Herb Ripper SS XL Coarse Plate – Replacement Screen Plate for Convection Vaporizers
Coarser Grind, Better Airflow — Built for the SS XL Grinder
The Herb Ripper SS XL Coarse Plate is a precision-engineered, drop-in replacement screen plate designed exclusively for the SS XL grinder. Its wider hole pattern produces a chunkier, more open grind that allows hot air to circulate freely through your herb chamber — a significant advantage for convection and hybrid vaporizers where unrestricted airflow directly determines vapour quality and session consistency.
Key Features
- Wider hole pattern – produces a coarser, fluffier grind for improved airflow and reduced chamber compaction
- 316L stainless steel construction – food-grade, fully taste-neutral, and built for long-term durability
- Direct drop-in fit – installs into the SS XL grinder in seconds, no tools or modifications needed
- XL chamber-sized – handles larger quantities per pass at a coarser consistency, ideal for multi-session prep
Why Use a Coarse Plate with Your SS XL Grinder?
Convection vaporizers rely on hot air passing through loosely packed material to extract efficiently and evenly. A coarser grind reduces compaction inside the chamber, which leads to more consistent airflow, better flavour throughout the session, and less uneven extraction. The SS XL grinder's larger capacity makes this pairing especially practical — grind enough for multiple sessions in a single pass, all at the right consistency for your convection device.
Coarse Plate vs Standard Plate
The standard SS XL plate produces a medium grind suited to a wide range of vaporizers. The Coarse Plate is the stronger choice for convection-dominant devices such as the Arizer Solo 3, Mighty+, and Crafty+, where a less compacted load produces noticeably better airflow and more even draws. If you primarily use a conduction vaporizer such as the PAX 3 or DaVinci IQ2, the standard or fine plate will likely serve you better.
Compatibility
- Compatible with the Herb Ripper SS XL grinder only
- Not compatible with SS Classic models or earlier XL variants
- Check for the HR logo on the top cap to confirm you have a current-generation SS XL model
- Grinder sold separately
How to Install the SS XL Coarse Plate
Disassemble your SS XL grinder and lift out the existing screen plate from the grinder body. Press the Coarse Plate firmly into position — no tools required. The plate swaps back to standard or fine at any time, giving you complete flexibility over grind consistency to match whichever vaporizer you reach for.
