#5 COIL for UPHOLSTERY
Yardage is the best option when you are making purses & bags. Cut off what you need & save the remainder for your next purse or duffle project! The pulls are easily put on either end to meet in the middle. Some manufacturers call this "head to head".
Here is a video to show you application of 2 heads to the zipper coil:
If you are replacing cushions on a sofa, making outdoor cushions or a window seat cushion, #5 coil is the best! I have been using these #5 coil zippers in my slipcovers, cushions, upholstery for over 15 years. NEVER had the zipper break unless it was operator error.
Why #5 Coil? Much stronger than #4.5 which is what most bag patterns call for & upholsterers use.
Price is NOT how you purchase a zipper! The real cost of a zipper is the labor to install it in your project. So if you buy a cheap zipper, you really don't save money if you need to replace it because it breaks.
Of course, if you have problems I ALWAYS want to hear from you.
