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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions – Zippo Replacement Wick

Here you will find answers about the Zippo Replacement Wick – from length and fit to trimming and changing the wick, delivery within Switzerland and how to change it safely.

What is the Zippo Replacement Wick?
It is Zippo’s genuine wick for Zippo windproof lighters. According to Zippo, it keeps your windproof lighter working at optimal performance. Each package contains one wick.
How long is the Zippo Replacement Wick?
The wick is 100 mm long. Once fitted, you cut it flush with the chimney.
Which lighters does the Zippo Replacement Wick fit?
According to Zippo, it fits all Zippo windproof lighters, regular or Slim size – including the Classic models and the 1941 Replica.
When do I need a new Zippo Replacement Wick?
Zippo recommends replacing the wick once it has been trimmed two or three times, or when the lighter no longer lights properly.
Should I trim my Zippo wick or fit the Zippo Replacement Wick straight away?
If the wick is just blackened by soot, trimming is enough: pull out about 1 cm with tweezers and cut it flush with the chimney, once or twice a year. Only after two or three trims do you fit the Zippo Replacement Wick.
How do I look after the wick once the Zippo Replacement Wick is fitted?
Keep the lid closed when you are not using the lighter and refill before every outing, because fluid evaporates even when unused. When the wick turns black, trim it as described.
How do I fit the Zippo Replacement Wick?
Take the insert out of the case and remove the flint screw, felt, cotton and old wick – note the order. Thread the new wick through the chimney hole and bend it over the top. Put the cotton back in small pieces, weaving the wick between them in an S shape. Refit felt and flint screw, cut the wick flush and refill the lighter.
What else do I need with the Zippo Replacement Wick?
Zippo Lighter Fluid 125 ml for refilling and Zippo Flints 6 Pack as spares. As tools: tweezers, a small screwdriver or a coin for the flint screw, and something to cut the wick.
What warranty applies to the Zippo Replacement Wick?

How fast does Swiss-Sale.ch deliver the Zippo Replacement Wick?

Why buy the Zippo Replacement Wick from Swiss-Sale.ch?
Swiss-Sale.ch is a Swiss specialist retailer for outdoor equipment: you get the genuine wick shipped from Switzerland with no customs fees, and warranty handling runs through us. If you have questions about changing the wick or matching accessories, we are happy to advise you personally.
What should I watch out for when fitting the Zippo Replacement Wick?
Only change the wick when the lighter is not lit and has cooled down – it can get hot after prolonged use. Work away from open flames, as the cotton may still contain fluid. The spring under the flint screw is under tension, so loosen the screw carefully and tighten it fully when reassembling. Lighter fluid can irritate the skin: wipe off any excess after refilling and only then light the lighter.
