Most pre-filled oil cartridges on the market are “510 thread.” This refers to the way it physically connects to your vape battery, and most vape pens are made to be compatible with 510 thread cartridges. This oil is extracted from the cannabis plant and often consists of a range of cannabinoids and terpenes for flavor. These are often single-use cartridges that you can buy from the dispensary already loaded with cannabis oil. Vape pens are a simple battery device on which to attach a 510 thread, pre-filled oil cartridge. Then, reattach the atomizer, and dab away! The top of the atomizer may have to be removed to access the coil.

The tip heats up so no wax will stick to the tool, it all slides cleanly off into the banger. This has been a pet peeve of ours for years, so we created the Ooze Hot Knife! This is a medical-grade ceramic dab tip that screws right onto the top of your Ooze pen. The dabbing tool should be a heat-resistant and non-stick material so it’s easy to slide your wax off it.Ĭoncentrates are known for being tricky to pick up and handle neatly. This makes dab pens great for the hands-on stoner who prefers raw material and finds the entire smoking process meditative. First, use a dabbing tool to take a bit of wax out of the container and into the atomizer. Preparation with a wax vape pen is a bit more of a process than the one for concentrates. The atomizer is necessary only for dab vape pens, since this is where the wax or concentrate is loaded before reattaching it to the battery. It converts the power from the battery into heat, which vaporizes the wax in the atomizer. The heating coil is responsible for carrying out the first step of vaporization in your device.

All wax pens are technically vape pens because of the literal vaporization that occurs to the material in the device. Dab vape pens include a heating coil and atomizer to vaporize the thicker consistency of wax.
