Lume & Co. Wax Coated Candle Wicks with Metal Tabs | Pre-Waxed Wicks for Candle Making | Pack of 100

Lume & Co.™ Wax Coated Candle Wicks with Metal Tabs are ready-to-use pre-waxed wicks designed for easy, clean and consistent candle making. Each wick comes wax-coated for better handling and fitted with a metal sustainer tab at the base, making it easier to place and secure inside jars, containers, moulds and DIY candle projects.

These tabbed candle wicks are suitable for making jar candles, container candles, tealights, votives, small pillars, decorative candles, festive candles and handmade candle gifts. The pre-waxed finish helps the wick stay straighter during setup, while the metal tab supports stable placement at the bottom of the candle container or mould.

Available in multiple sizes from 1.5 inch to 12 inch, these candle making wicks are useful for beginners, hobby makers, workshops and small candle businesses. Choose the wick length according to your candle height, wax type, container diameter, fragrance load and final burn test results. For best performance, always test wick size before making large batches.
