WickWell NT Candle Wick

The WickWell NT range of wicks are designed for use in natural waxes. In particular, they are well suited to candles made using beeswax or other waxes. Beeswax often has a higher melt point in comparison to other natural waxes (such as soy) and therefore it is normal to find you must use a larger wick when making beeswax candles. More information can be found below in our wax pool guide. Candles made using stearin or natural candle sands – which often prove difficult to wick – can also burn successfully with the WickWell NT candle wick.

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 NT sizes which are well-suited to making beeswax tealights are also available in a 30 mm pre-waxed height with sustainer fitted. Note that we are unable to offer the NT38 and above sizes pre-waxed as these wicks are too thick to fit through our in-house waxing machines.

Important Disclaimer

Wick performance depends on many variables, including wax type, fragrance load, dye, additives, candle diameter, and ambient conditions. Testing is required to confirm a suitable and effective burn for your specific wax and fragrance blend.
