Wick Waxes
We've searched the market place for the finest
wick waxes. Wicks Unlimited offers a choice of three different wickwaxes:
Standard, High Melt, and Vegetable wickwax.
All of our waxing machines are engineered and
built to our exacting specifications and are exclusive to Wicks
Unlimited.
Our goal in the design of these machines was 100%
predictability in the quality of the waxed wick, whether used in
the production of our wick clip assemblies, or sold on reels to
our customers.
Choose the Appropriate Wax
When using non-metal cored wicks, there is
the potential of the wick-wax melting and the wicks flopping
upon pour. A similar situation can occur in a 180° burn
pool where the standard wick-wax will melt, and the wick may
wind up floating in the burn pool.
These issues can be rectified by using a
210° high melt wax in conjuction with the non-metal cored
wicks.

Wax Penetration of Wick
There is a difference in Wick Waxing
Wicks Unlimited’s waxing procedures
saturate the wick to its core by gently forcing air out of the
raw wick. This allows the wick to burn in a more uniform and
predictable manner, and makes it easier to work with in production.
