{"title":"YKK Coil Zips","description":"\u003ch2\u003eYKK coil zips for volume production\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYKK coil zips are the workhorse of the brand – invisible to the shopper, but critically important to the manufacturer. In a run of thousands of garments, any unevenness in the coil or variation in the slider means a stopped line, rework or returned goods. The original YKK coil zip is valued precisely for its consistency: size, tape, slider and colour follow a standardised specification. Polkom supplies original YKK coil zips to garment factories, brands and ateliers in Bulgaria and the EU; we are not a manufacturer of YKK zips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the YKK coil zip is built\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain is a continuous spiral of nylon or polyester monofilament stitched to the textile tape. YKK uses the term coil for this group. The construction is light, flexible and quiet in use, bends around curved openings and does not weigh down thin fabrics. YKK coil zips are also the basis of the Conceal line of \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/ykk-invisible-zippers\"\u003einvisible zips\u003c\/a\u003e, but in the classic version the coil remains visible on the face side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etrousers, skirts and dresses in volume production;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003esweatshirts, light jackets and sportswear;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ebags, backpacks, toiletry bags and cases;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003echildrenswear, where a light, flexible zip is needed;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ehome textiles – cushion covers, throws and mattresses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to include in the specification\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo receive an accurate quote for YKK coil zips, prepare the following details:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecoil size – No. 3 and No. 5 are the most common, with No. 8 and No. 10 for heavy products;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etype – closed-end, open-end or two-way;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efinished zip length;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etape colour number from the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/ykk-zipper-colour-card\"\u003eYKK colour card\u003c\/a\u003e;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eslider type – auto-lock, non-locking, double-sided or with a decorative puller;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eapproximate quantity and planned production date.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe same colour in every order\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYKK's big advantage with coil zips is its colour system. When you specify a number from the card, the next order for the same model will be in the same shade, even months later. For brands with recurring core styles, this saves time on colour approval every new season. If you do not have a card, send us a fabric swatch and we will select the closest standard colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLead times and availability\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard sizes and popular colours are sometimes in stock, but YKK coil zips in a specific length and colour are usually made to order. Lead times are on request and depend on the specification and quantity.
