The original brass pipe we all know and love, our Proto Pipe® Classic was designed by Phil Jergenson in the late 60’s. It features permanent screen holes, a lid to snuff your bowl out, and a removable poker, stash pod, and tar trap. The address stamped into the stash pod hole and the PP stamped on the lid ensure that your Proto Pipe is authentic.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
To care for a Proto Pipe, regular maintenance is essential for longevity and smooth performance. Depending on usage, occasional spot cleaning or a thorough weekly cleaning will help prevent excessive buildup. Cleaning while the resin is still soft is much easier than waiting for it to harden. Use a pipe cleaner, isopropyl alcohol, and Q-tips to remove residue from the bowl, chamber, and mouthpiece. Disassemble the removable components, soak them in rubbing alcohol, and wipe out the tubes and bowl for a deeper clean. After cleaning, thoroughly rinse all parts with hot water to remove any remaining residue. Keeping your Proto Pipe well-maintained not only enhances performance but also preserves its classic look and function.

The Poker:
The poker is the key component of the Proto Pipe, securing both the stash tube and tar trap in place. If the poker becomes loose, gently push the collar on the stash tube upward to create tension. This tension holds the poker securely, preventing it from falling out and ensuring the pipe stays properly assembled. Keeping the poker snug ensures smooth functionality and easy maintenance.

I've had the same Proto for 33 years. How many pieces have you gone through. It's been everywhere and I mean that.
I've replaced 1 poker, hung off a cliff to save the second one. 1 stash tube, bruise left a hell of a mark, but weld broke.
I can say, I'll never buy another pipe.
No duscount no pipe. Bummer!!
In regards to the top being lose..
Use a drop of high strength lock tight thread locker, can use the high temp kind to make sure but that will fix yur problem
Best money I ever spent
Nice clean machining on bowl, which is more than deep enough for me. Perfect size. Great draw. Everything about this feels nice. Nothing is loose or cheap feeling. From the smooth fitment of the poker (same diameter as the tube it slides into and prevents storage from loosening which I appreciate small details like that) and the storage tube to the turning of the cap. This thing was ridiculously well planned out, designed and manufactured. Tired of accidentally breaking glass pieces so I went with something tried and true. Hope to have this for the next decade or two. Thanks for making a great product.
