Constructed of a cotton flat braid, with paper fibers throughout, Stabilo wick by Heinz Jansen are often used in tealights, votives, pillars, and containers because it provides increased rigidity and enhances burning properties for natural waxes. Stabilo features a flat braided wick with a special paper filament to promote maximum and consistent capillary action while ensuring a wick trimming flame posture. The difference between Stabilo and Stabilo KST Wick is a subtle but important one. The Stabilo wick curls more while the Stabilo KST curls less.
Features:
- Constructed from cotton flat braid with paper fibers throughout.
- Designed to be used in tealights, votives, pillars, and containers.
- Engineered to increase rigidity and enhance burning properties for natural waxes.

Glossary of Terms
Yield
Measured in yards of wick per pound in weight. The higher the yield, the smaller the wick and the flame and the resulting heat generated.
ROC
The rate of wax consumption in ounces by the wick in one hour. The higher the burn rate the more wax which is being consumed. Used to determine how well a wick and wax combination is performing.
Chart Statistics
Chart statistics contributed by the manufacturer. These statistics should be viewed as reasonable estimates for comparison purposes only. Actual results should be determined on an application by application basis. The chart provides only general trends and results may vary depending upon blend, color, fragrance, wax and shape/size of the container.
