Zippers, Zipper Chain

Types of Zippers We Offer

Coil: These zippers form the bulk of the sales of zippers world-wide - the classic zipper. If you look closely at these zippers, you will notice that the slider runs on two coils on each side. The "teeth" on this zipper are coils.

Metallic Zippers: These zippers are the zippers we see in jeans today. The teeth are not a coil - they are individual pieces of metal moulded into shape and set on the zipper tape at precise uniform intervals. Our Aluminum zipper 4-200 and 5-100 are this type.

Plastic Moulded: These zippers are just like metallic zippers - but the teeth are plastic instead of metal. This is because the plastic can be dyed to the color of the garment - and looks natural. These are usually seen in marine canvas, jackets and sleeping bags and backpacks.

Separating or Open Ended Zippers: These zippers use a "box and pin" mechanism to lock the two side of the zipper into place. Used where you want the materials to come completly apart such as a jacket. Separating zippers are bought in different lengths and can be cut down to the exact size needed. Open Ended Zippers can be of any of the above specified types
