Essentials 22 cm Stainless Shisha Tongs with Built-In Hammer

Essentials hammer-style tongs — 22 cm stainless with 4.5 cm grip for faster, safer coal control

We designed these long, stainless-steel tongs to make coal prep fast and confident. At 22 cm with a broad 4.5 cm gripping face, the integrated hammer head lets you split denser coals into session-ready pieces while keeping hands clear of heat. Stainless construction resists warping and wipes clean after use.

What sets it apart

• Quicker prep with built-in hammer head — tap to split dense cubes cleanly so heat ramps evenly.
• 22 cm reach for safer handling — keeps fingers clear of burners and hot trays.
• 4.5 cm grip width — steadies cubes and flats for precise placement around the bowl.
• Stainless body — durable, heat-ready and easy to wipe down after sessions.

In simple terms: what, why, how — and why get one

What it is: long hookah tongs with a mini hammer built into the end.

Why it helps: extra reach and a wider grip mean steadier, safer coal handling; the hammer saves time when you need smaller pieces.

How it works: place a coal on a heat-safe surface and tap the hammer end to split; use the wide jaws to hold and set cubes or flats around the rim.

Why choose it: stainless build that resists warping, 22 cm length to keep hands away from heat, and a broader grip for better control. Explore more Essentials tools here: Essentials collection.

How to dial it in

• Breaking: set a coal on a heat-safe surface (tray/tile) and start with light taps; add force only as needed.
• Placement: grip near the tips for control; place coals at the rim to avoid hot spots.
• Safety: only handle fully lit, ashed-over coals; keep a heat-proof tray nearby.

Care & upkeep

• Wipe with a damp cloth after sessions; dry fully to prevent water marks.
• Avoid harsh abrasives to keep the finish smooth.
