Structure of a Zipper

Different Types of Zippers

• Coil zipper(also known as nylon zipper):Coil zippers are a popular lightweight zipper. The texture of the teeth is a lot more subtle than the plastic or metal zipper teeth which may make it a good choice for bags and pockets where you don’t want your zipper standing out
• Plastic zipper:Molded plastic zippers have the teeth molded and melted directly onto the zipper tape. The shape of the teeth makes them a bit stiffer than the nylon zippers. It's the most cost-effective option, great for hildren’s clothing, tote style bags and more.
• Metal zipper: Metal zippers are very durable but heavier than the others. They are perfect for heavy-duty coats, duffle bags, and leather projects. But the slider doesn’t move as smoothly up and down the teeth as the other two, especially when compared to the coil.
• Invisible zipper:The teeth of an invisible zipper are on the backside of the zipper. These are commonly used in formal wear and many styles of dresses, and sometimes used on bags for styles.
