The COSTUMAKERS General Purpose Closed End Zipper, Style 1700 in Lavender combines sophisticated design with enduring performance for versatile garment applications. Featuring a precision #2.5 nylon coil woven into a matching polyester tape, this 23 cm (9 in) zipper provides exceptional tensile strength and smooth glide without adding bulk. The closed-end system offers a clean, secure finish at hemlines, while the nickel-free, corrosion-resistant slider ensures hassle-free operation through repeated wear, laundering, and pressing. Each coil undergoes solution-dyeing to maintain consistent, fade-resistant color across production runs. All components are CPSIA lead-compliant and tensile-tested above 20 newtons to guarantee reliability in both children's and adult garments. Installation is seamless with any standard zipper foot, laying flat within seam allowances for a polished silhouette, and resisting distortion under steam or mechanical stress. Individually sleeved for protection against abrasion and moisture during transit, the lavender zipper is ideal for bridal, formalwear, couture, and everyday fashions demanding both visual appeal and lasting durability.
