Carb Caps

Carb Caps

A carb cap is the small lid that sits over a hot quartz banger or nail to trap heat and pull airflow across the dab, so it vaporizes low and slow instead of burning off. It is the cheap add-on that turns a banger into a complete setup, which makes it an easy impulse grab at the register and a steady reorder. Smoke shops and dispensaries stock bubble, directional, and flat caps next to their dab rigs and dab tools as the piece every dabber eventually replaces or upgrades.

What you’ll stock

Carb caps are a small-dollar, high-turn accessory. Keep a few shapes on the case so buyers can match the cap to the banger they run.

  • Bubble caps — a round glass ball on a stem; spin it to move oil around the dish. The most-asked-for shape.
  • Directional caps — an angled air channel you rotate by hand to push vapor across the bucket. Common on flat-top bangers.
  • Spinner caps — a directional cap used with terp pearls; the airflow spins the pearls to keep oil moving.
  • Flat caps — a simple disc that seals the top of a banger or slurper. Cheapest option, no moving airflow.
  • Joint sizes — caps are sized to the banger’s bucket opening, not the joint. Stock common diameters so they fit 10mm, 14mm, and 18mm bangers.

What is a carb cap?

A carb cap is a lid that covers the top of a banger or nail while you dab, restricting airflow so the concentrate vaporizes at a lower temperature. By capping the bucket, it lowers the pressure inside and lets the oil boil off at a cooler heat, which saves product and gives a smoother pull. It is the difference between a raw banger and a finished low-temp setup.

What does a carb cap do?

A carb cap controls airflow and pressure over the dab so the oil vaporizes evenly instead of pooling and scorching. When you place it on a hot banger and turn it, the cap drags the puddle of concentrate around the dish so heat reaches all of it, not just the bottom. The result is more vapor from less material and far less wasted oil stuck to the quartz.

How do you use a carb cap?

You drop the dab into a heated banger, set the carb cap on top, and slowly inhale while rotating the cap to move the oil around the dish. The cap seals the bucket so airflow stays restricted, which keeps the temperature low and the vapor thick. Lift the cap when you are done to clear any remaining vapor, then wipe the banger while it is still warm.

  • Bubble cap — spin the ball to swirl oil in a round-bottom banger.
  • Directional cap — rotate the air hole toward the wall of the bucket to push vapor across it.
  • Spinner + pearls — the airflow turns the terp pearls, which do the stirring for you.

What size carb cap do I need?

Carb caps are sized to the inside diameter of the banger’s bucket, not to the joint size of the rig. A cap that is too small falls into the dish and one that is too wide will not seal, so most shops carry a couple of standard widths that cover the common 25mm flat-top and round-bottom bangers. When in doubt, match the cap to the banger style rather than the 10mm, 14mm, or 18mm joint.

Bubble cap vs directional cap — what is the difference?

A bubble cap uses a round glass ball you spin to swirl oil in a round-bottom banger, while a directional cap uses an angled air hole you aim to push vapor across a flat-top. Bubble caps suit older round-bottom buckets; directional and spinner caps suit flat-top bangers and slurpers. Carrying both covers nearly every banger your customers walk in with.

Is there an order minimum on wholesale carb caps?

No. You can mix shapes and sizes with no minimums, no pallet commitments. Reorder whatever moves.

Do I need a license to buy wholesale?

You’ll need a seller’s permit or sales-tax (resale) certificate to open a wholesale account — that’s it. No medical or cannabis license is required, since glass and accessories aren’t controlled. Sign up, send us the cert, and we’ll get you approved.

How much margin is in carb caps?

Most shops price carb caps at about 2x the wholesale price, plus roughly $10 on top for wiggle room. They are a low-dollar add-on, so the markup rides easily next to a banger or rig sale. You set your own retail price.

How fast can I restock?

Orders ship in about 2 business days. We are a small crew based in Huntington Beach, California, with over a decade in the industry, so reorders move without the lead times you get from overseas suppliers.

What if a cap arrives broken?

Send us a photo and we replace it — breakage in transit is on us. That is the Arrival Guarantee.

Can I get custom or private-label carb caps?

We run our own line, so custom and private-label work is possible. Send us an email for a quote.

What goes into a full dab setup?

A complete dab station is the rig plus the parts that wear out and get upgraded, which is where the add-on sales live. Pair carb caps with a quartz banger, terp pearls and pillars, dab tools, and a temperature reader so a buyer can leave with everything to run low-temp dabs off one dab rig.
