The pipe stem is a delicate component and must be handled with care to prevent damage. Before removal, ensure the pipe is completely cold, as heat can expand the materials and make the joint more fragile. To remove the stem, firmly hold the bowl with one hand and slowly rotate the stem counterclockwise, or in the most natural direction, while applying gentle traction. Avoid pulling straight out or with excessive force, as this can break or deform the stem or shank. If the stem is especially tight, you can try warming the area slightly with your hands to ease removal, but do not overdo it. Once detached, clean and store the stem carefully to maintain the pipe in excellent condition over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"page-faq-new.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false},"class_list":["post-101436","faq-new","type-faq-new","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nHow do you remove the pipe stem without breaking it? | Savinelli<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"To remove the pipe stem without risking damage, always do it when the pipe is cold and handle it gently.
