The stem tenon is a delicate part connecting the stem to the shank or bowl of the pipe. To prevent breakage, certain precautions during maintenance and daily use are essential. When disassembling the pipe for cleaning, rotate the stem slowly and with uniform motion, avoiding abrupt pulling or forcing, since the tenon is fragile and vulnerable to stress-induced fractures. Additionally, keeping the tenon free from tobacco residue and tar buildup minimizes friction and eases disassembly. Regular use of proper cleaning tools and careful handling help preserve the tenon’s integrity. Finally, avoid exposing the pipe to excessive humidity or dryness, as fluctuations in temperature and moisture can affect material stability, potentially weakening the tenon and other pipe parts.<\/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-101546","faq-new","type-faq-new","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nHow to avoid breaking the stem tenon of a pipe? | Savinelli<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"To avoid breaking the stem tenon of your pipe, gently disassemble it by slowly and evenly twisting the stem.
