Description
Light grey is so pale that beside white it makes hardly any contrast. On mottled fabrics this fastener nearly disappears. Its length is 20 cm. That is tooth length; the tape above it disappears into your seam allowance.
3 mm of coil width — narrow enough for fine wovens, strong enough for the slider to grip securely. Insert it with a zip foot, so your seam runs close beside the teeth. On bags it pays to sew the fastener in while the pieces still lie flat — afterwards your machine reaches that seam less easily.
What Closed-End Zip 20 cm Light Grey is suitable for
- Trousers and skirts, because only an opening should part there.
- Rucksacks, because a fixed stop takes strain.
- Sewing folders and tool rolls, because this fastener holds the contents.
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
Which presser foot do I need?
A zip foot. It runs beside the teeth rather than over them, so your seam comes close enough without the foot riding up and the stitching wandering.
How do I care for the finished piece?
Close the fastener before every wash. The tape then will not distort and the teeth cannot catch in other laundry. Never press directly over the slider.
Do I need two sliders?
Closed-end fasteners carry one, and that suffices — two sliders only make sense on long, separating fasteners, such as coats you want to open from the bottom.
How far should the topstitching sit?
About three to five millimetres beside the teeth. Too close and the slider brushes your seam; too far and the fabric throws a ripple over the tape.
