Generally, if the insertion pin or box pin (the other half) of the zipper is missing, you should replace the zipper. However, I have found that if an old (or new) zipper that has an insertion pin that will fit the box and slider of the zipper being repaired, carefully remove the pin, align it on the tape portion at zipper bottom, crimp it tightly with pliers, add a drop of super-glue and let dry for 15-20 minutes. You now have a repaired zipper. This works on metal insertion pins only. Plastic zippers cannot be repaired this way.
