WW-4 Wooden Wick (Soy Wax) – Medium Crackle
Intro: WW-4 wicks are 5/8″ wide and roughly 5″ long, meant for medium-large containers (around 3–3.5″ diameter). They produce a strong flame with a pronounced crackling sound, making them excellent for large mason jars, pillar-like container candles, or any candle where you want a vivid flame. As a Soy Wax series wick, WW-4 is built slightly thicker to excel in soy wax candles – it helps maintain a consistent burn in pure soy, which can be a difficult-to-burn wax. This wick bridges the gap between medium and large candles, giving you reliable performance across various wax types.
-
Bolder Crackle: Enjoy a more pronounced crackling fireplace effect. WW-4’s larger flame emits that comforting, audible crackle that adds character to any room.
-
For Larger Jars: Best used in candles about 3 to 3.5 inches in diameter. It’s a go-to wick for larger tumblers or wide jar candles, ensuring the melt pool reaches edges for an even burn.
-
All-Wax Compatibility: Performs well in soy wax (its specialty), as well as paraffin, palm, or soy/paraffin blends – truly versatile for different candle formulations.
-
Minimal Soot: Burns clean with almost no soot or smoking when properly trimmed. There’s no mushrooming, and very little char debris falls into the wax.
-
Easy to Use: The stiff wooden strip and universal clip make setup simple. There’s no need to straighten or tension the wick during pouring – it stays put and upright on its own.
Usage Instructions:
-
Setup: Insert the WW-4 wick into the metal wick clip (sold separately) and center it in your container. Use a generous glue dot or melted wax to fix the clip at the jar’s bottom. This wider 5/8″ wick will stand firm with the clip’s support.
-
Pour Candle: Pour in your melted wax carefully. Because WW-4 is a larger wick, ensure it stays centered – you can use a wick holder or stick across the jar if needed, but generally the wooden wick won’t bend. Let the candle cool completely.
-
Trim to 1/8″: Snip or gently break off the burnt tip of the wick so that about 1/8″ of fresh wood is above the wax before lighting. Keeping the wick short like this controls the flame height for safety.
-
Burn: Light the wick and revel in the stronger flame and crackle. Allow a full melt pool to form (which WW-4 wicks achieve relatively quickly thanks to their wide flame). After extinguishing, trim the charred part again to prepare for the next burn.
WW-4 wooden wicks bring larger candles to life with a bright, crackling flame. If you love the ambiance of a wood-burning hearth, these wicks will deliver that experience in your bigger soy candles.

Despite picture they do not come with clips!
I'm annoyed that they dont come with clips.the clips are the only part I need. The wicks are disposable. I have hundreds. I cannot find the clips to save my life. I realize NOW that it says at the bottom they are sold separately (although I can't find them ANYWHERE). I am annoyed but ultimately it is my problem. Dont buy if you need clips. They dont come with any at all. Not sure why they have anything about how great the clips are in the description for this product or why they are in the picture... it does make it very confusing. And entirely frustrating for someone that just needs the damn clips.
