510 & 810 Drip Tips for Vaping Devices UK

What are drip tips?

A drip tip is the removable mouthpiece on your tank, pod or RDA. Swap it to change the feel of each puff, tweak airflow, or match your mod. Most tanks and RDAs accept either a 510 or 810 fitting; check your atomiser’s spec or the O-ring size before you buy. For a quick refresher on tank parts and fittings, see our Beginner’s Guide to Vape Tanks.

What are the key types?

• 510 vs 810: 510 tips are narrower and suit MTL or tighter RDL draws; 810s are wider for DTL airflow and bigger vapour.
• Bore & height: Short, wide bores feel airier; taller, narrower tips focus flavour.
• Materials: Delrin (POM) is light and stays cool; resin brings bold colours with a smooth feel; stainless steel is durable and precise. If you’re upgrading the whole setup, explore Vape Mods.

Choosing the right drip tips

• Size & fit: Confirm 510 or 810 and check O-ring placement.
• Draw preference: Narrower for tighter, flavour-focused pulls; wider for open airflow.
• Material feel: Delrin for a cooler touch, resin for comfort and colour, steel for a crisp, solid bite.
• Maintenance: Wipe the bore regularly; refresh O-rings if you notice looseness.

510 vs 810 picks

Want a tighter cigarette-like draw or something more open? 510 drip tips keep things narrow for MTL and RDL tanks, great when you want focused flavour and a snug fit. If you’re running a sub-ohm tank or RDA, an 810 wide-bore delivers extra airflow and a looser inhale.

Try a classic 510 shape like 510 Drip Tip Metal Base Long for precise, comfortable pulls, or go maximally airy with 810 Resin Drip Tip Wide for bigger vapour and a roomy mouthfeel.

Material matters

Different materials subtly change comfort and heat feel. Delrin (POM) is lightweight and helps stay cool on the lips. Resin adds a smooth tactile feel with eye-catching colours; it’s a favourite for everyday comfort. Stainless steel is ultra-robust with a crisp edge and premium look.

For an easy colour pop in a slim format, see 510 Resin Drip Tips. Prefer a wider DTL fit with a metal accent? 810 Metal Base Resin Drip Tips blend durability and style for modern tanks and RDAs.

Fit & airflow

A snug fit depends on good O-rings and the right base diameter. If your tip feels loose, refresh the O-rings or try a slightly different base design. Bore size also shapes the draw: wide bores breathe easier for DTL, while slimmer bores concentrate flavour for MTL.

Check contoured lips if you like a softer seal. For an 810 with bold styling and secure metal base, see 810 Resin Drip Tip Metal Base Cobra. Want a compact 510 with texture? 510 Cobra Drip Tips keep things neat yet comfortable.
