#5 Nylon Zipper Chain Kit for Bag Makers, Cases & Repair Shops – 200 m / 656.17 ft + 100 Sliders ST-0009T10-200M100C

Build zipper runs around the actual bag or case opening

Bag makers and repair shops often work with products that do not use a standard zipper length. Tool cases, travel organizers, storage covers, sports bags, pouches and equipment cases can all have different zipper paths. This #5 nylon zipper chain kit gives you 200 m / 656.17 ft of continuous tape plus 100 sliders so the zipper can be prepared around each real opening.

It is a practical stock solution for businesses that make or repair multiple items over time. Instead of keeping large numbers of ready-made zipper lengths, the workshop can create the necessary zipper run during cutting and sewing.

How to measure a zipper replacement or new zipper run

Measure from the point where the zipper begins operating to the point where it needs to stop. Do not measure the overall outside edge of the bag or case unless that full edge is the working zipper route. Gussets, lining, binding, seam allowance, zipper garages, corner turns and reinforced panels all affect the final tape length.

For a repair job, place the new zipper chain along the intended seam before cutting. Old bags may have stretched materials, shifted linings or previously altered zipper paths. A quick trial fit can prevent cutting a zipper run too short.

Why 100 sliders matter in high-volume work

The 100 included sliders are intended for workshop-level production planning. A simple pouch may need one slider, while a long equipment case or access panel may need two. Plan slider allocation alongside tape use so the workshop does not run out of sliders before the tape supply is fully used.

Record each item’s zipper length, required quantity, opening direction and slider count. This approach helps bag makers and repair shops control material use across several customer orders or production batches.

Before sewing the zipper tape

• Install a slider on a short sample section and test movement before cutting the final tape length.
• Keep both sides of the zipper tape straight and evenly tensioned during sewing.
• Account for lining thickness, binding, gusset depth and reinforcement materials.
• Confirm whether the bag or case should open from the left, right, top or side before installation.
• Use an end finish that prevents the slider from moving beyond the intended zipper route.

When to select a different zipper construction

This is a #5 nylon zipper chain system. A different option may be needed when the product requires a smaller zipper size, molded plastic teeth, metal teeth, water-resistant TPU-coated tape or a finished ready-length zipper with specific end construction.

The zipper should be matched to the product’s fabric thickness, zipper channel, use frequency, load level and finished appearance. A zipper that is too large can create unnecessary bulk; a zipper that is too small can be unsuitable for the intended opening.

Related stock options for workshop planning

For a lower-volume supply, the #5 nylon zipper chain set with 100 m / 328.08 ft and 50 sliders can suit smaller production schedules.

When your workshop needs to review or purchase compatible slider types separately, use the zipper sliders category to compare available slider options before ordering.

Custom zipper production

For custom zipper production, send the target tape length, zipper size, tape color, slider configuration, estimated order quantity and a bag, case, cover or sample reference. These details help match the zipper construction to the actual product and production method.
