Pipes with 6mm filters

Why choose a pipe with a 6mm filter?

Pipes equipped with a 6mm filter attract many smokers because they produce a smoother smoke, which naturally makes the experience more enjoyable.

The 6mm filter offers excellent absorption of condensation and impurities, making the smoking experience much more pleasant.

Advantages of a 6mm pipe filter:

Smoking a pipe equipped with a 6mm filter offers several benefits for the smoker. Thanks to their absorbent properties, these filters provide:

• A smoother smoke: the filter regulates moisture and prevents "gurgling" sounds.
• Better retention of impurities: it blocks part of the tar.

What types of 6mm filters are available?

There are several types of filters compatible with 6mm pipes. The most popular are balsa filters, a naturally very porous wood that absorbs moisture like a sponge without altering the taste of the tobacco. This system is, in fact, a specialty of the famous Italian brand Savinelli. However, there are also 6mm activated charcoal filters. On our website, we have chosen to offer those from the Vauen brand.

Is it possible to smoke a 6mm pipe without its filter?

Absolutely! If you own a pipe with a 6mm filter, you are not required to use a filter every time. You can perfectly smoke without it if you prefer a more direct draw.

How do I change the 6mm filter in my pipe?

Knowing how to replace the filter is essential to maintaining an optimal smoking experience. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Wait until your pipe has completely cooled down. Never remove the stem while it is still hot, as this may damage the tenon or the shank.
2. Carefully remove the stem by turning it gently in the same direction.
3. Take out the used 6mm filter and insert a new one.

We recommend changing your 6mm filter every 2 to 3 smokes at most. The more regularly you replace it, the more effective it remains. Some smokers even prefer to replace it with each new smoking session.
