Nice Drip Tips must be like Nice Sun Glasses...
Hit the ground...step on them- not so nice anymore !

Stainless Steel- or cheap plastic= lifetime !
I use primarily pyrex glass drip tips (and IBTanked pyrex glass cartotanks). The glass tips feel the best on my lips. I'm relatively rough on my mods, they occassionally take a rough drop onto the ground. I've not broken one yet in a few months of use.

I will say, the two Trippy Tips that I own appear to be thinner glass, they look more fragile than the Sagewood and Hot Vapes glass tips that I own.

I haven't broken one yet since the only ones I use are the cheap plastic ones that come with my tank. Any advantages with using a glass vs. plastic?

One factor, of course, is how pretty that are, but another important one is drip tips made of acrylic or Delrin can melt when exposed to certain liquids. I like "tank cracking" flavors, so most of my tips are glass, stainless steel, ceramic and aluminum.
