Candle Wicks

Designed for makers and artisans who want to craft their own candles with greater precision, these candle wicks are an essential supply for achieving a stable burn that suits each candle style. They help fine-tune the result according to the candle diameter and the type of material being used.

These wicks are available in several sizes, including 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, and 80 strands. The product page explains that the larger the candle diameter, the more strands it needs. Choosing the right size is therefore important for achieving a balanced flame and proper burning performance.

A wick that is too small can cause the flame to go out or make the candle burn poorly, creating a large tunnel in the center without properly melting the outer wax. On the other hand, a wick that is too large can create a bigger flame, produce more smoke, and make the candle melt much faster. The page also explains that the correct number of strands can vary depending on the material used, such as wax or paraffin, as well as the fragrance, candle shape, and color.
