What Sort of Bong will Fit my Arizer Solo 3 WPA 14mm Frosted Adapter?

Your Arizer Solo 3 WPA (Water Pipe Adapter) with a 14mm frosted joint is designed to connect neatly into any bong or bubbler that has a 14mm female joint. Here’s what that means in practice, what to look out for, and which bong styles work best.

Understanding Joint Sizes

In glassware, the “joint” is where pieces connect. Joints come in different diameters, most commonly 10mm, 14mm, and 18mm. They also come in male and female types. Your Arizer Solo 3 WPA is a 14mm male joint, which means it’s designed to fit into a 14mm female joint on your bong or bubbler.

Simple rule: male plugs into female. If your bong has a 14mm female joint, your WPA will slide in securely. If your bong has an 18mm joint, you’ll need a 14→18mm adapter. If it has a male joint, it won’t fit without additional adapters.

What to Look for in a Bong

  • Stable base: The Solo 3 is a fairly heavy device. Choose a bong with a wide, stable base (like a beaker or round-bottom) to avoid tipping.
  • Upright joint placement: Look for bongs where the 14mm female joint points straight up. Angled or side-mounted joints can make the Solo 3 sit awkwardly or tip the piece.
  • Recessed joint designs: A bong with a recessed or center-mounted joint reduces leverage and keeps your setup more secure.
  • Joint size compatibility: Stick with 14mm female joints for a direct fit. Use a reducer or expander only if you want to pair with 10mm or 18mm bongs.

Good Bong Styles for the Solo 3 WPA

While you can technically use any 14mm female bong, some styles are much better suited for stability and smooth performance:

  • Beaker bongs: Wide base for stability, perfect for heavier devices like the Solo 3.
  • Small bubblers: Compact and portable, great for travel as long as the joint is upright.
  • Recycler bongs: Excellent for smoother, water-cooled vapor — just make sure the joint is well positioned.
  • Straight tubes with a sturdy base: Simple and effective if they have a 14mm female joint at the right angle.

Adapters You Might Need

  • 14→18mm adapter: Lets your 14mm WPA fit into larger 18mm female joints.
  • 14→10mm adapter: Useful if you want to connect to smaller bubblers or mini rigs.

Final Takeaway

Your Arizer Solo 3 WPA with a 14mm frosted adapter will fit perfectly into any bong with a 14mm female joint. For the best experience, look for stable beaker-style bongs, upright bubblers, or recyclers with well-positioned joints. Avoid angled or side-mounted joints, and use adapters if you want to connect with other joint sizes.
