Ronson Firebronze Lighter Flints
These flints are specifically designed for use in vintage lighters because they are ultra-soft and make huge showers of sparks and don’t leave behind much dust to gum up the wheel! So why wouldn’t we want to use these in our brand new lighters too right? I mean these things work amazing - better than any flint I’ve ever used by far. And the cool thing is it barely takes a half flick to light so these actually last longer too. The coating they have is also a nice benefit - they last indefinitely stored in the included dispenser and no degrading in lighter fluid if you store an extra in your felt pad (the tiny hole in the middle is what’s for in case you didn’t already know that).
These quickly earned their place in my build because like every component I carry, it’s only the best. And my triple-cut flint wheel barely shaves off tiny particles at a time. Worth checking out my store for innovative components I manufacture for Zippo’s with easy DIY installation tools and hardware included. I also have genuine Zippo factory replacement parts so you can keep your lighter 100% authentic without having to send it in for repairs. And the Build is engineered with every upgrade you can imagine and more as a ready to use slip in insert!

Ronson Firebronze flints are traditional ferrocerium lighter flints made from a mischmetal alloy formulated to produce a strong, consistent shower of sparks under mechanical friction.
Why I Like Firebronze
• Strong showers of sparks
• Wheel-friendly — the flint is designed to wear rather than unnecessarily sacrificing the hardened teeth of your striker wheel.
• Smooth striking feel — the softer alloy gives the wheel a noticeably different mechanical feel.
• Traditional lighter technology — based on the classic mischmetal ferrocerium chemistry that Zippo lighters were built around.
• Simple and proven — not an exotic ignition system. Just a softer flint that still generates huge sparks.
So I choose Firebronze flints; let the consumable take the wear, not the wheel - we don’t have to sacrifice spark for softness.
