Spooled candle wick, flat wick STG
This wick was developed for pillar candles to achieve optimal burning behaviour with paraffin blends with a stearin content of up to 20%. It can also be used for non-free-standing candle projects. It is a unwaxed, bleached flat wick made from cotton, which is particularly suitable for candles made of paraffin. The wick material is not treated with borax and tested according to RAL standards.
The flat wick STG is ideal for the production of pillar candles. Today, pillar candles are widespread and popular, due to their large and thick shape they can convince with a particularly long burning time. We also offer the candle wick STG as waxed single wicks, with metal base in lengths of 19 cm. The candle wick STG shows a good and consistent burning behaviour. The wick has a good wick stand and forms little to no slugs. The wicks are manufactured in Germany.
Usage
This wick material must be waxed before it is actually used as a wick. When cutting the individual wicks, please pay attention to the direction of the wick (head inside = K.i. or head outside = K.a.) and mark the lower end, e.g. with a red marker. Alternatively, you can also attach a metal base to the lower end of the wick, this also ensures a safe stand when making candles in containers. Now place the candle wick in the mould and then pour the wax into the mould. Wax adhesive plates for candles can be used to prevent the wick from moving during production.

We offer the candle wick in 3 varieties:
- STG 50: For candles up to approx. 5 cm Ø
- STG 69: For candles up to approx. 6,9 cm Ø
- STG 75: For candles up to approx. 7,5 cm Ø

Note
Spooled wicks with direction cannot be used to pull candles. There are many factors that have an influence on the burning behaviour of a candle. The main ones include the type of wax, the melting point of the wax, the thickness of the candle, and the addition of colour and scents. Test your candle project with our wicks before ordering a large number of wicks.
