Description
A mid blue with no green cast — the colour between pale and dark blue that combines with either. 18 cm — that length is measured without the tape running into the seam above and below.
That continuous coil measures 3 mm. Unlike separate metal teeth it forms an even line and runs silently. For cushion covers, make the opening at least half the cushion width — otherwise the insert only goes in with a struggle and the corners stay empty as you fill it.
What Closed-End Zip 18 cm Mid Blue is suitable for
- Trousers and skirts, because only an opening should part there.
- Dresses fastening at the side, because that seam stays calm.
- Seat cushion covers, because the cover comes off for washing.
Sewing tips
- Die angegebene Länge ist die Zahnlänge, nicht die Bandlänge. Für den Schlitz im Schnittmuster zählt die Zahnlänge.
- Reißverschlussfuß verwenden und die Naht knappkantig neben den Zähnen führen.
- Zu lange Verschlüsse lassen sich kürzen: oben abschneiden, neuen Anschlag mit Handstichen setzen und das Band in die Nahtzugabe einschlagen.
- In Taschen den Verschluss vor dem Zusammennähen der Seitennähte einsetzen, solange die Teile noch flach liegen.
- Bei dünnen Stoffen ein Stück Vlieseline unterlegen, damit die Kante nicht ausreißt.
- Metallausführungen nicht bügeln; die Spitzenvariante nur von links und mit Tuch.
- Zum Waschen schließen. Offene Zähne verhaken sich in Maschenware und ziehen Fäden.

Frequently asked questions
Can I shorten it?
From the top yes. Cut it to the length you need, fold the tape into your seam allowance and set a new stop with a few hand stitches. From the bottom you cannot — that is where the fixed stop sits.
Does it suit trousers?
Yes — for trousers and skirts a closed-end zip is exactly right, since it should not open fully there. Just make sure the length matches the opening in your pattern.
The slider sticks — what helps?
Usually fabric or a thread is caught between the teeth; ease it out rather than forcing it. If it still runs stiff, a little candle wax on the teeth helps.
How does it look tidy inside?
A facing or lining covers the tape. Without either, finish your seam allowances with overlock or zigzag beforehand, or they fray beside the tape.
