GOOSE NECK GLASS DROP DOWN
About the Product
The Honeybee Herb Goose Neck Glass Drop Down is a 14mm adapter designed to protect your rig from heat and help collect reclaim. It's made for 90-degree dab rigs that use a 14mm female joint.
Our Goose Neck Glass Drop Down is an essential adapter for any serious dabber with a 14mm setup. Made from strong, heat-resistant borosilicate glass, it creates important space between your heating element and your dab rig. This protects your piece from heat damage and catches any unused concentrate, or reclaim.
The unique "goose neck" curve is designed to keep your banger farther from your face and at a more usable angle. It's a simple accessory that provides multiple solutions: it helps your rig last longer, saves valuable reclaim, and makes your dabbing sessions more comfortable. This adapter fits rigs with a 14mm female joint and accepts bangers with a 14mm male joint.
Product Specifications
Understanding the specs shows how this simple piece of glass improves your entire setup. We chose each material and measurement for durability and function, from protecting your rig to saving concentrate.
What Makes Borosilicate Glass The Right Material?
We use 100% borosilicate glass because it's built to handle rapid temperature changes without cracking. When you heat a banger to high temperatures, the drop down connected to it needs to withstand that thermal stress. Borosilicate glass provides the strength and reliability needed to protect your investment.
| Specification | Value (What it is) | Benefit (Why it matters) |
|---|---|---|
| 100% Borosilicate Glass | A type of glass highly resistant to thermal shock. | Prevents cracking from heat, protecting your rig and ensuring a long lifespan. |
| 14mm Male to 14mm Female Joint | Connects a 14mm female rig joint to a 14mm male banger. | Provides a universal fit for the most common dab rig and banger size. |
| Goose Neck Shape | An angled, curved design for the adapter's body. | Keeps heat away from the rig's main joint and prevents reclaim from spilling back. |
What Are The Main Features?
This adapter is more than just a connector; its design includes specific features that address common issues dabbers face. From the shape of the neck to its dual functionality, every aspect is built with purpose.
Why Is The Goose Neck Shape Important?
The signature curve of the goose neck serves two key functions. First, it moves the hot banger away and slightly down from the main body of your rig, creating a safe distance. Second, this angle ensures that any excess concentrate drips down and collects in the arm of the adapter instead of flowing toward your rig's joint, keeping your primary piece clean.
How Does It Protect My Dab Rig?
By acting as a heat barrier, the drop down absorbs the intense, direct heat from your torch and e-nail. This prevents the joint on your expensive dab rig from expanding and contracting rapidly, a common cause of stress fractures and permanent damage over time. It's a small investment to protect a much larger one.
How To Install Your Drop Down Adapter
Setting up your Goose Neck Drop Down is quick and easy. Follow these simple steps to add it to your dab rig and start protecting your glass in seconds.
- Prepare Your Rig: Ensure your dab rig's 14mm female joint is clean and free of debris.
- Insert the Drop Down: Gently insert the 14mm male joint of the Goose Neck Drop Down into your rig's joint. Ensure a snug, stable fit.
- Attach Your Banger: Place your 14mm male banger into the 14mm female joint at the other end of the drop down.
- Check Alignment: Confirm the banger is sitting level and provides enough clearance for your carb cap and torch.
- Test Stability: Give the setup a gentle wiggle to ensure all connections are secure before heating.

How To Clean Your Goose Neck Drop Down
Keeping your drop down clean ensures pure flavor and optimal performance. Since it's designed to catch reclaim, it will require regular maintenance.
- Disassemble: Carefully remove the drop down from your rig and detach the banger.
- Soak: Submerge the glass adapter in a container of isopropyl alcohol (91% or higher) for at least 30 minutes.
- Scrub: For stubborn residue, add coarse salt to the container and shake gently. The salt acts as an abrasive.
- Rinse & Dry: Rinse thoroughly with warm water and let it air dry completely before reattaching it to your rig.
