A&P Performa Series Wicks:
A&P
Performa wick is a non-curling flat braided wick with a high stalk
height. These features promote a more symmetrical wax pool and
self-trimming posture. Its reinforced design provides increased rigidity
in the wax pool as well as in drawing some of the harder to burn
viscous waxes.
The Performa wick is appropriate
for applications such as tapers, pillars, beeswax, viscous waxes and
medium to large containers.
The Performa series wicks are primed in a high melt point paraffin wax, cut to a 6” length and tabbed with a 20mm round tab with a 6mm neck.
*Performa series wicks are
tested and sized based on use in a Straight Paraffin Wax with No
Additives. Wicks are based on the WIDEST area diameter of the jar you
plan to use. This is typically not measured at the opening unless the
container is perfectly straight up and down.

We
can not guarantee any certain wick to work best in any application
because of the many variables involved. But we can get you started on
the right track! The only way to determine the appropriate wick
selection is through experimentation. Test burning will be necessary to
determine the best wicks for your candles!
