RAW Black Rolling Tips — Natural Hemp Filter Tips
RAW Black Rolling Tips are unbleached hemp fibre filter tips that give your roll a sturdy, smooth mouthpiece without adding any taste of their own. Each pocket-sized booklet holds 50 tips, pre-cut and ready to fold. If you've ever fumbled with torn card or flimsy roach material that collapses the moment it gets damp, these solve that problem in about three seconds flat.

Rolling tips without papers is like a frame without a canvas. Pair these with RAW Black King Size Slim rolling papers for the thinnest, slowest-burning combo RAW makes. If you prefer cones, RAW Black pre-rolled cones take the rolling out of the equation entirely — the tip is already built in.
Why RAW Black Tips Beat Random Roach Card
We've sold rolling accessories since 1999, and the single most underrated upgrade anyone can make is switching from ripped-up train tickets to proper filter tips. The difference is immediate: better airflow, no soggy end, and nothing flaking into your mouth on the last few draws.
RAW Black tips are made from natural hemp fibres — the same plant family as the papers themselves. They're unbleached, so there's no chlorine taste and no chemical whitening agents. The texture is slightly rougher than standard card, which actually works in your favour: once you fold a tip and roll it into a cylinder, the friction holds the spiral in place. It doesn't unravel in your pocket or spring open inside the paper.
The one honest limitation: these are flat tips, not pre-rolled. If you've never folded a W-shape or accordion tip before, the first couple might look a bit rough. By the fifth one, you'll have it down. And because the booklet holds 50, you've got plenty of practice material. At this price point, there's no reason to keep tearing up cereal boxes.
How RAW Black Compares to RAW Classic Tips
RAW makes tips across several lines, and the difference between Black and Classic comes down to material weight and rigidity. The Black line uses a slightly thinner, more refined hemp fibre that still holds its shape when wet. Classic tips are fractionally thicker — they feel stiffer out of the booklet but don't roll quite as tightly. If you like a slim, compact filter, go Black. If you prefer a chunkier roach that fills more of the paper's diameter, Classic works better. Both are unbleached and free from added dyes or chalk.
| Feature | RAW Black Tips | RAW Classic Tips |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Natural hemp fibre (thinner) | Natural hemp fibre (thicker) |
| Tips per booklet | 50 | 50 |
| Wet rigidity | Strong — stays firm | Good — slightly softer when damp |
| Roll tightness | Rolls into a slim, compact cylinder | Produces a slightly wider cylinder |
| Bleaching | None | None |
| Best paired with | RAW Black papers (ultra-thin) | RAW Classic papers (standard weight) |
How to Fold and Roll a RAW Black Tip
- Tear one tip cleanly from the booklet along the perforation. Each strip measures roughly 55mm long — enough for a standard-width filter.
- Starting at one short end, fold about 5mm of the strip back on itself. Then fold it back the other way, creating a small W or M shape. Three to four folds is the sweet spot — this creates the inner structure that stops material pulling through.
- Take the remaining unfolded length and wrap it tightly around the folded section, rolling it into a cylinder. The hemp fibre's natural grip keeps it from springing open.
- Place the finished tip at one end of your rolling paper before you add your material. Having the tip in place from the start makes rolling significantly easier — it gives the paper something rigid to wrap around.
- Roll as normal. The tip should sit flush with the end of the paper. If it sticks out slightly, give it a gentle push inward with your little finger.
