Reclaim Catcher to Pipe to Banger Sizing Chart

I have a pipe but would like to add a Reclaim Catcher or an Ash Catcher before adding a quartz banger or dab nail , which reclaim catcher do i need and which bangers will it work with?

A Reclaim Catcher or Reclaim Banger is a fantastic investment to keep your pipe clean and literally catch reclaim which can be used later. Another great thing about reclaim catchers is that they can be used as an adapter changing the angle and size of your dab rig or bongs connection, opening you up to a plethora of new banger options.

The most popular banger in the market is the 14mm Male 90 Degree Angle. We have so many of those quartz bangers to choose from and that's the first size made for any new style banger being created. No matter what joint size, gender or joint angle, there is a reclaim catcher that can be paired with your dab rig or bong to transform it into a 14mm 90 degree female joint compatible with the most popular 14mm male 90 degree bangers.
It’s up for debate and preference as to whether a 10mm or 14mm joint size is better to dab with, which is why the 10mm male 90 degree banger is the next banger made of any new design.

Use the chart below to find out, simply find the line which has your pipe and go across to find the appropriate sized Reclaim Catcher and Banger for your Bong or Rig.
When looking at this chart you will need to understand 3 measurements of you pipe’s joint.

  • Pipe Joint Size: 10mm, 14mm or 18mm
  • Pipe Joint Gender: Male or Female
  • Pipe Joint Angle: 45 or 900 Degree Angle


To understand what size connection you have, whether a 10mm, 14mm or 18mm, utilize the image below. You will want to match the mm size of the dab rig to the mm size of the reclaim catcher. If you have an 18mm pipe connection, you will want an 18mm reclaim catcher connection.

Next understand what gender connection you have is the pipe female, meaning the banger will insert into the pipe connection. Or is it a male pipe, where the banger or dab nail will seal covering the pipe connection on the outside of the pipe connection. You will want to look for the opposing gender when finding the proper match for your reclaim catcher. If your dab rig is a female then you will want a male banger, if your dab rig is a male you will want a female reclaim catcher. Refer to the image below.

Then you will want to understand if the connection is 90 degree, straight up, or is it 45 degree, on an angle. If the pipe is a 45 degree connection you will want a 45 degree angle reclaim catcher. If the piper is a 90 degree angle you will want a 90 degree reclaim catcher.
So if you have a 14mm Female 90 Degree pipe joint, you will want to use the 14mm Male 90 Degree Reclaim Catcher.
