Essentials hammer tongs — 22 cm stainless steel control for safer coal handling
Prep coals the easy way. Our Essentials Hammer Tongs are built from premium stainless steel with a flat hammer head, so you can split cubes cleanly and grip hot coals with confidence. Whether you call it shisha, hookah, nargile or argile, this no-nonsense tool makes every session smoother.
Why it stands out
- Built-in hammer: Crack 26–28 mm cubes or flats in seconds for fast heat control.
- Safe reach: 22 cm length keeps hands comfortably clear of the heat.
- Secure control: Wide 4.5 cm jaws offer a steady, confident grip.
- Made to last: Stainless steel resists warping and rust for daily use.
- Everyday essential: Simple, reliable and lounge-ready — great for beginners too.
Compatibility
- Best with coconut charcoal cubes or flats (26–28 mm). See Coconut Charcoal.
- Use on a heat-resistant tray or mat when splitting coals.
Setup & tips
- Break coals on a heat-resistant surface — never on glass or ceramic.
- Let coals fully light before splitting for cleaner breaks and less ash.
- Allow tongs to cool before rinsing; hand-dry to prevent water spots.
Performance
Balanced leverage at the hinge gives clean breaks with minimal force, while the wide jaws keep hold of cubes without slipping — ideal for precise heat placement and safer ash management.
Maintenance & care
- Hand wash with mild detergent; dry immediately to preserve the finish.
- Avoid harsh scourers that can mark stainless steel.
- Do not quench hot metal under cold water to prevent thermal shock.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Fix |
|---|---|
| Harsh taste | Reduce heat; tap off ash; split larger cubes to lower heat load. |
| Thin clouds | Fully light coals; add a 3rd 26 mm cube after 5 min; check airflow seals. |
| Ash mess | Split and tap coals over a tray; purge softly to avoid blowing ash. |
