45 cm / 17.72 in N5 / #5 Nylon Coil Jacket & Bomber Zipper – Separating ZPHSN0045T10

This 45 cm / 17.72 in N5 / #5 nylon coil jacket and bomber zipper is designed for outerwear with a medium-length, fully opening front closure. It can be used in bomber jackets, short coats, vests, lightweight jackets, youth outerwear, and other garments that need the zipper tapes to separate completely at the bottom.

Customers notice a jacket zipper every time they fasten a garment, take it off, or layer it over another piece. A zipper that stays aligned, closes smoothly, and lies flat through the front seam makes the garment feel easier to wear. For this reason, zipper length, end type, tape color, and sewing construction should be selected as carefully as the outer fabric itself.

Open-End Construction for Full Front Opening

This is a separating, open-end zipper. The bottom separator allows both zipper tapes to detach completely, so the garment can open all the way from the neckline to the hem. This construction is suitable for bombers, jackets, vests, hoodies, and other open-front outerwear.

It should not be used for pants, skirts, pockets, bags, pouches, or other products that need a fixed lower end. Those applications require a closed-end zipper with a bottom stop.

45 cm / 17.72 in for Bombers and Short Coats

The 45 cm / 17.72 in length can be a practical choice for bomber jackets, short coats, vests, and medium-length outerwear openings. It may not suit every adult jacket, so measure the actual zipper placement before ordering.

Check the neckline, front placket, hem, rib trim, lining, seam allowance, and pocket position. A zipper that matches the finished opening helps the garment close more evenly and reduces the risk of a distorted front seam or uneven hem.

N5 / #5 Nylon Coil Construction

This zipper is described as Tip 10 in Turkish product naming and N5 / #5 nylon coil for the U.S. market. It uses nylon coil teeth with polyester tape, creating a flexible zipper construction for outerwear and garment sewing.

N5 / #5 is useful when you need a visible, practical zipper line without the rigid appearance of a chunky molded zipper. It is a suitable option for many jackets, bombers, vests, and lightweight coat styles. For very heavy padded garments or collections that require bold molded teeth, compare heavier zipper structures before production.

Black 322 Tape for Clean or Contrasting Styling

Black 322 tape works naturally with black, navy, charcoal, dark gray, dark green, and similar outerwear colors. On light fabrics, it can be used intentionally as a contrast element that gives the front opening a sportier, more graphic look.

For a more cohesive finish, compare the zipper tape with the shell fabric, lining, ribbing, drawcords, pockets, logos, snap fasteners, buttons, and any visible metal details. Consistent color choices can make even a simple outerwear piece feel more polished to the customer.

Sewing Guidance

Before sewing, align both zipper tapes at the neckline and hem. The front panels should meet at the same level when the zipper is closed. Keep bulky seam layers and thick lining away from the lower separator so it can engage and release without resistance.

For lined bombers, padded vests, quilted jackets, stretch garments, and multi-layer construction, make a real sample before production. Check for zipper rippling, twisting, uneven hem placement, or tension around the bottom separator.

Choosing Another Zipper When Needed

Choose a closed-end zipper for fixed-bottom openings such as pants, skirts, pockets, bags, and pouches. Choose an invisible zipper for dresses and skirts where the closure should blend into the seam. Choose a molded zipper when the design calls for a stronger, chunkier, or more visible tooth structure.

For a shorter jacket opening, compare a 37 cm / 14.57 in open-end nylon coil zipper. For a slightly longer opening, a 47 cm / 18.50 in separating zipper may be more suitable. Select the final length according to the finished front opening rather than the total garment length.
