Best Wick Tabs and Stickers

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Tabs and stickers are cheap, which is exactly why they get overlooked until a wick tips over mid burn. Tab diameter and neck height control how much wax is left in the bottom of the jar and how safely the flame ends. Stickers vary in adhesive strength, heat tolerance and whether they leave residue on glass. Cold weather and dusty jars both weaken a poor adhesive. We judged hold strength on clean glass, behavior near the end of a burn, neck height options, tab sizing against common wick series, and how much residue was left behind. Anyone selling candles should buy tabs matched to their wick series rather than generic assortments. Hobbyists can use mixed packs happily. Tab neck height affects burn depth, so factor it into your wick testing.
