Best Cone Pieces for Bongs in Australia: Type, Size and Material Explained
If you're purchasing cones, smoking accessories, or even the essential bong accessories in Australia, then the bong cone piece can seriously enhance your smoking experience. The quality of your cone piece is a huge factor in a snug fit, smooth airflow, and a long-lasting, durable smoking experience.
Poor quality cone pieces can result in leakage of all sorts, which can have a seriously negative effect on your smoking accessories. This guide outlines the various bong cone piece types, sizes, and materials that are available for purchase.
What is a Cone Piece?
The cone piece is a very important part of your bong setup. This is where you put your cones, and it can also hold other bong accessories such as an ash tool, bong scraper, or bong cleaning brush. The role of the cone piece is to hold your cone material and to control the airflow, making it as smooth as possible while you’re burning your material.
If you don’t have the right size cone piece for your bong setup, the performance of your bong would be very poor and not as smooth as it would be with a good-fitting cone piece.

Compatibility with different bong accessories
In choosing a cone piece, make sure that it is compatible with the bong you are using and with all your other bong accessories. This will prevent any issues such as a leak or a loose fit.
Common sizing mistakes to avoid

Glass vs. Ceramic vs. Metal comparison
When smoking with glass, the smoking experience is super clean and free from contamination. When smoking with ceramic bongs, they hold temperature really well, allowing for cool hits when required. Metal bongs, on the other hand, are the most durable of all the smoking materials and can be left out between smoking sessions. For outdoor/commuter travelling, a metal bong made of metal is ideal.
Durability and maintenance differences
In terms of cleaning cone pieces, the glass and ceramic ones are easiest to clean. However, the metal ones are the most durable of all smoking accessories, meaning that even after a long time, they can still be used without any problems. However, they must be maintained properly, and cleaning them from time to time is also part of that.
