Zinc Core Wicks are a cotton braided wick with a zinc inner core which provides rigidity, keeping the wick upright as the wax melts. Zinc Core Wicks are recommended for use in paraffin wax held in votives, floaters, tea lights, and container candles up to 2" - 3" in diameter.

Please note this wick information is only to provide a starting point for your candle making and is based on our own testing using a variety of containers, pillar molds, dyes, fragrances and waxes. Individual testing is recommended as style of container, mold, addition of candle dye and fragrance can alter the wick size required.
