Collection FAQs

What are open end zips used for?

Open end zips, also known as separating zippers, are designed to fully separate at the bottom. This makes them ideal for garments like jackets, hoodies, and coats, where you need to completely remove the garment or allow for easy wear and removal. They are also useful for bags and other projects requiring a full opening.

What types of open end zips does Lincraft offer?

Lincraft offers a variety of open end zips, including heavy duty options for durability, chunky styles for a bolder look, and nylon zips for flexibility. You can find separating zippers in various lengths and colours to suit your specific project needs.

Are these zippers suitable for heavy duty projects like canvas bags?

Yes, our collection includes heavy duty zippers specifically designed for robust applications. These are excellent choices for projects involving canvas, such as bags, outdoor gear, or upholstery, ensuring strength and longevity.

Can I find long open ended zips?

Our range includes open end zippers in various lengths to accommodate different project sizes. Whether you need a standard length or a longer option, you can explore our selection to find the right fit for your garment or accessory.

What is the difference between open end and closed end zippers?

The key difference lies in their function. Open end zippers separate completely at the bottom, allowing two sides to be pulled apart. Closed end zippers have a bottom stop that prevents them from separating fully, making them suitable for trousers, skirts, and cushions.

Do you stock reversible zippers?

Yes, we offer reversible zip options within our open end zips collection. These provide added versatility, allowing the zipper to function effectively from either side of the garment or project.
