Dum Los Silicone Phunnel Tobacco Head - Unbreakable Hookah Tobacco Head in 7 Colors

The Dum Los Silicone Phunnel Tobacco Head is a silicone hookah tobacco head. It is 10 cm high, has a diameter of 8 cm and weighs 150 grams. The material is soft and flexible, so the head won't break if you drop it. That's a big advantage compared to ceramic or clay heads. You can choose from seven colors: gold, silver, blue, black, pink, red, and green. This way, the head matches any hookah and any interior.

Why silicone?

Silicone is a flexible material that can withstand a lot of heat without cracking or melting. Where a ceramic hookah tobacco head might shatter with a sudden change in temperature, a silicone head simply handles it. That saves frustration and money. Moreover, silicone does not absorb flavors, so after washing, you can immediately start a fresh session without residual flavors from the previous one.

Because the material does not conduct heat quickly, the outside of the head gets less hot than with a clay or ceramic variant. You can hold and adjust the head during a session without burning your fingers. This is useful if you want to move coals or lift the head briefly to check the status of the tobacco.

The phunnel shape: what does it do?

The phunnel shape has a central tube in the middle of the head. All holes are around that tube, not in the bottom. This has a practical consequence: the molasses from the shisha tobacco stays in the head and does not drain away through the stem. You don't lose flavor, the stem stays clean, and you smoke the tobacco completely. Traditional heads with holes in the bottom allow molasses to drain, which results in a less full flavor and a dirty stem.

The phunnel construction also works well with a heat management device like a Kaloud or Hot Screen. The head is wide enough to support most HMD models. If you prefer to use aluminum foil, that's also perfectly fine. Just poke several small holes around the rim, not in the middle above the tube.

Sizes and specifications

The head has the following dimensions:

• Total height: 10 cm
• Diameter: 8 cm
• Weight: 150 grams
• Material: silicone
• Available in 7 colors

The dimensions fit most common hookahs. If in doubt, check the connection size of your hookah.

Who is this head suitable for?

This head is ideal for anyone who smokes shisha regularly and doesn't want to deal with breakage or hassle. Are you just starting out and don't want to risk an expensive ceramic head right away? Then this is a smart start. Do you have years of experience and want a head that can also be taken on the go without risk? Then silicone is also the logical choice. The seven color options also make it easy to choose a head that matches your hookah or shisha setup.

How to set up the head?

The head fits onto the stem of your hookah via a standard connection. First, check that the rubber seal is properly in place. If no rubber is included or yours is worn, you can find separate hookah rubbers in our store. Press the head firmly but gently onto the stem. The silicone is flexible, so the head will always fit neatly without you having to force it.

Do not overfill the head. Leave a small space between the tobacco and the foil or HMD, so that the smoke can flow well through the tobacco. Good packing and the right coals are crucial for the quality of your session.

Cleaning and maintenance

Silicone is very easy to clean. Rinse the head with warm water after each session. Are there burnt residues in the head? Then let it soak for a few minutes in warm water with a little dish soap and then wipe it away with a soft brush. No need to use aggressive cleaning agents. The head will last a long time if you simply rinse it after use and let it air dry. Do not put it in a closed box if it is still wet, as this promotes mold growth.

The right coals for this tobacco head

For an 8 cm diameter silicone phunnel head, it is best to use round or square natural coals of 25 mm or 26 mm. Coals that are too large generate too much heat and can damage the head. Good choices are Tom Coco or Black Coco. Do you want easier lighting? Then easy light coals are an option, although natural coals generally provide more consistent heat.

Always use a coal burner to light the coals properly. Then place them on the foil or in the HMD with hookah tongs. Start with two coals for a relaxed session and add a third if the heat drops.

Complete your set

A good tobacco head is the beginning, but a complete shisha session requires more. Choose the right shisha hose for a comfortable draw. Add a molasses catcher to keep the stem clean. And don't forget to choose a good shisha tobacco. At ShishaTabak, you'll find everything in one place, so your session is perfect from start to finish.
