Q: What are twisted candle wicks?

A: These wicks are not braided. Instead, we ply several pieces of 10s cotton yarns into a bundle. They are classified by the quantity of cotton yarns in the wicks.

 

Q: What is the application of twisted candle wicks?

A: They are mainly used for birthday candles, party candles and cheap stick illumination candles.

 

Q: What are flat candle wicks?

A: These wicks are braided in the same way as a pig tail is braided. There are three bundles of 21s cotton yarns in total. They are very consistent in their burning and curl in the flame for a self-trimming effect. They are the most commonly used wicks, and can be broadly found in taper and pillar candles.

 

Q: What are round candle wicks?

A: These wicks are braided in the same way as a shoe lace is braided. The round candle wicks are usually with a plastic core or paper core to keep the wicks straight or upright while burning. The wicks have a round cross section, and the use of different core materials provides a range of stiffness effects. Cored round candle wicks can be found in jar candles, pillars, votives and gel candles.

 

Q: What are tabbed wicks?

A: The wicks above are raw wicks which are wound into spools. We have automatic wick waxing machine and wick cutting and assembling machine to produce tabbed wicks, too. The cotton wicks are coated with high melt point wax to make them rigid, then they are crimped around metal wick holders and cut into the required length. Tabbed wicks are able to be directly used in in tealights, jar candles, pillars, votives and gel candles.

 

Q: I make beeswax candles. Do you have wicks for beeswax candles?

A: Yes. Beeswax is with a high melt point, and it requires a larger wick.

 
Q: Do you have wicks for soy wax candles?

A: Yes, some of our wicks work well with soy wax candles. Refined paraffin wax easily travel up the wick and produce the wax vapor needed to keep the wick burning . Other waxes, such as soy wax, require a larger wick to allow for pyrolysis to occur. We suggest that candle makers to use a larger wick when making vegetable wax candles.
