A component used in bongs or dab rigs to provide additional filtration and cooling of the smoke or vapor. By forcing the smoke through a series of small holes or slits, percolators help diffuse the smoke, breaking it into smaller bubbles. This increases the surface area exposed to water, leading to a smoother, cooler, and cleaner hit, reducing the harshness of the smoke.
