Description

The AO valve ball Polyamide 12 mm is a replacement ball for the blow-off valve of your hookah. The pack contains 5 pieces, each 12 mm in diameter, made of polyamide.

What the ball does in the blow-off valve

The ball sits on the valve seat in the blow-off valve. When you draw on the hose, the vacuum pulls it onto the rim and the valve closes. When you blow into the hose, it lifts and stale smoke can escape from the base.

Material: Polyamide

Polyamide is very light and can be cleaned under running water. A polyamide ball is lighter than a stainless steel ball.

The right size

The size you need depends on the valve seat of your hookah. Measure the old ball with a ruler at its widest point, or the opening if there is no ball left. A ball that is too small slips through the valve seat. This ball is 12 mm.

Rinsing and changing the ball

Rinse the ball whenever you take the hookah apart. A film on the ball can keep it off the rim, and then the valve does not close properly. The ball must stay free to move in its seat. After rinsing and drying, you can put it back in.

How to change the ball

  1. Take the hookah apart and expose the blow-off valve.
  2. Remove the old ball and measure it.
  3. Insert the new ball with the matching diameter into the valve seat.
  4. Check that the ball moves freely in its seat.

Frequently asked questions

How do I notice that the ball is missing?

Air is drawn in from outside, the draw feels very light and no pressure builds up in the base.

How many balls do I need?

One in the blow-off valve. If you smoke with more than one hose, every hose port in use also needs one. With 5 pieces you have spares.

Does the ball fit my hookah?

That depends on the valve seat. The item does not state a fit for specific hookahs, so measure before you buy.
