What is a Invisible Zipper used for?

The Invisible Zipper is one of the most used fastening techniques. Invisible Zippers are made up of chain teeth, Sliders, restriction codes (front and back codes) or locking pieces. The chain teeth are the key part, which directly determines the side pull strength of the Zipper. Generally, Invisible Zippers have two pieces of chain tape, each with a row of chain teeth, and the two rows of chain teeth are staggered with each other. Invisible Zippers are mainly used in down jackets, denim, leather jackets, high-end jackets and cold-weather clothing. Compared to nylon and resin Zippers, they are stronger and more costly, and are mostly used on jeans, jackets and rucksacks.
