Separating Jacket Hardware for Outerwear Lines
This 80 cm (31.50 in) jacket zipper features a molded tooth profile with a decorative metal-look finish. Its open-end bottom allows the two zipper tapes to disconnect, making it a candidate for coat and jacket fronts that must open completely. Choosing this item involves more than identifying the nominal length: the actual front-placket length, bottom insertion mechanism, tape shade and slider arrangement should suit the finished garment.
What Coated Molded Teeth Actually Mean
Each tooth is made in a molded plastic structure, rather than from solid metal or a continuous nylon coil. The surface finish gives an appearance that can resemble matte silver, nickel, gold or other coated metallic hardware. Metallic names describe color and finish, not the tooth core. An unverified wash-cycle, salt-spray or heat limit must not be advertised simply because the coating looks metallic. Protect the finish against unnecessary abrasion in production.
An 80 cm (31.50 in) Length Needs Pattern Checking
The zipper's stated overall length is 80 cm (31.50 in). The useful match is the finished jacket opening after hem, collar and seam allowances are considered. Zipper tape positioning also affects where the insertion piece and puller sit in relation to the placket. A ready-made separating zipper cannot always be shortened like a plain zipper chain without affecting the specialized bottom components; any modification should be verified on a production sample.
Tape Shades, Coatings and Color Availability
The catalog provides tape options including black, white, red, brick, petrol green, military green, khaki, blue, light blue, navy and pink. Not every option has positive stock; some burgundy, brown and customer-color entries show zero quantity. Tooth finishes include matte or polished metal looks, with a duplicate Matte Gold option record in the selection data. This duplication should not be presented as two different material constructions. Approve tape and coating together with the actual garment fabric.
Slider Choices Do Not Define Two-Way Behavior
Both Kancalı (hook-style) and Kombi slider option names appear in this listing. A slider moves the teeth into or out of engagement as it travels along the chain; its name does not determine the number of sliders in the assembled garment. If the jacket specification calls for two-way movement, confirm that two actual sliders and the required bottom-opening design are supplied. Do not assume two sliders merely from the word Kombi.
Sewing, Inspection and Care Trials
Keep both zipper tapes aligned while sewing the outerwear front. Excessive tension can ripple the zipper line, while bulky lining or interfacing may obstruct the slider. After sewing, verify clean insertion at the bottom, smooth motion, even tooth engagement and a straight closed placket. Test any ironing, washing or cleaning process on the actual coating and fabric instead of relying on unspecified heat or chemical-resistance ratings.
Wholesale Ordering and Comparing Other Lengths
The model is sold by piece as a completed 80 cm (31.50 in) zipper, not by the meter or yard. The minimum order is 200 pieces; catalog volume price breaks are at 500 and 1,500 pieces. If the finished pattern requires a different opening length, review separate 75 cm (29.53 in) or 85 cm (33.46 in) models rather than assuming every option is identical. Record the selected tape, finish and slider details on the purchase order.
