ZIP / ZIPPER OPEN END/SEPARATING 24", 60cm, YKK MADE IN CMS , INCH SIZE IS AN APPROXIMATION    No. 5 WEIGHT (TEETH APPROX 5mm WHEN CLOSED) AVAILABLE IN RED AND WHITE STANDARD PULLER   YOU CAN BUY SPURIOUS, UNBRANDED ZIPS FOR LESS IF YOU ARE PREPARED TO REPLACE THEM LATER. I LEARNT MY LESSON A VERY LONG TIME AGO.

OPEN END MEANS THAT THE ZIP OPENS INTO TWO SEPARATE PIECES AND IS USED FOR JACKETS, CARDIGANS, HOODIES ETC.   With care it is possible to shorten these zips with surprisingly little loss of blood using long nosed pliers to remove the top stop, then the required amount of teeth, same each side, then replacing the top stop after opening it out a little and squeezing on with the pliers,
