Cosy Owl supplies the LX series Wedo wick which is designed for containers and free standing candles made primarily of paraffin wax but also performs well in blends containing vegetable wax. In addition, the series gives high performance with normal fragrance loads and color concentrations. The series has its own unique “X” chemical treatment. The coreless wick construction with additional stability threads provides excellent structural strength for use in both molding/pouring and pressing candle manufacturing operations. The wick is already firmly incorporated into a sustainer (metal tab) ready for placing into a heat resistant container.
The LX series is made purely of the highest grade ring-spun cotton. This improves overall consistency, helping candle manufacturing operations to run more smoothly and to provide better burning results.
Wedo wicks combine the highest grade wick materials, state of the art braiding and spooling technology as well as tried, tested and approved chemical treatments to provide the cleanest and safest possible burn in the materials in question. The materials and processes also ensure consistent product quality from start to finish and from batch to batch. The self-trimming wick stance minimizes or eliminates carbon deposit formation and greatly reduces afterglow. As an accredited supplier, Wedo only manufactures wicks which fulfill the stringent requirements of the European quality seal RAL GZ 041. Wedo is certified according to EN ISO 9001:2008.
These LX wicks are cut to 120mm in length and held in a 15mm x 3mm x 2.4mm metal sustainer.

Ordered the lx16 based on the suggestions on jar size, along with 14 and 18 to support testing, but the 16 was perfect. Great scent throw and melt pool when using. I switched from using the eco wick as I was finding it would create soot on the 2nd/3rd burn, but the LX
