YKK® AquaGuard® Water Repellent Finished Zipper #10 Black
Details
Details
YKK® AquaGuard® Water Repellent Zippers are a practically waterproof zipper with great strength and smooth operation. A metal single pull non-locking slider and metal starter box/pin are included. The polyurethane coating (shiny outer surface) increases water repellency but reduces the flexibility of this coil zipper. Because of this, AquaGuard zippers are not recommended for projects with curves. AquaGuard zippers are perfect for outdoor applications requiring moisture protection or an airtight seal.
Finished zipper lengths can be shortened easily by cutting the end that is last closed. Secure top stops or a piece of vinyl fabric over the zipper teeth so that the slider cannot be pulled off.
AquaGuard YKK zippers come with a single pull slider which can only be opened from one side (jacket style). The number 10 zipper has teeth roughly 0.415 inches (7/16") wide when closed.
Pro Tip: Due to the waterproof vinyl coating applied to the zipper tape, the AquaGuard Water Repellent Zipper is not flexible enough to turn a tight radius.

Not for smiley windows!
by Wind Dancer
Do not use for smiley Windows!! I made that mistake thinking it would be a more waterproof installation. The zipper must be installed facedown vs face up for the slide to work, not very practical for smileys. Most importantly, these zippers do NOT stretch around curves!!! I am reordering the regular coil zipper and hope I have some later use for this strange zipper.
Great Company to work with!

Replaced a similar type zipper on a drysuit and it works great, Was able to put the suit on and submurge my body in water and it didn't leak IT does what I expected I am happy with my purchase!
