The COSTUMAKERS General Purpose Closed End Zipper, Style 1700 in Nugget is crafted to deliver premium performance and visual appeal for a wide range of garment applications. Utilizing a precision #2.5 nylon coil embedded within a color-matched polyester tape, this 20 cm (8 in) zipper provides the ideal balance of flexibility and strength without adding bulk. The closed-end configuration ensures a clean, secure finish at hemlines, while the nickel-free, corrosion-resistant slider offers effortless, snag-free operation through numerous wear, wash, and press cycles. Each coil undergoes solution-dyeing to achieve consistent, fade-resistant colorfastness across production runs. All materials meet CPSIA lead compliance standards and are tensile-tested beyond 20 newtons to guarantee durability in both children’s and adult attire. Seamless installation with any standard zipper foot allows the tape to lie flat within seam allowances, maintaining a professional silhouette and resisting distortion under steam or mechanical stress. Individually sleeved for protection against moisture and abrasion during transit and storage, the {color.lower()} zipper is perfect for everything from high-fashion couture and bridalwear to durable workwear and everyday casuals that demand a reliable, low-profile closure.
