This 2mm flat cotton wick is ideal for dipped candles around 30 mm in diameter and moulded candles approximately 80–100 mm in diameter.
Yes, this wick performs well with popular wax types, including natural soy wax, as well as paraffin and stearin blends.
The wick is supplied on a generous roll measuring 50 meters in length and weighing approximately 100 grams.
Yes, the wick is easy to cut and work with, making it suitable for beginners. However, achieving optimal results may require some experimentation with wick size relative to candle diameter and wax type.
This is a standard cotton wick and does not typically require pre-treatment. It is designed to absorb wax and burn effectively as is.
Ensure the wick is centered and trimmed to about 0.5-1 cm before lighting. For moulded candles, the 2mm width is designed to help achieve an even burn pool reaching the edges for diameters between 80-100mm.
The wick may be too small for the candle's diameter or the wax type. Try using a slightly wider wick or ensure the wick is centered. For this 2mm wick, ensure your molded candle is within the 80-100mm range.
The wick may be too large for the candle's diameter, or there might be drafts. Trim the wick to about 0.5 cm. If the issue persists, consider a slightly narrower wick for future batches.
This can happen if the wick is too soft or the wax pool is too deep. Ensure the wick is centered and taut. For thicker candles, a more robust wick like this one is generally suitable, but check that the wick isn't saturated with too much fragrance oil.
This could be due to impurities in the wax, the wick not being fully saturated, or the wick being too close to the container wall. Ensure wax is properly melted and free of debris. Verify the wick is centered and properly secured.
