Cotton wick, natural 1 mm, length 5 m

100% cotton wicks - free from synthetics, chemicals, and an aluminum core. It's safe for your health and ideal for an eco-friendly style.

Advantages of cotton wicks:

• no smoking, cracking, or "sinking" in wax thanks to the tight braided weave
• no fragrance distortion
• burns self-cleaning, without soot formation
• ideal for soy, beeswax, coconut, palm, and paraffin waxes

Before use, the cotton wick should be soaked in a wax mixture. The optimal ratio is stearic acid:soy wax in a 2:3 ratio.
The wick thickens, absorbs various types of wax well during burning, and does not choke. Visually, it is pure white.

For proper combustion, monitor the wick size by regularly trimming it to 5 mm. To ensure safe burning and wick retention in container and loose leaf candles, be sure to use a wick holder and stickers to fix the wick

We've tested 1mm wicks and recommend using them for making beeswax dipped candles up to 10-12mm in diameter.

Soy wax has a melt pool of approximately 38-40mm, making them ideal for larger-diameter candles with multiple wicks. Test the optimal number and position of wicks on each mold!

A 1 mm diameter wick is also suitable for tea lights and small palm wax candles.
