Heinz Verhaegh Candle Wicks Heinz Stabilo & Stabilo KST Wicks

Formerly known as CD and CDN wicks respectively, the Stabilo and Stabilo KST wicks are coreless, non-directional, flat braided wicks with a special paper filament woven around them.

This configuration is engineered to promote maximum and consistent capillary action while ensuring a wick trimming flame posture.The Stabilo series is used in many different applications and is especially compatible with the harder-to-melt viscous waxes of both paraffin and vegetable base. The Stabilo KST series of wick is identical to the Stabilo series except that it has been treated with a special patent-pending process to resist the corrosive action of the acidic nature of natural-based candle waxes.

Glossary of terms

YieldMeasured in yards of wick per pound in weight. The higher the yield, the smaller the wick and the flame and the resulting heat generated.
ROCThe rate of wax consumption in ounces in one hour by the wick. The higher the burn rate the more wax which is being consumed. Used to determine how well a wick and wax combination is performing.
