lighter vapor from dabs, not the heavier smoke from flower. You'd be better off with a dedicated piece for herb.

What colors are available?

The rig comes in multiple color options for the lip and marble accents. The body is clear glass, with the colored details adding visual interest. Contact the shop for current color availability.

Is the glass thick enough to be durable?

It's standard thickness glass — not paper thin, but not scientific-grade heavy wall either. Treat it like any glass piece: don't knock it over, don't set it on hard edges, and store it somewhere it won't roll or fall. Keep it on a silicone dab mat during sessions for extra protection.

Does the maria neck actually make a difference?

It does. The curved neck extends the vapor path, which means the hit has more time to cool before it reaches you. It's not a dramatic difference like adding a recycler, but compared to a straight neck rig of the same height, you'll notice smoother pulls. Plus it looks better than a straight tube.
