Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What sizes are available for the RAW Whirlwind Glass Filter Tip?
A: The Whirlwind comes in two sizes – 10mm and 12mm diameter – so you can match it perfectly with your preferred rolling papers. The 10mm works brilliantly with standard king-size papers, whilst the 12mm is ideal for larger cones.

Q: How does the spiral design actually improve my smoking experience?
A: Brilliant question, mate! The spiral interior creates a whirlwind effect that increases the smoke’s travel distance and exposure to the glass surface. This cools the smoke down before it reaches you, giving you smoother, less harsh pulls. Plus, it looks absolutely mesmerising when you’re using it.

Q: Are these filter tips reusable, and how do I clean them?
A: Absolutely reusable – that’s the beauty of glass! Simply soak your Whirlwind tip in isopropyl alcohol (90% or higher works best) for 15-30 minutes, give it a rinse with warm water, and you’re sorted. For stubborn residue, use a pipe cleaner or small brush. You’ll save money and help the planet – win-win!

Q: Is glass safer than cardboard roaches?
A: Glass filter tips like the Whirlwind offer several advantages over traditional cardboard roaches. They don’t burn, don’t add any taste to your smoke, provide better airflow, and are completely reusable. Plus, there’s no risk of accidentally inhaling tiny paper fibres. Many smokers find glass tips provide a cleaner, purer experience overall.

Q: How do I know if the tip is properly inserted?
A: Your Whirlwind should sit snugly in your paper or cone without wobbling. If it’s the 10mm size in a king-size paper, it should fit with just a tiny bit of paper overlap to seal it in. You shouldn’t need to force it – if it’s not sliding in easily, you might need the smaller size or a slightly looser roll.

Q: Can these break easily?
A: RAW’s glass tips are made from quality, durable glass that can handle regular use. That said, they’re still glass – so don’t go chucking them across the room or dropping them on tile floors! Treat them with a bit of care (like you would your favourite piece), and they’ll last you ages. Many customers have been using the same tips for years.
