Wedo Stabilo Candle Wick
The Wedo Stabilo series is designed for blends of paraffin and vegetable waxes containing dye and fragrance. It is suitable for both container and pillar candles. The coreless wick construction combines threads made of the highest grade ring-spun cotton with paper filaments for extra stability.
Options
- Raw (Unwaxed) Wick – Specified number of metres supplied on a cardboard bobbin as a continuous, string-like wick. This format is for you to cut to the length you require and wax yourself.
- Waxed & Tabbed Wicks – pre-waxed with natural wax and fitted with a 15 mm metal sustainer tab. Supplied in packs of 50. To order larger volumes, update the quantity as needed in multiples of 50 (i.e. x20 for a quantity of 1000). Lengths available: 80 mm, 120 mm, and 160 mm. The smaller Stabilo sizes which are well-suited to making tealights are also available in a 30 mm pre-waxed height with sustainer fitted. Note that we are unable to offer the Stabilo 24 and Stabilo 26 sizes pre-waxed as these wicks are too thick to fit through our in-house waxing machines.
