Zippo Replacement Wick
100 mm genuine wick for every Zippo windproof lighter
If your Zippo lights reluctantly or the flame is uneven, the wick is often worn out – blackened by soot and already trimmed several times. The Zippo Replacement Wick gets your windproof lighter back in shape: a 100 mm genuine Zippo wick that fits all Zippo windproof lighters.
Buy the Zippo Replacement Wick – so your windproof lighter lights reliably again
The Zippo Replacement Wick is Zippo’s genuine wick for all Zippo windproof lighters, in regular and Slim size. It measures 100 mm and each package contains one wick. According to Zippo, the genuine wick keeps your windproof lighter working at optimal performance, and the brand recommends genuine fluid, flints and wicks. The fuel-soaked wick carries the flame – whether you are lighting a campfire, the barbecue or a few candles.

When to trim the wick and when to replace it
Over time, soot turns the wick black. Zippo advises trimming it once or twice a year: pull out about 1 cm with tweezers and cut it flush with the chimney. After two or three trims, or when the lighter no longer lights properly, it is time for the Zippo Replacement Wick.
Changing the wick step by step – following Zippo’s instructions
Pull the insert out of the case and remove everything from the fuel chamber: flint screw, felt, cotton and the old wick. Note the order as you go. Thread the new wick through the hole in the chimney and bend it over the top. Put the cotton back in small pieces, weaving the wick between them in an S shape. Then refit the felt and flint screw and cut the wick flush with the chimney. Finally, refill the lighter with fluid.
Fits every Zippo windproof lighter – from Classic to 1941 Replica
According to the manufacturer, the Zippo Replacement Wick fits all Zippo windproof lighters. Zippo’s wick-changing instructions apply to both the regular and the Slim model. Whether Classic case or 1941 Replica: with a spare wick at hand, your Zippo stays ready for use.
What the Zippo Replacement Wick does – and what it doesn’t
The wick replaces the worn wick in your Zippo windproof lighter. Fluid and flints are not included – for those we stock Zippo Lighter Fluid 125 ml and Zippo Flints 6 Pack. To change the wick you also need tweezers, a small screwdriver or a coin for the flint screw, and something to cut the wick.
