Product description

Wedo is a leading global manufacturer of candle wicks and the LX wick series is designed to improve the burning of vegetable and paraffin waxes in both pillar and container candles.

The LX wick is a uniquely braided flat, coreless wick manufactured with a very firm structure. The LX wick eliminates carbon build-up at the top of the wick (so-called mushrooming), prevents overheating of glass containers and at the same time reduces the amount of smoke and soot during burning.

These wicks are cut to a length of 120 mm, are pre-waxed and also include a 15 mm metal sustainer. The wick is thus ready to be placed directly into the candle container. These flat braided wicks are coreless.

Wick length: 12 cm
Metal tab diameter: 1.5 cm

Material: pure cotton

Surface finish: paraffin

For the correct wick selection it is important to know the diameter of the candle container. In the case of a small size, your candle will not burn all the way to the edge and will create a so-called tunnel. In the case of using a wick that is too strong, the wax will melt excessively and the entire candle will be melted instead of the wax melting gradually and evenly.

Warning: Do not forget that selecting the correct type and size of wicks depends on many factors such as the type of wax used, the amount of fragrance added, the size and material of the container, etc. It is therefore necessary that you thoroughly test the proper burning behaviour of the wick before you start the final production of candles.
