An ash catcher is a structure that removes ash from the smoke stream before it reaches the mouthpiece. Some ash catchers are built into a piece, like the inverted ash catcher mouthpiece on many GRAV® hand pipes. Most ash catchers are separate accessories, like the GRAV® phoenix ash catcher, which can be paired with water pipes. Accessory ash catchers screen out ash and tar before they enter the water pipe, and have the added benefit of being easily cleaned.
