A package comprising a length of strand material in the form of a desoldering wick of braided wire having a coating of rosin thereon, a unitary annular body molded of plastic material including a central hub, first and second sides, and first and second continuous rims, the hub, sides and rims defining an annular chamber receiving therein the length of strand material in coil formation, the rims defining a continuous annular slot communicating with the outer periphery of the annular chamber of a size to permit the free end portion of the length of strand material in coil formation to extend therethrough in controllably engaged fashion. The first side has a plurality of first annularly spaced portions defining a plurality of first axially extending openings communicating with the annular chamber so as to provide for the free exterior communication of the exposed surfaces of a coil of strand material contained therein and the second side has a plurality of second annularly spaced portions defining a plurality of second axially extending openings communicating with the annular chamber so as to provide for the free exterior communication of the exposed surfaces of a coil of strand material contained therein. The first annularly spaced portions are axially accessible through the second openings, while the second annularly spaced portions are axially accessible through the first openings.
