CD 10 6" Pretabbed Candle Wicks
Choose a Variant

Product Update:

You may see some variation in the wax coating on the wick due to different coating processes. Varying amounts of wax coating on the wick has no impact on the burn of the candle.

About the CD Series
CD (Stabilo) wick is a flat braided cotton wick with paper threads woven into the cotton. The reinforced construction of the wick is designed to ensure a consistent burn with higher fragrance loads, especially with softer, more viscous natural waxes. The superior rigidity of CD wick allows the wick to stand up straighter for easier pours and keeps the wick upright in a deep melt pool.

Note: Any carbon buildup should be removed once the wick is extinguished.

CD wicks are lead and zinc free.

For help choosing the right wick for your candle, visit our wick guide.

Conveniently secure your wicks with Wick Stickers (large) or Wick Stickers Pro.

Great wicks

I love CD wicks, they surpass any other wick series I've tried in 7 years of candlemaking. Trimming & proper candle care is important for customers... these provide a perfectly clean, soot free burn if basic candle care is followed.

CD10 Wick with Paraffin/Coconut Wax

I went with the recommended CD12 with the new Paraffin/Coconut Wax in the 21oz, 3” diameter Status Jars… A tad too big. A lot of mushrooming, soot and it wasn’t trimming as it should. I do like the wax though so I’m going to try the CD10. Previously, I used the Comfort Blend Wax which is also wonderful, although messy with LX16, high fragrance load (over 10%) with 2 drops of color and my candles burned nonstop (it was in a very safe place) for every bit of just under, literally by 1.5 hours, 7 days!! I hope the Paraffin/Coconut lasts as long with the CD10. Burn tests coming soon! If it doesn’t work out I’ll go back to my previous wax & wicks.

These wicks totally upped my candle-making game!

I had been using a "standard" 6" wick I found on that colossal online bookseller/retailer. The wicks were doing a good enough job, but I hated seeing the wax collect on one side of my containers and/or the wax tunneling. I played around with the pour temp and tried to better center the wicks. No improvement. Then I took a chance with Candle Science's CD wick series and BOOM! the burn was amazingly even. I use the CD 10, 14 and 20 as my candle containers are cut beer, wine and liquor bottles--all different sizes/diameters. These wicks have greatly improved the quality of my candles. Thank you!

Perfect for Mason jars

I bought these and ECO10 for use in standard Mason Jars. About 3” diameter. I burnt them side by side. Would not recommend the ECO. Tall flame and lots of soot. The CD10’s are great though.

Great in candle tins

Using GB464 with a 12% fragrance load in the 4 oz CS candle tins, I was a little worried this wick might be too much. It may have burned a *little* fast but I got a full melt pool at around 90 minutes. The flame didn't stutter or smoke. There is a slight mushroom on the tip of the wick but it seems like it burns itself out really well without causing any issues. Prior to buying these to try, I saw that several people said the CD8 was too small for the 4 oz tin so I figured I'd try this one and step down if necessary. Glad I did!
