It is an essential material when making candles, since it is responsible for the candle burning, so choosing it properly is essential for correct combustion. It is a cotton wick with a cotton core, waxed, cut to 15 cm, and ready to place in the candle. Its thickness varies, that is, the number of filaments it has.

How to choose the wick

When choosing the thickness of the wick you must take into account:

  • The diameter of the sail: that is, how thick the sail is going to be. To do this, you only have to measure the width of the mold or container. For example, if the mold is 8 cm wide, the recommended wick will be cal.32, for candles with a diameter of 8-10 cm.
  • The melting point of the wax used: the higher the melting point of the wax, the thicker the wick should be, since it will take longer to burn and therefore the wick will have to be stronger.
  • The use of additives: if you use additives, the melting point will be higher, so it is important to take this into account. The addition of coloring and aromatic essence also influences.

There are several factors that must be taken into account when opting for one wick or another, which is why our recommendation is that you always do a test with different wicks to see how they burn. In this way you will ensure better results if you are going to manufacture a large number of candles.

How to place the finished wick

There are various techniques to place the wick and everything basically depends on the preparation that you are going to do:

  • Scented candles: You have to stick the wick holder at the base of the container and fill with the melted wax.
  • Candles type cirio: When the mold does not have a base, the wick + the wick holder is placed in the center of the mold and is held at the top with a support for wicks. The mold is filled and, when it has solidified, the candle is demolded. Once finished you can put a little hot wax on the base to seal the wick holder.
