Stainless Mesh Insert for Egyptian Bowls – Stops Leaf Drop

TPW screen insert — stainless mesh for Egyptian bowls, cleaner draws with slimmer packs

Drop-in mesh insert for traditional Egyptian (multi-hole) bowls. The fine, food-grade stainless screen stops stray leaf from falling through the holes or down the stem, keeping your base clearer and flavour cleaner. Its slight lift creates a buffer above the bowl floor so you can pack a little less tobacco while keeping taste and heat response steady.

What sets it apart

• Cleaner water & flavour because the mesh blocks strands from the multi-hole floor.
• Trimmer, efficient packs from the raised profile that lifts tobacco off the base.
• Steadier airflow with holes kept clear for an even draw through the session.
• Reusable stainless build that rinses quickly and resists warping.

Fit & compatibility

Optimised for traditional Egyptian multi-hole bowls only. Not for phunnel/funnel designs. Explore compatible options in our Bowls and pair with tools from Accessories.

How to dial it in

• Place the mesh flat over the holes inside an empty bowl.
• Fluff-pack tobacco lightly above the screen; avoid pressing leaf into the mesh.
• Cover with foil or use your HMD as normal; manage heat as you usually would.

Craft & performance

• Food-grade stainless steel with smooth, de-burred edges for easy handling.
• Mesh density tuned to catch small strands without choking airflow.
• Durable, reusable alternative to makeshift filters.

Care & upkeep

• Tap off ash, rinse warm after use, and dry thoroughly.
• Avoid harsh abrasives to keep the smooth finish.

Quick fixes

• Draw feels tight → Lighten the pack or check the screen isn’t pressed into the holes.
• Thin flavour → Add a little more leaf or adjust coal placement/heat.

In simple terms: what it is, why it helps, how it works

This is a small stainless screen that sits inside an Egyptian bowl. It stops leaf falling through the holes, so less gunk reaches your stem and base. Because it lifts the tobacco slightly, you can use a leaner pack that still tastes full. Air stays moving evenly, so the session feels smoother and easier to manage.
