50 cm / 19.69 in (#3) Nylon Closed-End Zipper for Cardigans, Vests and Outerwear, Brown ZPS0050T5K

What Is a 50 cm / 19.69 in Type 5 (#3) Nylon Closed-End Zipper Used For?

A 50 cm / 19.69 in Type 5 (#3) nylon closed-end zipper is used for cardigans, vests, sweatshirts, fleece garments, light outerwear, textile accessories, pockets and fixed-bottom openings.

The optical white color creates a clean closure line on white, ecru, cream, light grey, pastel and other light-colored fabrics.

Where Does the 50 cm / 19.69 in Length Work Best?

The 50 cm / 19.69 in length can be used in children’s and adult cardigans, vests, fleece garments, sweatshirts, light outerwear, sports tops, half-zip openings, large pockets and auxiliary textile compartments.

This length offers a longer closure area than short pocket zippers while keeping the zipper in the closed-end zipper group.

Closed-End Zipper Structure

A closed-end zipper has a fixed bottom end. When the zipper is opened, the left and right zipper tapes do not separate completely.

This structure is practical for half-zip sweatshirts, fleece garments, fixed-bottom cardigan details, vest pockets, outerwear pockets, textile cases and auxiliary compartment closures.

Use in Cardigans, Vests and Light Outerwear

In cardigan and vest production, this zipper is better suited for fixed-bottom openings or half-zip designs rather than fully separating front closures.

It can also be used on fleece garments, sweatshirts, light jackets, children’s outerwear, sports tops, front pockets, side pockets and auxiliary openings.

Optical White Color

The optical white color gives a clean and bright look on light-colored garments and accessories. It can be matched with white, ecru, cream, light grey, pastel blue, pastel pink, light beige and similar fabric tones.

When the zipper remains visible on the finished product, optical white helps create a simple and consistent closure line.

Type 5 (#3) Nylon Zipper Structure

Type 5 (#3) nylon zipper structure is preferred for light and medium-weight textile products where a flexible closure line is needed.

Nylon teeth feel lighter and softer than metal teeth, making them practical for cardigans, vests, fleece garments, sweatshirts and light outerwear designs.

Difference from a Separating Zipper

This product is a closed-end zipper. When fully opened, the two zipper tapes do not separate from each other at the bottom.

For fully opening jackets, coats, parkas, cardigans or vests, an open-end separating zipper should be selected. This product is better suited for fixed-bottom cardigan, vest, sweatshirt, fleece, pocket and auxiliary closure areas.

Use in Workshops and Repairs

This zipper can be used in small workshop production, boutique sewing, hobby sewing, repair work, replacement zipper applications and made-to-measure textile projects.

When choosing the zipper, the real closure length, fabric thickness, bottom-end structure, color match, tooth type and sewing line should be evaluated together.
