Headdies Vortex 7 inch Mini Rig: Clear Scientific Glass for Concentrates
The Headdies Vortex 7 inch Mini Rig is a handcrafted piece from Headdies Scientific Glass Co., made in the United States from clear scientific glass. Standing 7 inches tall, it is designed with concentrate users in mind, combining precise construction with a compact footprint that suits both home use and smaller collections.
Craftsmanship and Materials
Headdies has built its reputation on meticulous handmade production, and this mini rig reflects that approach. The clear glass body lets you see the water chamber and vapour path clearly, so you can monitor your session with ease. Scientific glass is chosen for its durability and resistance to thermal stress, making it a practical material for a piece that will be exposed to heat during regular use.
The Headdies Vortex 7 inch Mini Rig weighs 2 kg and measures 30 × 20 × 10 cm, giving it a solid, stable presence on a flat surface despite its compact size.
What’s in the Box
The rig arrives ready to use for concentrate sessions straight away. Included with the piece are:
– A 14mm glass vapour dome
– A titanium (Ti) skillet/nail
Having both components included means there is no need to source accessories separately before your first use. The titanium skillet is a practical choice for a nail, as titanium retains heat well and is built to withstand repeated heating cycles.

Compact Water Chamber
The water chamber on the Headdies Vortex 7 inch Mini Rig is designed to cool vapour before it is inhaled. While the rig is compact, the chamber still performs its function effectively, filtering and cooling concentrate vapour through the water. This is one of the core reasons mini rigs remain a popular choice for concentrate use — they offer the cooling benefit of a water piece without the bulk of a larger rig.
If you are looking for alternatives with different percolation styles, the Dab Rig With Inline Perc And Triple Honeycomb Perc offers a more complex filtration setup, while the GRAV Labs 5 Inch Circuit Mini Rig Teal is another compact option worth considering.
How to Use
Fill the water chamber to the appropriate level before use. Attach the included glass dome over the 14mm joint, then heat the titanium skillet using a torch until it reaches the desired temperature. Apply your concentrate to the skillet and inhale through the mouthpiece. Allow the piece to cool before handling or cleaning.
Exploring Other Options
If you are considering a larger piece or a different style, the RooR Pistol Mini Meniscus Rig 10 inch offers a step up in size from a well-regarded brand, and the Texas Tubes Large Inline Perc Rig 36cm Tall is a larger option for those who prefer a full-sized rig experience.
