Pack the bowl, cover the carb, apply heat to the bowl while inhaling, then release the carb to clear the smoke. No water, no setup required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow the carb works:\u003c\/strong\u003e The carb (the small hole on the side) controls airflow. Covering it while you draw builds up smoke in the pipe; releasing it at the end of your inhale flushes the remaining smoke into your lungs cleanly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBorosilicate glass:\u003c\/strong\u003e Higher-grade glass that handles heat better than standard glass. Significantly more durable and won't impart any flavor to the smoke.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBowl size matters:\u003c\/strong\u003e An 18mm bowl is a standard, medium-sized bowl. It holds enough for a couple hits in a solo session — grind your herb for more even burning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCleaning keeps flavor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Even a simple hand pipe benefits from regular cleaning. Resin buildup changes the flavor and restricts airflow. Weekly ISO cleans keep it performing well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e MJ Arsenal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Borosilicate Glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.5\" x 2.5\" x 2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBowl diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarb position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Left\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\" x 2.75\" x 2.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Amber, Azure, Blush, Cactus, Clear, Lavender, Reef, Slate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handmade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry herb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MJ Arsenal","offers":[{"title":"Clear","offer_id":49783411966189,"sku":"MJA-HP-GROTTO-CLR","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amber","offer_id":49783411998957,"sku":"MJA-HP-GROTTO-AMB","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cactus","offer_id":49783412031725,"sku":"MJA-HP-GROTTO-CACTS","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Reef","offer_id":49783412064493,"sku":"MJA-HP-GROTTO-REEF","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Azure","offer_id":49783412097261,"sku":"MJA-HP-GROTTO-AZURE","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Lavender","offer_id":49783412130029,"sku":"MJA-HP-GROTTO-LVNDR","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blush","offer_id":49783412162797,"sku":"MJA-HP-GROTTO-BLSH","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Slate","offer_id":49783412195565,"sku":"MJA-HP-GROTTO-SLTE","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0731\/6144\/1517\/files\/mj-arsenal-grotto-hand-pipe.jpg?v=1776193035","url":"https:\/\/vgear.com\/products\/mj-arsenal-grotto-hand-pipe","provider":"VGEAR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
