Product Overview
A #5 plastic zipper (often referred to as a resin or Vislon zipper) features individually molded plastic teeth melted directly onto a durable fabric tape. The #5 gauge size indicates that the closed interlocking teeth measure approximately 5 mm to 6 mm across, making it the most versatile, medium-duty zipper profile available.
- Key Characteristics: Lightweight, rust-proof, smooth-gliding, and highly resistant to weather and corrosion compared to metal alternatives.
- Common Applications: Widely used on medium-to-heavy outerwear (jackets, coats, fleeces), sportswear, backpacks, luggage, sleeping bags, and outdoor gear where snag-free operation and moisture resistance are essential.
- Available Styles: Comes in various configurations, including closed-end (for bags and pockets), open-end/separating (for coats and jackets), and two-way separating.
