What do the three sets of numbers on the wicks mean?
The first number is the thickness of the wick. The bigger the number, the thicker the wick. The second number is the coded speed of which the string goes thru the wicking gears. The faster it goes thru the machine the tighter the wick is wicked (which keeps the wick from buring to fast). The last number is a code for the temperature of the wax as the wick goes thru the various gears. This temperature will vary according to the two previous numbers.
