A candle wick with a sustainer is a crucial component of a candle that ensures consistent and safe burning. The wick is typically made from braided or twisted cotton, designed to draw the melted wax (fuel) up to the flame through capillary action. The sustainer, usually a small metal or plastic disc, is attached to the base of the wick. It keeps the wick centered, prevents it from falling over as the candle burns, and secures the wick to the bottom of the container or candle mold. This setup helps maintain a steady flame, ensuring the candle burns evenly and completely.
