Performa Wick
Performa Wick is a high-performance curling wick with an exceptional stalk height (amount of wick above wax). These features promote a more symmetrical wax pool and a self-trimming posture. Its re-enforced design provides increased rigidity in the wax pool. It is also known to draw some of the harder-to-burn beeswax and viscous waxes. Performa Wick is an excellent choice for several applications such as tapers, pillars, medium and large containers. This wick is constructed of 100% natural based fibers.
