HITTN 8-ARM TREE PERC BEAKER BONG WITH SPLASH GUARD

Every component of this beaker bong is chosen to improve your session. From the material thickness to the joint size, the details work together to create a reliable and high-performing piece. See how each feature translates into a tangible benefit.

These specifications create a bong that is not only effective and durable but also easy to use and compatible with standard accessories.

• The 8-arm tree percolator is the engine for a smooth, filtered hit.
• 7mm thick borosilicate glass offers peace of mind through enhanced durability.
• A tall 18-inch height gives smoke more time to cool down naturally.
• The 14mm joint is the industry standard, ensuring easy upgrades and replacements.

This bong combines three powerful features—a tree perc, a splash guard, and an ice pinch—to completely transform the smoking experience from harsh to smooth.

What Does The 8-Arm Tree Percolator Do?

Think of the tree percolator as a purification chamber. As you draw, smoke is pulled from the downstem and forced up into a central trunk before being split into eight separate "arms." Each arm has small slits at the bottom. This design dramatically increases the smoke's surface area, forcing it to bubble extensively through the water. The result is rapid cooling and filtration, removing impurities for a noticeably cleaner and smoother taste.

Why Is A Beaker Bong With A Splash Guard Better?

The beaker base provides two key advantages: a large water volume for better filtration and a wide, stable footprint that prevents it from being easily knocked over. The splash guard, a domed or angled glass piece in the neck, acts as a barrier. As the percolator bubbles intensely, the guard deflects any rising water, ensuring that only clean, dry smoke reaches you. No more unpleasant sips of bong water.

Can I Use Ice With This Bong?

Yes. This bong includes a three-pronged ice pinch (or ice catcher) located in the neck above the splash guard. You can drop several ice cubes down the neck, where they will rest on the pinch. As smoke passes over the ice, it undergoes a final stage of cooling. This delivers an exceptionally chilled and smooth draw, perfect for sensitive users or large hits.

Each feature plays a distinct role in cooling, filtering, and drying the smoke for a superior session.

• The tree percolator diffuses smoke through eight arms for intense bubbling.
• The splash guard physically blocks water from traveling up the neck.
• The beaker base provides superior stability compared to straight tubes.
• Ice pinches allow for the addition of ice, creating the coolest possible hit.

While the Hittn 8-Arm Tree Perc offers a premier experience, it's helpful to see how it compares to other popular styles you might be considering. Here's a quick look at other common beaker bongs in a similar price range.

The Hittn 8-Arm Tree Perc stands out for its focus on maximum smoothness and cooling, making it a premium choice in its class.

• Tree percs offer more complex filtration than simple beakers.
• Honeycomb percs are known for low drag but can be harder to clean.
• Straight tubes clear faster but are generally less stable than beakers.
• This Hittn bong balances stability, filtration, and advanced cooling features.

Keeping your tree percolator clean is the key to maintaining its performance and flavor. Resin buildup can clog the delicate slits and reduce diffusion. Regular cleaning is simple and prevents permanent staining.

What Is The Best Way To Clean A Tree Perc Bong?

A simple soak and shake with isopropyl alcohol and salt is highly effective. The key is to be gentle and let the solution do the work to avoid damaging the internal glass arms.

For extra prevention, pair your bong with an ash catcher to reduce debris reaching the perc.

6-Step Cleaning Workflow

1. Rinse Thoroughly: Empty the old water and rinse the entire bong with warm (not hot) water to remove loose debris.
2. Add Cleaning Solution: Pour in a generous amount of 91%+ isopropyl alcohol, enough to submerge the entire tree percolator.
3. Add Abrasive: Add coarse salt, like Epsom or sea salt, to act as a gentle scrubber for the glass.
4. Plug the Openings: Use rubber plugs or your hands to securely cover the mouthpiece and joint opening.
5. Soak and Shake Gently: Let it soak for 10-15 minutes. Then, shake gently in a swirling motion. Avoid vigorous shaking that could damage the perc.
6. Final Rinse: Pour out the dirty solution and rinse thoroughly with warm water until all alcohol and salt are gone. Let it air dry completely.

A consistent cleaning routine will keep your bong hitting like new and preserve the clarity of the glass.

• Regular cleaning prevents clogs in the percolator slits.
• Use isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt for the best results.
• Gentle shaking is crucial to protect the internal glass arms.
• Always rinse thoroughly to remove any residual cleaning solution.

Proper setup is essential for getting the most out of your new piece. The right water level will activate the percolator correctly without causing splashback.

What Is The Best Water Level For A Tree Perc?

For a beaker bong with a tree percolator, you will use a two-level water system. First, fill the main beaker base so the bottom slits of the downstem are fully submerged by about half an inch. Second, pour water down the mouthpiece until the level sits just below the tree percolator's central "trunk." The goal is to submerge the perc's bottom slits without overfilling. You can test the function with a quick, dry pull—you should see strong bubbling in both chambers with no water reaching the splash guard.

What Should I Expect From My First Use?

Compared to a bong without a percolator, expect a significantly smoother and less harsh draw. You may notice a slightly increased pull resistance due to the smoke traveling through the complex perc. The smoke will feel much cooler on your throat and lungs, especially if you add ice. The overall experience is less about a sharp hit and more about a large, comfortable, and highly filtered volume of smoke.

Proper water levels and knowing what to expect will ensure a perfect first session and beyond.

• The ideal water level submerges the downstem and percolator slits.
• Test your water level with a dry pull before packing a bowl.
• Expect a cooler, smoother hit with slightly more pull resistance.
• The experience prioritizes comfort and filtration over a harsh, direct hit.
