The classic yellow BIC lighter is a widely recognized, full-size (Maxi) disposable lighter known for its reliability, safety standards, and simple design. It is made of high-quality plastic and filled with pure isobutane fuel for a stable flame.
Features & Specifications
- Material: The body and base are made of a strong, high-resistance plastic called Delrin (acetyl resin), which is resistant to impact and high temperatures.
- Fuel Type: Filled with pure isobutane gas, which provides a stable, consistent flame throughout the lighter’s lifespan.
- Dimensions: A standard full-size (Maxi) BIC lighter measures approximately 7.6 cm (3 inches) in height, 2 cm in width, and 2.5 cm in thickness.
- Weight: An individual standard BIC lighter weighs around 21 grams.
- Lights: Each Maxi lighter provides up to 3,000 lights, which is significantly more than other full-size leading brands.
Safety & Quality
BIC places a strong emphasis on safety, with every lighter undergoing more than 50 separate, automatic quality checks during the manufacturing process.
- Child-Resistant: All BIC lighters feature a child-resistant safety mechanism (a metal guard over the sparkwheel) to prevent accidental ignition by children.
- Safety Standards: The lighters meet or exceed all relevant international safety standards, including ISO 9994. They are routinely drop-tested from significant heights and can withstand high temperatures.
- Fixed Flame: The design ensures a pre-adjusted, fixed flame height and prevents spitting or flaring.

The classic yellow BIC lighter is ubiquitous and can be found at most convenience stores, gas stations, supermarkets, and online retailers.
