A downstem is a primary glass piece that fits with a water pipe joint. It fulfills everything. A bong with no downstem is a bottle with a hole.
Downstems work by carrying smoke from the slide (or bowl piece) to the glass pipe water chamber to filter and cool off each hit. They come in different sizes and lengths, so know what you need before buying.
Downstems have a different measurement not related to other glass pieces, such as length. Ensure to start at the sandblasted segment base and carry on until the end, past the diffuser when measuring length. When measuring the entire glass piece length, you will have the wrong length and may buy the wrong downstem.
They are made with various percolators, offering super filtration and allowing smokers to modify their favorite bongs. If you’re considering replacing your classic slitted downstem, many trusted head shops have wide selections of water pipe sizes for you.
