A&P Ply Flat Braid Cotton Wick:
Flat braid wick has a decorative appearance and
is commonly used in dipped or molded self-supporting candles, such as tapers
and pillars. This wick is designed to provide a slight bend when burned, which
allows for an even burn and a reduction of carbon formation (mushroom) at the
wicks tip.
A&P Flat Braid Ply Wick is sold
raw and is not wax primed. Choose from 100' length or a 1 pound spool.
24 ply approx. 1506 feet

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!
