CANDLE WICK FOR BEESWAX SHEETS – 60 FT

We recommend this wick for beeswax candles 1″ to 1-1/2″ wide.

Wicks for beeswax candles generally have to be about double the width of wicks for paraffin candles of the same size. The wider wick produces the best flame-to-burn ratio, allows the candle to burn almost entirely and without tunneling. Monitor the length of the wick as it burns; it may require trimming to prevent burnout to the edge of your candle. Always use a catch plate or candle holder with catch space in case of hot wax run-off.

(Tunneling occurs when the wick burns down the center of the candle, leaving a thick outside wall of wax. Tunneling is caused by using a wick too small for the width of the candle.)

Square braid cotton wick generally works best for beeswax candles. This wick does not have a wire or metal core.
