{"product_id":"vz-thick-silicone-hookah-hose","title":"VZ Hookah Thick Silicone Shisha Hose","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe VZ Thick Hose is what our Melbourne store team points towards when a customer wants a genuine airflow upgrade on a wide-draw hookah. It's 1.5 metres of dense matte-black food-grade silicone with an oversized inner bore — wider than the 12 mm channel on most silicone hoses — built in Russia by VZ Hookah for their precision stem builds. This is the tube only: bring your own mouthpiece and connector to match the wider diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOversized Bore\u003c\/strong\u003e · \u003cstrong\u003eFood-Grade Silicone\u003c\/strong\u003e · \u003cstrong\u003eMade in Russia\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVZ Hookah Thick Silicone Hose — 1.5 m Wide Bore, Matte Black\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy the Wide Bore Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe oversized inner bore is wider than the standard 12 mm on most silicone hoses — you feel it instantly on an open-draw hookah.

No mouthpiece, no connector, no adapters. Because the inner bore is wider than standard silicone hoses, confirm your hookah-side connector and mouthpiece will seat firmly inside the larger diameter before your first session. If your current hookah uses a standard-bore connector, you may need a wider adapter. If you're not sure, bring your connector into our Melbourne store and we'll check the fit for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinse under warm running water after every session.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor a deep clean, flush with warm water and bicarbonate of soda, then rinse thoroughly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHang loosely to air dry — avoid prolonged tight coiling while storing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplace every 4–6 months of regular use as silicone gradually picks up flavour compounds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVZ Hookah\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThick Silicone Hose (Tube Only)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFood-grade Silicone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~1.5 m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBore\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOversized (wider than standard 12 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatte Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRussia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x VZ Thick Silicone Hose (1.5 m, matte black)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNote: Mouthpiece, connectors, and adapters not included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill my existing connector fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaybe not — the bore is wider than standard.
