Great fit. There seems to be some size variation but still pretty close. I just wish they came in a larger pack as I lose them regularly.
Fit perfectly in the stems I ordered! No more herb bits in the oven, will be buying more
Great idea love them,when are you getting more 2mm ones in?
I love these things! They really help with the top of the bowl burn that's common with all arizer vapes. Bad news, only one of three has survived. The other two chipped (I AM a clumsy klutz) and couldn't keep using them.
As per the title, these work excellently in my few, surviving, First Party Arizer Stems. With the Glacier Stems I received, they were too wide and I was risking glass-to-glass contact, making retrieval difficult under fear of either the backspacer, or the stem itself, breaking. Will still highly recommend however!! I received the 2, 3, and 5mm spacers.

It keeps a small gap between your load and the heating element, which helps prevent combustion and scorching.
2mm is our most popular height. Taller spacers make a bigger gap. If you're not sure, a mixed pack lets you try them. See 2mm vs 5mm vs 10mm spacers.
Yes. It's made for the whole Arizer Solo and Air series: Solo, Solo 2, Solo 2 MAX, Solo 3, Solo 3 V2.0, Air, Air 2, Air MAX and Air SE. See the full list of models.
