Where Is a 53 cm / 20.87 in T6 Crocodile-Tooth Sweatshirt Zipper Used?
A 53 cm / 20.87 in T6 crocodile-tooth molded plastic sweatshirt zipper is used on front-opening sweatshirts, hoodies, children’s jackets, short cardigans, vests and light outerwear products.
The open-end separating bottom allows the two zipper tapes to separate fully, making it suitable for garments that open completely from the front.
Crocodile-Tooth Appearance
The crocodile-tooth molded plastic form has a more pronounced tooth appearance than a standard molded plastic zipper. It creates a stronger and sportier zipper line on the finished garment.
53 cm / 20.87 in Length
The 53 cm / 20.87 in length can be used for children’s jackets, short hoodies, short cardigans, vests, sports tops and light jackets with short or medium front openings.
Before selection, the real garment opening length should be checked together with neckline, bottom hem, rib thickness and seam allowance.
Open-End Separating Structure
This product has an open-end separating structure. It is suitable for jackets, hoodies, sweatshirts, cardigans and vests where the front part must open fully.
For trousers, pockets, skirts or fixed-bottom applications, a closed-end zipper should be selected instead.
T6 Molded Plastic Zipper Type
The T6 molded plastic structure is suitable for sweatshirts and light outerwear products where a visible zipper tooth line is preferred.
Sewing and Replacement
During sewing, both zipper tapes should be aligned evenly at the neckline and hem. Stretching the tape too much during sewing may cause waves on the front panel.
For replacement, the old zipper should be measured from the top stop area to the bottom separating box.
