Replacement Glasses

Vape tanks are built to handle the heat — but even the best tanks can suffer knocks, drops, or cracks. That’s where replacement glass comes in. Whether your current tank glass has cracked, chipped, or you simply want to keep a spare handy, replacement glass allows you to extend the life of your vape kit without having to replace the entire tank.

With more UK vapers now switching from disposables to reusable vape kits, keeping tanks in good condition is more important than ever — and replacement glass is a simple, cost-effective solution.

What Is Vape Tank Replacement Glass?

Vape tank replacement glass is a spare glass section specifically designed to fit a particular vape tank model. It forms the reservoir that holds your e-liquid, encased by the tank’s metal frame.

Replacement glass is usually made from:

  • Pyrex or toughened borosilicate glass (heat and impact-resistant)
  • Available in straight or bubble styles (depending on capacity and device)

Why You Might Need a Replacement Glass

  • 💥 Accidental Drops or Cracks
    Glass is strong but not indestructible — especially if dropped on hard surfaces.
  • 🔄 Upgrade or Swap Style
    Want a slimmer or larger e-liquid capacity? Swap between straight and bubble glass.
  • 🧼 Wear and Tear Over Time
    Heavy use, temperature changes, and cleaning can cause micro-fractures or fogging.
  • 🔧 Routine Maintenance
    Having spare glass makes maintenance easier and avoids downtime.

Types of Vape Tank Glass

1. Straight Glass

  • Slim, sleek look
  • Holds less e-liquid (typically 2ml)
  • Common in TPD-compliant tanks
  • Flatter profile fits easily in pockets

Best for: Vapers who prefer a compact, minimalist design or are using tanks where size matters.


2. Bubble Glass

  • Bulged shape for extra capacity
  • Holds 4ml–8ml depending on tank
  • Reduces refill frequency
  • Slightly wider profile

Best for: Sub-ohm vapers and those who want more vape time between refills.
