RAW 2-Way Hemp Plastic Roller
The RAW 2-Way Hemp Plastic Roller is a pocket-sized joint rolling machine that produces two different joint thicknesses from a single device. Flick the switch on the side and toggle between a standard skinny roll and a wider, fatter one — no need to buy two separate rollers. Available in 70mm, 79mm, and 110mm sizes to match your preferred paper length, this is the fastest route from loose herb to a tightly packed, evenly rolled joint.
Which Size Do You Need?
The size refers to the width of the rolling paper the machine accepts — not the diameter of the joint. Match it to whatever papers you already use.
| Size | SKU | Best Paired With |
|---|---|---|
| 70mm | HS1403 | Single-wide papers (standard short papers) |
| 79mm | HS1404 | 1 1/4 size papers — the most common rolling paper size |
| 110mm | HS1405 | King Size papers for longer sessions or sharing |
Not sure? The 79mm is the best all-rounder. Most rolling papers you'll find in a shop are 1 1/4 size, and the 79mm roller handles those without a thought. If you tend to roll king size, grab the 110mm.
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Brand | RAW |
| Material | Hemp plastic |
| Roll options | Standard (skinny) and wide (fat) |
| Available sizes | 70mm / 79mm / 110mm |
| Toggle mechanism | Switch on left end of roller |
| Portable | Yes — fits in a pocket or pouch |
| Papers included | No — sold separately |
Complete your setup with RAW Classic or RAW Organic Hemp rolling papers in the matching size. If you're using the 110mm roller, a pack of RAW King Size Slim papers is the obvious pairing. A RAW pre-rolled tip booklet also helps — roll a filter tip into the end of the machine before you start and you'll get a finished joint with a built-in crutch, ready to light.
Why a Joint Roller Is Worth Having Around
Hand-rolling is a skill, and like any skill, some days you nail it and some days you don't. Maybe your fingers are cold. Maybe you're outdoors and the wind keeps catching your paper. Maybe you've just never been able to get a tight, even roll and you're tired of joints that canoe down one side or fall apart halfway through. A rolling machine takes the guesswork out entirely.
The RAW 2-Way Hemp Plastic Roller specifically solves the problem of needing different joint sizes. We've seen people buy a standard roller, then realise they want something wider for weekends or social settings, and end up buying a second one. With the 2-way toggle, you get both in one unit. The switch on the left end clicks between standard and wide — it's a physical mechanism, not something that'll wear out after a few uses. The hemp plastic body has a slightly textured, matte feel to it. It's lightweight (noticeably lighter than a metal roller) but doesn't feel flimsy. The rolling pins grip well and turn smoothly.
One honest note: if you've never used a rolling machine before, the first couple of attempts might produce loose or uneven joints while you figure out how much herb to load. Don't overstuff it — that's the number one mistake we see. A loosely filled roller produces a better joint than a packed-to-bursting one, because the pins need room to compress and shape the herb evenly. After 3 or 4 rolls, you'll have the feel for it and every joint will come out consistent.
How to Use the RAW 2-Way Hemp Plastic Roller
- Set your preferred width by toggling the switch on the left end of the roller. One position gives you a standard (skinny) joint, the other a wide (fat) joint. You'll feel it click into place.
- Open the roller by lifting the front rolling pin up and towards you. The two pins should separate, exposing the bed of the roller.
- Spread your ground herb evenly across the length of the roller. Don't mound it in the centre — distribute it so the joint packs evenly from end to end. If you're using a filter tip, place it at one end now.
- Close the roller by pressing the two rolling pins back together. They should sit snugly against each other with the herb sandwiched between them.
- Using your thumbs on the front rolling pin, give it one complete turn towards you. This settles and compresses the herb into a cylindrical shape.
- Slide a rolling paper into the front of the roller with the gummed (sticky) edge facing you and pointing upwards. Feed it in gently — the rolling pins will grip the paper and start to pull it through.
- Continue rolling with your thumbs. Just before the gummed edge disappears into the roller, lick or moisten it so it seals as it wraps around.
- Open the roller. Your finished joint should be sitting there, evenly packed and sealed. Give it a gentle tap on a table to settle the herb towards the tip, twist the open end, and you're done.
From Our Counter
We've sold rolling machines since the early 2000s, and the questions are always the same: "Will it work with my papers?" and "How tight does it roll?" The answer to the first one is yes, as long as you match the roller size to your paper size — 70mm for single-wide, 79mm for 1 1/4, 110mm for king size. The answer to the second is: tight enough that you won't need to repack or re-roll, but not so tight that airflow is restricted. RAW has been making rolling accessories for long enough that the pin spacing and tension are dialled in properly.
Compared to a metal roller, the hemp plastic version is quieter (no metallic clicking), lighter in your pocket, and — frankly — less likely to scratch up whatever else is in your bag. The trade-off is that metal rollers tend to last a bit longer under heavy daily use. For most people rolling a few times a week, the hemp plastic holds up without any issue. If you're rolling 10+ joints a day for an extended period, you might eventually notice wear on the pin surface, but that's a pretty extreme use case.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 2-way switch actually do?
It adjusts the gap between the rolling pins. In the standard position, the pins sit closer together and produce a thinner joint. In the wide position, the gap increases so you can pack more herb in and roll a fatter joint. Same machine, two diameters.
Can I use this roller with filter tips?
Yes. Place a pre-rolled filter tip at one end of the roller before you close it and add your paper. The roller will wrap the paper around both the herb and the tip in one go. RAW pre-rolled tips fit the 79mm and 110mm sizes particularly well.
Which size should I buy if I only use one paper type?
Match the roller to your paper width. The 79mm fits 1 1/4 papers, which are the most widely used size. If you only smoke king size, get the 110mm. The 70mm is specifically for single-wide (short) papers.
Is hemp plastic durable?
It's solid enough for regular use. Hemp plastic is lighter than traditional plastic and has a slightly more textured feel. It won't shatter if you drop it, though it can crack under serious force — don't sit on it. For normal pocket carry and daily rolling, it holds up well.
Why does my joint come out loose or uneven?
You're likely overfilling the roller or not distributing the herb evenly before closing it. Use less herb than you think you need, spread it flat across the full length, and give the front pin a full rotation before inserting the paper. That settling step makes a big difference.
How do I clean the roller?
Brush out any leftover herb with a dry toothbrush or small paintbrush after each session. If residue builds up on the rolling pins, wipe them with a slightly damp cloth. Don't submerge the roller in water — the toggle mechanism doesn't like it.
Does this roller work with both standard and organic RAW papers?
Yes. It works with any rolling paper that matches the roller's size — RAW Classic, RAW Organic Hemp, RAW Black, or papers from other brands. The roller doesn't care about the paper brand, only the width.
