Our basic practice eating torch is light-weight 3/16 inch (0.5 cm) diameter Aluminum with 6 (15 cm) inches of 1.5 inch (3.8 cm) adhesive-backed wick; there is no exposed metal on the wick. Torches are 16 inches (41 cm) long, and are intended for beginning and intermediate fire-eaters practicing fire-eating for teaching and learning purposes.

These basic torches can last for months before needing the wicking replaced, if stored and used properly. Keep away from water and humidity, and store on top of other equipment if stored with your other gear. Do not pull, grab, or apply force to the wick material. As the wick is adhesive-backed, the torches are not suitable for performance.

For use with white gas and lighter fluid only; do not use alcohols, lamp oil, kerosene, or biodiesel.
