Pizzo (pipe) A pizzo [1] – also known as an pilo, oil burner, bubble, tweak pipe, meth pipe, gack pipe, crank pipe, pookie pipe, chicken bone, or ice pipe – is a glass pipe which consists of a tube connected to a spherical bulb with a small opening on top designed for freebasing methamphetamine or crack cocaine as well as other drugs.
A pizzo [1] – also known as an pilo, oil burner, bubble, tweak pipe, meth pipe, gack pipe, crank pipe, crack pipe, pookie pipe, chicken bone, or ice pipe – AKA “Billy” – is a glass pipe which consists of a tube connected to a spherical bulb with a small opening on top designed for smoking methamphetamine or freebasing crack cocaine as well as other drugs.
Crack users tend to smoke the drug because that has a higher bioavailability than other routes typically used for drugs of abuse, such as insufflation. Crack has a melting point of around 90 °C (194 °F), [1] and the smoke does not remain potent for long. Therefore, crack pipes are generally very short, to minimize the time between evaporating ...
Stress corrosion cracking ( SCC) is the growth of crack formation in a corrosive environment. It can lead to unexpected and sudden failure of normally ductile metal alloys subjected to a tensile stress, especially at elevated temperature. SCC is highly chemically specific in that certain alloys are likely to undergo SCC only when exposed to a ...
A photo of a crack pipe a Columbus couple reported finding Tuesday in a bag with a breakfast order from the McDonald's restaurant at 619 Harrisburg Pike at West Mound Street in Columbus.
v. t. e. Hydrogen embrittlement ( HE ), also known as hydrogen-assisted cracking or hydrogen-induced cracking ( HIC ), is a reduction in the ductility of a metal due to absorbed hydrogen. Hydrogen atoms are small and can permeate solid metals. Once absorbed, hydrogen lowers the stress required for cracks in the metal to initiate and propagate ...
Oct. 13—It happened first at the news conference in front of the duck pond that had been drained to search for a gun used in a shooting. "Janet Mills is using taxpayer money to send people to ...
The configuration of the typical opium pipe consists of a long stem, a ceramic pipe-bowl, and a metal fitting, known as the "saddle", through which the pipe-bowl plugs into the pipe-stem. The pipe-bowl must be detachable from the stem due to the necessity to remove the bowl and scrape its insides clean of opium ash after several pipes have been ...
