What kind of zippers is the strongest?

To adapt to different products and usage occasions, many types of zippers have been designed and developed on the market. For the introduction of zipper types, we have mentioned them in our previous articles for those who are interested, so what will we discuss in this article? This is one of the zipper issues that many people are concerned about. That is, which kind of zipper is the strongest? Although I don't know what friends who are curious about this question want to do with their zippers, to ask which kind of zipper is the strongest, as a professional zipper manufacturer Delux gives you the answer - heavy-duty zipper.

 

What is a heavy-duty zipper?

Heavy duty zipper, it's not just a random name. It got that name because it's very strong and durable. Heavy-duty zippers are #10 zippers, meaning the teeth are about 10 mm (about 1/2 inch) wide when zipped up. They are oversized, wide zippers stronger than the medium-weight #5 zippers (5 mm wide/approximately 6 inches). If you are interested in a heavy-duty zipper style, you can contact Delux, and our sales staff can show you pictures of the style and give you a detailed description.

 

Applications of heavy-duty zippers

Heavy-duty and industrial zippers are designed to replace zippers in coats, work jackets, tents, canvas, sleeping bags, duffel bags, military bags, and other applications requiring extra-strength zippers.

 

When you repair a jacket or bag with a suitable replacement zipper, you can extend its life and have more years of use.

 

Custom Materials for Heavy-Duty Zippers

Options for zipper teeth for heavy-duty zippers include brass, antique brass, nickel, aluminum, and molded plastic. The strongest is nickel, followed by antique brass and brass. Aluminum is a very lightweight metal, so it may be a good choice when the item's total weight needs to be minimized, but you still need a heavy-duty zipper. Zippers with molded plastic teeth are often used for boats and marine applications.

 

Custom Zippers

If you want to customize zippers, you can do so in one of two ways.

• One is that you have already designed your zipper, and you submit your design to Delux, we will first determine if your design is feasible for direct prototyping, and if it is, we can prototype it for you once we have determined the materials and processes to be used. If it is not applicable to direct production, our professional designers will communicate with you about the modifications needed and determine a good modification plan.

• If you have not yet decided on the zipper design, you can tell us your ideas and needs, such as what products to use, what scenes to use, what quality level you need, etc. Our professional design team will design a suitable zipper style for you and carry out sampling and production according to your ideas.
