Which charcoal tray will fit my hookah?
Due to the wide variety of sizes and styles when it comes to both hookahs and trays, not all trays will be compatible with all hookahs. You will need to make sure the measurement of the inner diameter, as well as the total diameter of the tray, is compatible with your hookah. Egyptian hookahs, like Khalil Mamoons, typically use wider stamped trays with a larger hole in the middle, while many modern brands feature trays with a smaller, more precise inner diameter. To check if your hookah is compatible with a certain coal tray, check the tray's description for exact measurements or reach out to our knowledgeable customer service team for assistance.
