Fil-Tec Ultra Core Candle Wicks
We carry all 18 sizes of Ultra Core Wicks!
Rigid, all-fiber wicks with a knitted construction. These wicks offer the same stability of zinc-core wicks - without the wire core. Made in the USA.
- Designed to stay straight in your wax as you pour.
- High melt point natural wax coating.
- Great for single-wick and multi-wick candles.
- Performs well in all wax types - including coconut, soy, beeswax, paraffin and other blends.
- Capable of handling heavy fragrance loads and difficult waxes.
- Suitable for container candles and votives.
- Wicks produce shorter, hotter flames and create little to no soot.
The patented open construction of Ultra Core Wicks provides optimal capillary flow. This results in better melt pools with a stronger fragrance throw and less tunneling. Read our tips for getting started with Ultra Core wicks.
Length: 6"
Tab size: 20mm round base with a 6mm neck that helps stabilize the wick.
Lead and zinc free.
Suggested Container Size (Container Diameter)
The sizing system for Ultra Core Wicks is based on the size of the melt pool when burned in paraffin wax. The wick numbers below represent the diameter of the 140 degree melt pool of paraffin wax after burning for two hours.

Shipping
All of our products are handmade and can take time to make. We try to keep an inventory of all of our products on hand at all times to allow us to ship out most orders the day they are received or the next day in the majority of cases, however a delay of 2-3 days or even a week can happen for new molds the first week they are released, popular molds that have been posted/shared in a large community causing a surge of demand, a large order with multiple copies of the same mold, etc. Our current processing time is 1-5 business days. It is very rare that any of our orders will take longer than a week to process, but if something comes up where your product will be delayed that long we will do our best to reach out and let you know the orders progress along the way! We use USPS for shipping, with most small orders going out as first class mail, usually arriving in 2-4 business days.
