Pre-Tabbed Wax Wicks (6 Pack)

Pre-Tabbed Wax Wicks make candle setup easier with ready-to-position wicks attached to metal bases, giving crafters a convenient starting point for container candles and colorful wax projects.

Start Your Candle With the Wick Ready to Go

A properly positioned wick is one of the essential starting points for candle making. These pre-tabbed candle wicks simplify that step by pairing each wick with a metal sustainer tab at the bottom, eliminating the need to attach a separate tab before beginning your project.

Each wick measures 8", providing extra length for use with a variety of candle-making projects. Position the metal base at the bottom of an appropriate candle container, keep the wick centered and upright, add the wax according to your candle-making method, and trim the wick to the appropriate finished length.

These wicks pair especially well with decorative candle projects using granulated wax. Crafters can place the wick first, then pour different wax colors around it to build stripes, layers, patterns, and personalized candle designs without melting the granulated wax before layering.

For schools, after-school programs, camps, recreation centers, senior programs, and other supervised group activities, having the wick and metal tab already together reduces preparation and keeps the candle-making setup more straightforward.

Wick performance depends on the candle container, wax type, diameter, fragrance, dyes, additives, and other variables. Always select an appropriate wick for the candle being made and test completed candles for safe, proper burning before regular use.
