#5 Reverse Coil Separating (Jacket) Zipper

The #5 reverse coil separating zipper is a medium-weight reverse nylon coil zipper with an invisible look. Reverse coil zippers are also sometimes designated as "RC" zippers. The teeth face the inside rather than the outside of the zipper chain, making it ideal for outdoor apparel. Reverse coil zippers are commonly used on jackets that require protection from the elements, such as ski and outdoor jackets.    This zipper features an auto-lock slider with a Q pull, which is larger than a standard pull and allows for easy gripping (perfect for when wearing gloves!) or the attachment of a pull tab or fabric swatch, if desired. The larger pull can also be helpful for those with arthritic conditions.    These zippers separate at the bottom, jacket-style. These are one-way zippers (they have one slider).   This zipper is left-handed when worn (slider is on the left).   Note: these are not true invisible zippers. The structure of these zippers is merely a #5 nylon coil zipper, flipped around, so the teeth are facing the inside rather than the outside of the zipper chain. This is also known as a reverse coil zipper. You cannot sew all the way to the teeth, however, you get an invisible look.
