FAQs

What is the length of each zipper?

Each zipper is 18cm long.

What colors are included in the pack?

The pack includes Black, Blue, White, Grey, and Brown zips.

Are these zips suitable for heavy-duty use?

These zips are suitable for general use in clothing and accessories. For heavy-duty applications, consider a more robust zipper type.

Do I need any special tools to install these zips?

You'll need basic sewing tools such as a needle, thread, and a sewing machine (recommended) or the ability to sew by hand.

How do I choose the correct zipper size?

Measure the length of the zipper you are replacing. These zips are 18cm. Ensure the new zipper is the correct length for your project.

Can I use these zips on leather?

Yes, but you may need a heavy-duty needle and thread, and the fabric must be able to support the zipper.

Troubleshooting

Zipper doesn't slide smoothly after installation.

Check for obstructions such as loose threads or fabric caught in the teeth. Use a bit of lubricant such as a dry graphite pencil on the teeth.

Zipper pulls apart after installation.

Ensure that the zipper is sewn in securely and that the fabric is not pulling on the zipper. Reinforce stitches if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Compatibility: These zips are compatible with most fabrics, but ensure the fabric's weight and type are suitable for the zipper's intended use.
  2. Installation: Installation requires basic sewing skills. Remove the old zipper, position the new one, and sew it in place using a sewing machine or hand stitching.
  3. Care: After installation, avoid excessive strain on the zipper. When washing items with the zips, close them to prevent snagging on other items. Iron with low heat, avoiding direct contact with the zipper teeth.
