CD-4 3-inch Cotton 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. The variance of the 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.

Shipping has to change

I have not used these yet but will today, however 3 of the 12 wicks are unusable because they are bent to the point I cannot even mold them to be straight as I have been told to do in the past. The minute the hot wax hits them they will not be straight. Have this issue with other wicks in the past. The way they are shipped needs to change. I have pics if you need them.

Love these !

I use coconut apricot wax & they Work great! Amazing HT! It does mushroom a little but it’s nothing that can’t be fixed by cutting it off. Works great for me!

Love that these come in 3"

I love the CD4 for my straight sided 4 oz jars with 464. This is the only size/series of wick I've found that gives nice scent throw AND doesn't create a super hot jar from the 1/2 to rest of the life of the candle. I love that they come in 3" for less waste & less trimming. These are also virtually self trimming in the jar I use them for as well.

CD 4 3" Pretabbed Wick

I love the CD 4 3" wicks, they have a good burn pull and they burn clean. I made large 4 inch 3 wick jar candles for my family for Christmas and they loved them. They burn clean and have a high fragrance throw and nice burn pull. I highly recommend the CD 4 wicks for a large candle.

OK

I used CD4 for 2oz tin. I got full melt and mo tunneling but I noticed that the flame is kind of small. I wish CS sell wick sample kits for different types of candles like they used to (not sure why they stopped doing this. Make less money or something??). Now I need to wait till wicks are available. It’s just annoying to buy bulk that I don’t end up using.
