Round Wick Tabs

🕯️ Candle Cocoon Wick Tabs – Flame-Stopping Safety for Braided Wicks Candle Cocoon’s metal wick tabs are essential components for safer candle making with braided textile wicks. These tabs serve as flame-stopping barriers, helping prevent the flame from continuing to the bottom of the container—reducing the risk of overheating or breakage. The longer the wick tab neck, the more wax remains at the end of the candle's life, enhancing overall safety.

Wick tabs should be used with glue dots, high-temperature hot glue, or wick stickers to center and secure wicks during pouring. Proper adhesion keeps the wick in place and helps prevent shifting, which can lead to hot spots or container failure.

🧵 Wick Tab Neck Heights and Recommendations

  • Under 4 mm: Minimal flame resistance, typically used with thinner wicks in tea lights or votives

  • 4–6 mm: Standard for most container or pillar candle applications

  • 6 mm or taller: Recommended for maximum safety; often leaves ½" or more of wax at the base with standard braided wicks

Why They’re Essential

  • Acts as a flame-stopping safety feature

  • Designed for use with braided textile wicks

  • Suitable for soy, paraffin, and beeswax candles

  • Ideal for jar, votive, and pillar designs

  • Durable metal base supports long-lasting performance

🛠️ Pro Tip When crimping the tab, it’s okay if the base curls slightly—what matters most is secure adhesion. Clean your container with soap and water or an alcohol wipe before applying adhesive. Allow alcohol to fully evaporate before pouring wax.

✂️ Bonus Tip Extra tabs are a must-have when ordering wicks. You can extend wick use by cutting longer lengths and re-tabbing any leftovers.
