A bong screen is a small screen that you place in the bowl before filling it. It prevents smoking material from slipping through the hole into the downstem and into the water. An inconspicuous part – but one that makes the difference between a clean and a clogged draw.

Why do I need a bong screen?

Without a screen, fine crumbs quickly fall through the bowl hole. This clogs the downstem, makes the water dirty faster, and can block the draw. The screen keeps everything in the bowl where it belongs – the smoke draws cleanly, and cleaning becomes easier.

What types of bong screens are there?

  • Metal screens – inexpensive and reusable, but should be kept clean.
  • Glass screens – taste-neutral and durable, often built directly into the bowl.
  • Brass screens – the classic, flexibly moldable.

Many high-quality bowls already have a glass screen or multiple holes incorporated – then you don't need an extra screen.

Screen or bowl with built-in screen?

A bowl with a built-in glass screen is the most elegant solution: nothing slips through, nothing needs to be inserted separately, and the taste remains neutral. At EHLE., you'll find bowls with neatly crafted internal screens – buy once, never think about material slipping through again.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often do I need to change the screen?
Keep metal screens clean and replace them as needed. You can simply clean glass screens in the bowl.

Does the screen affect the taste?
Glass and brass screens hardly do. With cheap metal screens, a slight metallic taste may occur initially.
