VZ Stainless Big Hookah – One-Breath Purge, Clamp-Lock Base

VZ Stainless Steel hookah — 60 cm AISI 304 build with one-breath purge

What it is, why it helps, how it works, and why to choose it. This is VZ’s full-size stainless hookah, handmade in Russia from AISI 304 steel for long-term durability. The Big is tuned for a classic, slightly denser draw and uses VZ’s hallmark blowdown purge that clears the vase in a single breath, keeping flavour consistent and sessions smooth. Its clamp-lock base mount and non-folding shaft create a rock-solid feel that’s easy to clean and maintain.

What sets it apart

• One-breath purge behaviour because of VZ’s unique blowdown valve design that rapidly clears the vase.
• Stable, leak-free seal with clamp-lock base attachment on a non-folding, welded shaft.
• Built to last with AISI 304 stainless steel throughout for corrosion resistance and easy upkeep.
• Lounge-friendly height (~60 cm) for comfortable hose angle and steady draw.
• Removable diffuser included for quieter bubbling and smoother pull when desired.

Fit & compatibility

• Hose fit: accepts standard silicone hoses (common 10–12 mm ID).
• Base mount: clamp-lock system for a tight, wobble-free connection.

How to dial it in

• Water level: cover the diffuser by 10–15 mm for balanced resistance and quieter operation.
• Purge: perform one long, steady exhale through the hose to fully clear the vase between pulls.
• Pack & heat: pair with a quality bowl and consistent 26 mm cubes or a trusted HMD for even heat management.

Craft & performance

The Big delivers a classic VZ profile: a weighty, responsive airway with clean flavour transfer, fast purge recovery, and a confident, “hardcore” industrial aesthetic. The welded stainless construction keeps tolerances tight; the diffuser calms turbulence for dense, flavour-forward clouds.

Care & upkeep

• Rinse the stem and diffuser after each session; dry thoroughly to prevent water spots.
• Use non-abrasive brushes and mild detergent only; avoid harsh alkalis.
• Lightly grease grommets if needed to maintain an airtight seal.
