YKK #5 Nylon Zipper, Open End (Separating) – Pack of 100

YKK #5 open-end nylon zipper: the jacket zipper

The #5 separating nylon coil zipper is the one used in most jackets and outerwear. Its coil is heavier than a #3, so it stands up to daily use, while staying lightweight, flexible and quiet; it suits thick and padded fabrics and does not rust in the wash. The separating end (box and pin at the bottom) lets the zipper open completely. Made by YKK, the world's leading zipper brand, it runs smoothly for years.

What is it used for?

• Jackets: light jackets, windbreakers, bomber jackets and anoraks.
• Coats and puffer jackets: winter outerwear, parkas and pea coats.
• Hoodies and gilets: zip-up hoodies, fleeces and gilets.
• Workwear: work jackets, uniforms and technical garments.
• Other uses: sleeping bags, fully opening covers and costumes.

Lengths and packaging

Available in every length from 40 cm to 80 cm, in 1 cm steps (40, 41, 42… up to 80 cm). It is an open-end (separating) zipper: it splits into two halves when opened. If you need a zipper that stays closed at the bottom (bags, cushions, skirts), choose a closed-end zipper. Each pack contains 100 units of the same colour and length, and the price shown is for the whole pack. Ideal for workshops, manufacturers and shops.
