YKK VISLON® AquaGuard® 5VS Water-Resistant One-Way Separating Tooth Zipper, 78 cm, Black

One-way separating water-resistant VISLON® AquaGuard® 5VS zipper from YKK. Strong and easy to use. Matte black polyurethane (PU) coating on the right side of the zipper tape and matte black slider. Total width of the molded teeth 6 mm.

Great choice for waterproof jackets. PU coating on the zipper tape eliminates the need for multiple flaps but a simple flap protects from abrasion and prevents pressurized water seeping through.

VISLON® AquaGuard® tooth zippers slide more easily and are easier to operate than corresponding coil zippers. Thus they are less prone to misuse and malfunction and can handle more strain than thin coil. However, for curved applications, coil zippers are a better choice.
