The EG Symbols Beaker (EG-02) is a 14-inch, 7 mm thick borosilicate glass beaker bong designed as a long-term, premium workhorse for smoke shops and distributors. Weighing around 990 g, it has real in-hand weight and a stable footprint on the counter.
The tube features EG’s “Symbols” pattern in sandblast relief – the background is frosted while the symbol artwork stands out in clearer, raised glass. This gives the beaker a three-dimensional, tactile finish that looks and feels much higher-end than simple printed or decal designs. Supplied with an 18 mm downstem and 14 mm bowl, it is ready to sell as a complete set.
Benefits for Your Smoke Shop
- Clear mid-/premium upsell slot
Staff can position it simply:
“14″, 7 mm Symbols Beaker with sandblast relief tube, 18/14 mm set-up, multiple colors.”
This sits clearly above basic clear beakers and thin minis. - High perceived value without complicated function
You are not selling a difficult recycler; this is a familiar beaker with premium thickness and artwork. Easy to explain, easy to move. - Flexible wall and web presentation
Multiple colors plus a unified Symbols design make it suitable for:- “EG 7 mm Sandblast Collection” shelves in-store
- Clear product family presentation on wholesale catalogues and B2B sites.
- Reliable for daily use
7 mm borosilicate and a thick base handle normal knocks and frequent handling better than commodity beakers, which means fewer complaints and returns. - Good fit for both single shops and chains
Simple spec, strong design, and multiple color options make it easy to standardise across store networks.
Usage & Care Recommendations
Usage
- Fill the beaker until the downstem slits are just submerged; overfilling increases drag and risks water reaching the neck.
- Always place the beaker on a flat, stable surface, not close to shelf or counter edges – it is thick, but a fall from height can still break glass.
- Use only correct 18 mm downstems and 14 mm bowls; forcing the wrong joint size can chip ground-glass sections even on 7 mm tubing.
- Advise end-users to take steady pulls and let the beaker volume handle the cooling, instead of “chugging” the piece.
Care & Maintenance
- Let the glass cool naturally before cleaning; avoid sudden hot–cold changes that stress the material.
- For daily care, empty used water and rinse with warm water.
- For deeper cleaning, soak with isopropyl alcohol + coarse salt or a glass-safe cleaner; shake gently, then rinse thoroughly.
- On the sandblast relief Symbols area, avoid harsh abrasive pads; rely on soaking and a soft cloth so the frosted background and raised symbols stay crisp.
- Allow the beaker to dry completely before going back on the shelf or into cartons to prevent odour and mineral spotting.
Display & Retail Tips
- Group all colorways in a dedicated block with a simple card, such as:
“EG Symbols Beaker – 14″ • 7 mm • Sandblast Relief Tube • 18/14 mm • EG-02.” - Use side or top lighting to highlight the relief pattern; the contrast between frosted and clear glass reads well under direct light.
- Merchandise compatible ash catchers, bowls, and cleaners nearby and encourage bundle sales (beaker + ash catcher + cleaner) to increase average ticket.
