Although there are many types of clothing zipper, such as Rhinestone Zipper, Waterproof Nylon Zipper, Fashion Jeans Zipper, etc., their basic structure and working principle are similar. Today we take the Metal Brass Zipper as an example to understand its structure.

The Metal Fashion Zipper is the same as plastic zippers,nylon zippers in the working process. The composition of the Long Chain Brass Zipper is also composed of a tape, a microphone, a slider, and a limit code. The material of the cloth tape is generally a fiber tape, a cotton woven tape, or a polyester fiber tape. Different materials can be selected according to different purposes.

Metal Jeans Zippers are divided according to size: 3 #, 4 #, 5 #, 7 #, 8 #, etc. The size of the zippers varies according to the size of the teeth. Because it is often used in jeans, jackets and backpacks, its zipper size is relatively large. Divided according to type: closed zipper, open zipper (detachable), double closed tail zipper (X- zipper and double slider opposite two ends or O- zipper and two sliders opposite to each other), double open tail zipper (Remove)

Metal Zipper tooth chain: refers to teeth arranged continuously;

Metal zippered toothed belt: The toothed chain is fixed on the cloth tape called the toothed belt;

Top stop of metal zipper: It is fixed on the chain belt and stops the slider from pulling out the chain belt when the chain is closed;

The bottom stop of the metal zipper: it is fixed on the fastener chain, and the slider stops the fastener chain from pulling out when the fastener chain is pulled out, so that the two sides of the fastener chain cannot be completely separated;

Front and rear heads of metal zippers: The tape without the element on the zipper is called the head, the top end is the front head, and the bottom end is the back head;

Metal zipper cannula (also known as latch): fixed at the tail end of the open zipper, used to completely separate the tubular pieces of the chain;

Metal zipper socket: fixed at the end of the open zipper, used to completely separate the square pieces of the chain;

Double-opening tail stopper for metal zipper: a tube-shaped stopper for double-opening tail zipper that cooperates with intubation;

Because the color of the microphone teeth on the metal zipper is electroplated, if not properly stored, the microphone teeth will turn black and cause contamination to the clothing. For copper alloy microphones, oxidation is easy to occur. Therefore, during storage, ensure a certain degree of ventilation. Do not store it in a sealed or humid environment. Use moisture-proof paper or dehumidifier if necessary.
