Quick answer
If the slide arms on your FLIP ZERO break or lose tension, you can buy replacement slide arms for a few dollars — but only if the cup itself is still in good shape.
Why slide arms wear out
The FLIP ZERO's slide arms are the plastic rails that let the cup open and close. Over time, repeated flexing or accidental over-extension can cause them to crack or become loose. This is normal wear for a reusable product, not a sign of poor quality.
When to replace vs. when to stop
If only the arms are damaged and the silicone sleeve is intact, a replacement set is the most cost-effective fix. But if the sleeve itself has tears, permanent odor, or loss of texture, it's time to retire the whole cup. Replacement arms are not covered by the original product warranty, so buying a new cup may make more sense if the sleeve is also failing.
Diagnosis & action guide
- Symptom: The cup won't stay closed, one arm feels loose, or a piece has snapped off.
- Likely cause: Normal wear from repeated opening/closing, or accidental over-extension beyond the design limit.
- Corrective action: Purchase replacement slide arms (compatible with non-vibrating FLIP ZERO and FLIP ZERO GRAVITY). Slide the old arms out and snap the new ones in — no tools needed. If the cup itself is in good condition, this is a quick, low-cost fix.
- Stop or choose another option: If the silicone sleeve is torn, permanently stained, or has lost its original feel, stop here. Replacement arms won't fix a worn sleeve. Consider buying a new FLIP ZERO or another TENGA reusable cup. Check the sleeve condition before ordering parts.
