Reclaim Catcher

A Reclaim Catcher is an essential dab rig accessory that allows you to capture and reuse excess concentrate that would otherwise be lost during the dabbing process. Designed for serious concentrate consumers, especially hash heads who know the value of every drop, this small but mighty attachment connects between your dab nail and rig, collecting leftover oil into a removable dish—usually silicone or glass—for easy retrieval and cleaning.

Whether you're shopping for a 14mm reclaim catcher, a dab reclaim catcher, or a reclaim catcher for dab rig setups of any kind, this device offers a clean, smart way to save product, save money, and keep your rig running smoothly.

What Is Reclaim and Why Should You Catch It?

Reclaim is the residue left behind after dabbing—think of it as the oily cousin of flower resin. Though slightly less potent than the original concentrate, reclaim is still valuable, smokable, and worth saving. It accumulates due to factors like:

1. Overloading the banger – too much wax at once leads to runoff.

2. Aggressive pulls – excessive suction drags oil down the joint.

3. High-temp dabs – splatter city.

4. Low temp dabs – poor vaporization and wasted concentrate.

5. Improper carb cap use – bad tools = bad results.

The reclaim catcher intercepts that runaway oil before it gums up your rig—so instead of gunk in your piece, you've got usable reclaim in a jar.

How a Dab Reclaim Catcher Works

Installing a reclaim catcher is as easy as swapping your banger. Here's the process:

1. Remove the nail or banger from your rig.

2. Insert the reclaim catcher into the rig's joint (make sure the silicone jar is facing down).

3. Reattach your banger or nail on top.

As you dab, vapor passes through the reclaim catcher, but any oil that doesn't fully vaporize gets trapped in the attached chamber instead of dripping into your rig. After your session, simply pop off the jar, scoop out the goods, and get ready to fire up the next round.

A Brief History: Born From Necessity

While reclaim catchers might seem like a modern accessory, their design was born out of the growing popularity of dabbing and the need for efficient consumption. As the dab scene evolved—with bigger globs and more potent extracts—so did the need for more innovative gear. Reclaim catchers became the answer to wasted wax and filthy rigs, turning what was once lost into a second chance at a solid dab.

Today's reclaim catchers come in various joint sizes and angles (14mm, 18mm, 45°, and 90°), often with swappable silicone containers that make reclaim retrieval painless and mess-free.

Why Every Dabber Needs a Reclaim Catcher

• Save Money: Stretch your stash by reclaiming usable oil.

• Keep It Clean: Prevent sticky buildup in your rig's chamber and downstem.

• Easy Maintenance: Silicone jars make cleaning and reuse fast and simple.

• Eco-Friendly: Less waste means fewer cleanings, fewer wipes, and less water use.

Whether you're a casual concentrate connoisseur or a daily dabber, the reclaim catcher is a no-brainer. Think of it as a small investment that pays for itself in lost oil savings—plus, it keeps your piece looking and tasting fresh.

Sizing Tips for the Perfect Fit

Before you buy, remember:

• Joint Gender: Male or female? Opposites connect.

• Joint Angle: Match your rig's angle (typically 45° or 90°).

• Joint Size: 14mm and 18mm are the most common—make sure to match!

Pro tip: Got the wrong fit? Use a glass adapter to make it work.
