Regardless of what material they are made of, bong and pipe screens all serve the same purpose. But there is a little bit difference in their usage. Using a mesh screen is pretty easy. Press a screen into your hand pipe or bong’s bowl until it comes into a shape like the bowl. On the other hand, glass and ceramic screens can merely be dropped into the bowl and be good to go. Once you place your pipe screen, you can put your tobacco directly into the screen and light it as normal.
