White Plastic Two-Way Zip, Open-Ended – 6 mm Teeth

White two-way zip, open-ended – for jackets, waistcoats and bags

This white two-way zip with plastic teeth is an open-ended zip for jackets, waistcoats, coats, bags and outdoor clothing. You can open it from the top and from the bottom, and because it is open-ended, it opens completely.

The tooth width is 6 mm, which suits medium to heavier fabrics. The plastic teeth run smoothly when closing and opening. Choose your length from the options.

What a two-way zip is useful for

Two sliders on one zip bring practical benefits in everyday wear: on a long jacket or coat, you open the bottom a little so you can move more freely when sitting or walking, and keep the top closed. On bags, you can reach the contents from both sides. Because the zip is open-ended, you can separate it completely and also use it as a replacement when repairing garments.

Sewing it in

Pin or clip the zip to both fabric edges and make sure the edges are level so nothing puckers. Sew with a zip foot so you can stitch close to the teeth without hitting them. Press plastic teeth only carefully and never directly with a hot iron, otherwise they may warp.
