How to choose YZIP® products

YZIP® is a metal zipper for jeans. It opens and closes by interlocking the metal teeth attached to the left and right tapes with a slider. The teeth are thicker than those of standard metal zippers, improving strength.

The teeth are available in tombac (red brass), aluminum, and nickel silver. The tapes are available in polyester and cotton-polyester union fabric, and for items that undergo washing processes such as one-wash, you can consider YZIP®, which is advantageous for washing processes.

Customer reviews mention smooth opening and closing, ease of handling, and use on pants and jackets.

This introduction was written by AI based on product data, reviews and the ApparelX Wiki.

Frequently asked questions

QI selected Lead Time Priority (custom production), but what does custom length processing from longer stock mean?
As for zipper inventory, products other than 2CHC concealed zippers are not stocked in the exact length you specify. For made-to-order production, we can process a longer zipper to make it, which shortens the delivery time but increases the unit price. If you want it processed from longer stock and need it right away, please select "Delivery priority (higher unit price)."

The article below is about coil zippers, but it also explains zipper inventory.
https://apparelx-news.jp/apparel-material/zipper/coil-fastener
QI want to place an order for a color or slider that is not listed on the product page. What should I do?
If you enter your preferred color and slider in the zipper memo field when placing your order, we will make the change and arrange it for you.
QHow should I choose between sliders with locks and without locks?
You can determine this from the second letter of the slider product number.
“A” = automatic lock (the slider locks automatically when you let go of the pull tab, and unlocks when you pull the pull tab)
“F” = non-lock (a slider with no locking function, regardless of the position of the pull tab on the body)
“N” = notch lock (a notch is attached to the shoulder of the body, and it locks when opened by bringing the chain against the shoulder)
“W” = reversible (pull tabs are attached to the front and back, so it can be opened from either side)
“U” = reversible (an automatic slider with one pull tab that can move along the rotating rail and can be opened and closed from either the front or back.)
QIs it possible to order only the slider for a YKK zipper?
Basically, we are unable to accept orders for sliders only, but it is possible to arrange them if they are ordered together with a chain zipper or used for a zipper previously purchased from APPARELX.
In that case, please contact us via the contact form on the Support Page with the type and size of the YKK zipper you purchased, the slider color, the slider product number, and the quantity. We will reply after confirmation.
QI would like to order a two way separator zipper with different sliders on the top and bottom. How should I do that?
If you note the desired upper and lower sliders in the zipper memo field when placing your order, we will change them to the sliders you want and arrange the order accordingly.
