Description

A clear white with no cream cast. On white or pale fabrics it stays discreet; on dark ones it turns into a design element. 60 cm runs the whole back of an evening dress. On mattress and upholstery covers it is the length that lets the cover open completely.

A coil zip of 3 mm on a tape in 100 % polyester. Because plastic is lighter and more flexible than metal, the coil can be rolled open as you sew — which is what lets your seam sit close enough to the teeth. Shorten it from the top: cut, 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.

What Invisible Zip 60 cm White is suitable for

Evening dresses, because this opening runs the whole back.
Costume pieces, because that seam still looks closed.
Covers for guest beds, because the cover comes off completely.

Sewing tips

Ein spezieller Nähfuß für nahtverdeckte Reißverschlüsse ist praktisch Pflicht — er rollt die Spirale auf und führt die Naht direkt darunter.
Der Verschluss wird eingenäht, BEVOR die Naht darunter geschlossen wird. Das ist umgekehrt zum normalen Reißverschluss.
Vor dem Nähen die Spirale mit dem Bügeleisen auf niedriger Stufe flach ausrollen, dann kommt die Naht nah genug an die Zähne.
Beide Seiten von oben nach unten nähen, nicht gegenläufig — sonst verzieht sich die eine Seite gegen die andere.
Am unteren Ende so weit nähen, wie der Fuß kommt, dann den Rest der Naht mit normalem Fuß schließen und die letzten Zentimeter von Hand verriegeln.
Bei dehnbaren Stoffen ein schmales Formband oder Vlieseline in die Nahtzugabe legen, damit die Kante gerade bleibt.
Zum Waschen schließen und nicht direkt über den Schieber bügeln.

Frequently asked questions

Should I press the coil first?

It helps a great deal. Roll the coil flat with an iron on a low setting, then your seam comes close enough to the teeth and the fastener disappears fully into the seam.

Can I shorten it?

From the top yes: cut it off, 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.

How do I care for the finished piece?

Close the fastener before every wash, so the tape will not distort and the teeth cannot catch in other laundry. Never press directly over the slider.

What is it made of?

Its tape is 100 % polyester and the coil is plastic too. That makes it lighter and more flexible than a metal fastener — exactly what an invisible seam needs.
