Wedo VRL Candle Wick
Wedo VRL Candle Wick
The Wedo VRL candle wick is a flat, coreless, cotton wick. It is particularly suited to natural waxes with a low melt point - such as soy. The Wedo VRL candle wick is wonderfully versatile and can be used in many applications including pillar candles, container candles, and votive candles.
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.
- Waxed wicks are available with an adhesive pad attached to the sustainer, making it easy to securely attach the wick to your candle container. Adhesive wick pads are also sold separately if you prefer to apply them yourself.
Note that we are unable to offer the VRL26 size pre-waxed as this wick is too thick to fit through our in-house waxing machines.
