Wicks for container candles mounted on holder (LX)
These wicks are specially designed for making poured candles (container candles, scented paraffin and paraffin gel candles)
Particularly pretty, the LX wicks are made in Europe from 100% cotton threads.
The flame is consistent, LX wicks work well with natural waxes and paraffin waxes and ensure an even burn.
LX candle wicks are guaranteed lead and zinc free. To help you choose the right wick for your candle, check out our wick guide.
Our wicks are untreated and comply with European REACH regulations.
Choosing the right wick for your creation
It is important to choose your wick carefully according to the diameter of your glass.
If you use perfume and/or dyes, you will need to take a larger size.
Trial and error is the only way to ensure correct wicking.
An improperly matched, low-wattage wick will cause a crater.
A wick that is too powerful will cause a large flame with significant consumption.
A well-fitted wick melts the wax over the entire diameter with a height of 10 mm (pool)
Our usage tips
To use it, a coated wick on a base, pour 2 mm of liquid wax into your container and immediately add your coated wick to the bottom to hold it. Thus, after 15 seconds, your wick will be perfectly fixed in the wax. Then, fill your container leaving 7 mm of wick on the surface.
Remember, depending on the dosage and type of wax and/or dye, it is important to carry out tests to define the right wick for your candles. If you have difficulty choosing, we invite you to consult our guide to choosing a candle wick.
