The Zippo Classic insert is a replacement wick-and-flint chassis that drops into any Zippo case — restores the lighter mechanism without buying a new outer case.
Zippo manufactures replacement inserts in Bradford, Pennsylvania since 1932. The replaceable insert design is core to Zippo’s repair philosophy — a vintage case can be restored to working order with a new insert.
Use the Classic insert to restore inherited or vintage Zippo cases, replace worn-out original inserts, or convert a butane Zippo case back to the classic wick-and-fluid design.
