EG Cross Beaker – 14″ Sandblast Relief Beaker (EG-03)

The EG Cross Beaker is a 14-inch, thick-wall borosilicate beaker designed as a premium upgrade over basic glass. Made from 7 mm boro glass and built on a wide beaker base, it offers a solid, weighty feel and high stability on the counter. The tube features EG’s distinctive cross pattern in sandblast relief – the background is frosted while the cross artwork stands out in clearer, raised glass – giving the piece a three-dimensional, tactile finish that looks and feels high-end. The beaker is supplied with an 18 mm downstem and 14 mm bowl for immediate retail sale.

Benefits for Your Smoke Shop

• Clear step-up from generic beakers
  Easy staff script: “14″, 7 mm thick Cross Beaker with sandblast relief tube, 18/14 mm set-up.” That positions it immediately above basic clear beakers.
• High perceived value & margin potential
  Thick glass, relief artwork, and color options justify mid-to-premium price points and a stronger gross margin for smoke shops and distributors.
• Flexible merchandising, or design-blocked rows (Clock / Cross / Triangle / Diamond, etc.) on the same 14″ beaker shelf.
• Low learning curve for end-users
  Classic beaker with removable downstem and standard joint sizes reduces customer confusion and post-sale issues.
• Distributor-friendly SKU
  The straightforward beaker format is easy to pack, palletise, and replenish in volume alongside your other 7 mm EG beakers.

Usage & Care Recommendations

Usage

• Fill the beaker so the downstem slits are just submerged; too much water increases drag and can push water into the neck.
• Always place the bong on a flat, stable surface, away from counter edges; the wide base is stable but can still be knocked if positioned too close to the front.
• Use only correctly sized 18 mm downstems and 14 mm bowls; forcing the wrong joint can chip ground-glass sections.
• Encourage end-users to pack bowls moderately and draw steadily, letting the beaker volume do the cooling work.

Care & Maintenance

• Allow the glass to cool naturally after use before rinsing to avoid thermal shock.
• For daily cleaning, empty the old water and rinse with warm water.
• For heavier build-up, soak with isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt (or a glass-safe cleaner), then rinse thoroughly.
• On the sandblast relief cross area, avoid aggressive scrubbing with abrasive pads; rely on soaking and a soft cloth so the frosted background and raised cross details stay crisp.
• Let the beaker dry completely before returning it to the shelf or repacking it into cartons, to prevent odour and mineral spotting.

Display & Retail Tips

• Group all colorways together under a simple card, such as:
  “EG Cross Beaker – 14″ • 7 mm • Sandblast Relief Tube • 18/14 mm”.
• Use side or top lighting to highlight the cross relief and color while keeping the overall wall look clean and “scientific”.
• Merchandise compatible ash catchers, spare bowls, and cleaners nearby; train staff to offer bundle deals (beaker + ash catcher + cleaner) to lift basket size.

• • Approx. 14″ beaker format
    Full-size beaker height that reads as a serious piece on the wall and clearly sits above entry-level models.

• • 7 mm thick borosilicate glass
    Heavy 7 mm wall thickness delivers better impact resistance and a premium in-hand feel compared with standard thin-wall imports.

• • Sandblast relief cross design on the tube
    The cross pattern is created using sandblast relief: the surrounding area is frosted, and the cross motif stands out in relief, so the artwork is permanent, textured, and will not peel like decals.

• • 18 mm downstem with 14 mm bowl
    Classic 18→14 mm set-up that most consumers recognise; easy for retailers to sell as a complete, ready-to-use kit.

• • Multiple transparent color options
    Distributed in various colors, allowing both assorted-color and single-color programmes for different accounts.

• • EG GLASS beaker series compatibility
    Part of the same family as your Clock, Diamond, Square, Triangle, and Slyme Leaf beakers, so it fits cleanly into a wider “EG 7 mm Beaker” wall.
