Lost My Ball Bearing


Recommended Posts

Ok I have a 2 hose hookah, and while cleaning it I managed to lose one of the ball bearing completely. So where can I get a new one, and is there a standard ball size for every hookah, or is it different for each one? I'm assuming I can just go to a hardware store like home depot and find one, but I can't say for sure.

hmmm, either check the hardware store or maybe a BB would work. I am unsure what size the bearing is though.

i used an airsoft bb once and it works great, very easy solution.

I'm gonna have to say put in an airsoft BB. I tried this once after losing a ball bearing, and have since replaced the ball bearings in all my hookahs with airsoft BBs. They're the perfect size and never gum up or stick. And you won't even notice them when clearing your hookah.

WAIT A SEC!!! today i was cleaning my hookah and this little bb thing came out. what is it? i didn't think much of it! i just threw it in my bag! What does it do and where do i put it?!?!


it is essential for the blow off valve to work. put it back where you found it. Your hookah isn't going to hit without it either
