candle wicks on reels
Constructed with an inner zinc core and a lead-free, cotton braid, Zinc Core Wick by São Vitor is often used in tealights, votives, pillars, and containers because it maximizes rigidity in the molten wax pool. Zinc Core Wick’s features are designed to help burn the coolest of all the cored wicks.
