40m of 1mm fiberglass Wick?

[BigBulli]

It says 40m of 1mm fiberglass wick for 10 euros. This may be what is used by cetin in the A2.

Hi sms. You might have a better luck posting your question over on the modders forum. Also, here's an old thread on wick material. I'm not sure if the links in it are still good or not. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/where-can-i-get/111873-looking-atty-wick-material.html

Don't use fiberglass. You need silica.

 

[BigBulli]

why shouldn't I use fiberglass?

 

[MickeyRat]

Mainly heat resistance.

 

[BigBulli]

ok thanks for the advise i'll look into silica

I tried to use fiberglass in the eGo-T wick mod: it melts. The operating temperature of an atty surpasses the integrity of fiberglass: nasty, icky, yucky vapor-- and probably not too healthy, either.

If you compare the temperatures of silica versus fiberglass, you'll see what's up; if you search this site for simple cj's wick mod, he provides a mail-order supplier for the silica.

I hate to tell you people silica fiber is All-glass fiber. the only danger with this is the fibers can be inhaled if run dry/broken. Newports several years ago used fiberglass filters and people used to cough up blood fro the fibers they inhaled. your atomizer is not hot enough to melt glass. there are fiberglass wicks that contain other stuff that melts
