Blue Two-Way Plastic Zip, Open-Ended, 6 mm Teeth

Blue Two-Way Zip – Open-Ended, with Plastic Teeth

This blue two-way zip is open-ended and has plastic teeth. You sew it into jackets, waistcoats, coats, bags or outdoor clothing when the fastening needs to open from both the top and the bottom. Choose your length from the options.

Thanks to the open-ended design, the zip can be opened completely, which is handy on jackets and coats. The plastic teeth close and open easily. With a tooth width of 6 mm, it suits medium to heavier fabrics.

Inserting the zip

Pin or tack the zip in place before sewing so that both fabric edges stay the same length and nothing puckers. Sew as close to the teeth as possible using a zip foot. Measure the opening of your garment beforehand and choose the length to match.

What is the two-way zip suitable for?

With two sliders, you can open jackets, waistcoats and coats from the bottom as well, for example when sitting. On bags, you can reach the contents from two sides. Because of the 6 mm tooth width, it is better suited to medium to heavier fabrics than to very fine ones.
