37 cm / 14.57 in N5 / #5 Nylon Coil Jacket & Vest Zipper – Separating ZPHSN0037T10

This 37 cm / 14.57 in N5 / #5 nylon coil jacket and vest zipper is designed for garments that need a fully opening front closure. It works well in short jackets, bomber-style outerwear, vests, children’s coats, lightweight outdoor garments, and other projects where the zipper must separate completely at the bottom.

The zipper may be a small part of a jacket, but it has a major effect on the way customers use the garment. A zipper that engages easily, lies flat through the front seam, and keeps both sides aligned can make an outerwear item feel more reliable, more comfortable, and more carefully finished.

Separating Construction for Jackets and Vests

This is an open-end separating zipper. Its bottom separator allows the left and right zipper tapes to detach completely. That makes it appropriate for jackets, vests, hoodies, and garments that should open all the way rather than remain connected at the hem.

For pants, skirts, pockets, bags, pouches, and other fixed-bottom openings, use a closed-end zipper instead. Choosing the wrong zipper end type can affect the usability of the finished product even when the length and color are correct.

37 cm / 14.57 in for Short Outerwear Openings

The 37 cm / 14.57 in length can be suitable for short coats, cropped jackets, bomber styles, vests, children’s outerwear, and medium-length front openings. It may be too short for many adult full-length coats, so always measure the actual zipper opening before making a selection.

Check the neckline, front placket, hem, rib trim, lining thickness, seam allowance, and front-opening position. Selecting the zipper according to the actual pattern opening helps the garment stay balanced and easier to wear.

N5 / #5 Nylon Coil Structure

This zipper is listed as Tip 10 in Turkish product naming and N5 / #5 nylon coil for the English market. Nylon coil teeth and polyester tape provide a flexible garment zipper construction for many outerwear projects.

N5 / #5 works well when the zipper should be visible and practical without looking as rigid as a large molded zipper. For heavily padded coats, heavy workwear, or collections where bold teeth are a major design feature, compare molded or other heavier zipper constructions before production.

Brown, Black, and Gray Tape Choices

Brown 292 supports natural, tan, camel, brown, and khaki garment colors. Black 322 can create a cleaner match with black, charcoal, navy, and darker outerwear. Gray 529 is useful for technical, sporty, gray, and cool-toned color palettes.

A matching tape color keeps the front closure quieter, while a contrasting tape can make the zipper a visible styling feature. Compare the tape with the shell fabric, lining, drawcords, rib trim, pocket details, labels, and other hardware before finalizing production.

Sewing Notes for a Cleaner Front Closure

Align both zipper tapes at the neckline and hem before sewing. The two front panels should meet at the same level when closed. Keep excess seam thickness away from the separator so the bottom connection can engage and release smoothly.

For padded vests, lined jackets, stretch fabrics, quilted outerwear, or multi-layer garments, create a sample before production. Check that the zipper does not cause rippling, twisting, front-edge distortion, or an uneven hem.

Custom Jacket Zipper Options

Nylon coil jacket zippers can be developed with other lengths, tape colors, puller styles, dual-slider systems, branded zipper pulls, and collection-specific specifications. Share the garment type, target zipper length, desired color direction, estimated quantity, and any reference sample for a custom production review.
