Coil Zipper Standard

A spiral zipper is a type of fastener whose teeth are made of continuous synthetic thread twisted into a spiral and secured to a tape. Unlike tractor or metal zippers, spiral zippers are flexible, lightweight and have a smooth movement. YKK manufactures these products in compliance with the strictest quality standards. The company offers a wide range of spiral zippers, but the classic model is a universal solution suitable for everyday wear, bags, sports equipment and other textiles.

Advantages

1. High quality materials

YKK uses high-strength polyester in production, which is resistant to wear, moisture and ultraviolet radiation. The spiral is securely attached to the tape, which ensures durability even with intensive use.

2. Smooth running

One of the key advantages of spiral zippers is the smooth and stable running of the slider. Thanks to the precise geometry of the spiral and high-quality fittings, the fastener does not jam, does not bite the fabric and is easy to open / close.

3. Versatility

The spiral zipper is available in various lengths, colors and designs. This makes it a universal solution for both lightweight clothing and heavy-duty items such as backpacks, jackets, tents and canopies.

4. Resistance to deformation

Unlike cheap analogues, the YKK fastener does not deform even after repeated bending or washing. It retains its shape and functionality throughout the entire service life of the product.

5. Support for sustainability standards

YKK pays attention to ecology and sustainable development. The production of fasteners is carried out using environmentally friendly technologies and meets international safety standards such as OEKO-TEX® Standard 100.
