How to Repair A Separating Zipper?

The zipper is a connector that can be opened and closed repeatedly and the chain teeth can be meshed with each other. It can be divided into metal zipper, resin zipper, plastic zipper and so on according to the different materials. Chain teeth are of different sizes and shapes. The zipper slider is also widely used as a tool and decoration. The working principle of the zipper is very simple, that is, the two zipper belts can be opened and closed at will by the action of the zipper puller.

But in our daily life, we often encounter the fabric bags zipper or nylon pants zipper that can't zip. This has brought a lot of trouble to our life. So, how to repair a separating zipper?

1. If the zipper puller is loose, we can squeeze it back and forth with forceps and other instruments. Be sure to control the strength in case the zipper puller is damaged.

2. If it is the problem that the zipper slider cannot be stuck, that is to say, after the zipper is pulled up, it slides down by itself. It's better to replace the zipper slider with a new one.

3. The zipper puller is a fragile thing. Some people say that zipper repair does not need technology, just to pry the puller and clamp it. Otherwise, regardless of the quality of the zipper, if you don't distinguish the type of zipper, it's definitely impossible to repair it. It is also impossible to pry the puller apart, because the puller is generally made of alloy, which is vulnerable. After prying, the quality is difficult to guarantee. The only accurate way is to remove the zipper slider from the top. If it doesn't crack, we can replace it with the same type of zipper. If it is separating, we can use an old zipper to close it firstly and then change it into a good zipper.

4. We often see that the thread of the fixed teeth of the closed end metal zipper is broken due to long time grinding. As for the small damage, we do not propose to change the zipper, just repair it. First of all, we can use a 30-35mm fine needle to put on the tapestry thread and fix the teeth one by one on the cloth. After that, we should sew along the inclination of the teeth to ensure that it is no longer waxed and evenly pulled.

Aluminum zippers are more susceptible to corrosion, so they should be kept dry to prevent the teeth from forming a white oxide. We also need to be careful not to come into contact with alkaline and acidic substances. If the zipper cannot be pulled up after getting wet, we should firstly put the zipper in the sun, and then put some wax on the zipper teeth.
