made it far easier to hold in my teeth whilst working at the computer. Since I like to smoke when I am writing I could not be happier. I am not sure if it will work with a Peterson P- lip but I will give that a try. I would recommend these wholeheartedly to anyone who smokes and works with one's hands at the same time. Read Less
These Rubber bits

Just got these today, put 1 on my favorite pipe and it works like a charm. Now, I wear dentures and couldn't grip my pipe to well, but now, it's a snap, like when I had real teeth, and, these work lots better than rubber bands,which I used to use.

I often clench, and this thing makes the clenching more comfortable and relieves me from the fear of leaving tooth marks on an expensive pipe. Obviously, it tastes of rubber initially so slightly washing it before first use may help.

canite, I would chomp through those in no time. I quit pipe smoking altogether about 20 years ago but I recently picked up my pipes again as I realized I was missing something that the occasional cigar didn't even come close to providing. Now that I have gotten older and wiser and my jaws seem to have lost some of their bite strength, I started using this product and so far I'm pleased. I've gotten used to the texture and they are pretty comfortable. They sure as hell beat having a pipe with a slippery acrylic stem sliding around between your teeth. Now most of my pipes wear this product and so far so good. What the long term prognosis will be in terms of durability remains to be seen but they are cheap as dirt so who cares. Read Less

for a while, but I didn't like having to heat them on and I had to replace the tubing every month-or-so from my teeth wearing a hole in them. Plus, these are much cheaper than tubing. Win-win. So, now I've totally switched to these rubber bits. I'm a clencher and I do a large percentage of my smoking while driving and these have made life so much easier. I ended up buying them for all my pipes which helps protect the stems from chatter, and every new pipe I buy gets one. I'm not sure how long they last as I haven't had to replace one yet; once-a-year, maybe? I don't know. The point is they last a long while. Try them and see. I'm a softy convert, you may just like them too. UPDATE: One thing I've noticed is that these work best if slid on past the button and not left over the button as the picture shows. It's a lot less intrusive and more natural feeling on the pipe that way. For those that are wondering, these things stretch pretty far. I've been able to get them to fit everything from a Missouri Meerschaum Danish bit to a Savinelli 320 stem. Hope this helps. WARNING: I need to add a warning about using these with vulcanite/Ebonite stems. The softy bit completely blocks out sunlight. So while the rest of the exposed stem oxidizes, the portion under the bit wont. This can create a nightmare when trying to restore a stem back to it's original solid black luster. So while I stand by my review, I would not recommend them for vulcanized rubber stems. Most of my pipes have acrylic stems so I didn't know.

great smoker with out costly repairs or replacements. Yes, they are rubber with a rubber taste, but if you wash with unscented dish soap before use, and wipe down with ethanol after each smoke, the rubber smell and taste diminishes after a few bowls. As long as you keep your tongue off it, it's not noticable at all. Read Less
