This was the correct replacement and it fits and works just like the original. The price on Amazon was better than any other site I found ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This wick burns great *by S***N on January 2, 2024* Not sure why there are any bad reviews for this wick. I have an old Perfection 525 heater I got from a thrift store. The wick was shot. This one arrived quickly. It took me no more than 5 minutes to install it after watching one of the how-to online vids. That includes trimming it with a sharp pair of shears. I didn't feel like waiting 1/2 an hour for the fuel to creep up the wick to light it. I soaked it myself with a dropper of fuel. Now that $15 heater works like new. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fits and works perfectly; remember to pre-burn the top. *by E***N on March 12, 2023* Fit perfectly in my antique Perfection 730 heater, and works just like it should. Easy to install and burns well without any smoke or smell. This is definitely the one you want for your antique kerosene heater. It is solid woven cotton from top to bottom, not the stringy sock like some other brands. The tail is cut into 4 sections rather than 2 like the original wicks were, which probably makes it a little easier to guide them down into the tank. You will need to pre-burn the top edge of the wick before you put any kerosene in the tank, so that the top is level and doesn't smoke. To do this, after you install the wick and while you have the flame spreader removed, raise it so that all of the top edge of the wick is slightly above the top of the wick tubes. Squirt cigarette lighter fluid all along the top edge of the wick and light it. It will burn for a few minutes until it is burned down even with the top of the wick tube, then it will go out. Take the edge of a knife and scrape it until the top edge is all even with the top of the tubes. The wick is now level and you can fill the tank and light it up and enjoy! You won't be disappointed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/24625411-wick-kerosene-heat-aw500-mfrpartno-aw-500](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/24625411-wick-kerosene-heat-aw500-mfrpartno-aw-500) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
