N5 / #5 Nylon Zipper Chain Trial Set for Workshops – 20 m / 65.62 ft + 10 Single-Pull Sliders ST-T10T-NAYLON-20M10C

A #5 zipper-chain trial set for broader sample work

This N5 / #5 nylon zipper chain trial set supplies 20 m / 65.62 ft of continuous zipper tape together with 10 single-pull sliders. It is useful for workshops that need more flexibility than a short sample pack, but do not yet need a higher-volume production supply.

The set can support prototype development, small batches, zipper replacement tests and multiple bag or case designs. Instead of relying on ready-made zipper lengths, the workshop can cut each zipper run around the actual working opening of the product.

Measure the functional zipper route, not the full product edge

Measure from the point where the zipper begins operating to the point where it needs to stop. The outside perimeter of a bag, case or organizer may include sections that are not part of the actual zipper route.

Account for seam allowance, lining thickness, gusset depth, edge binding, corner turns, zipper guards and the planned end treatment. For repair work, place the new zipper chain along the intended seam before cutting; old zipper lengths may not be reliable final templates.

Why this set uses single-pull sliders

The included sliders have one pull tab positioned on one side of the slider body. This configuration suits closures normally operated from one main face, such as bag openings, case lids, organizer pockets and textile pouches.

Single pull refers to the pull-tab position, not to a one-way zipper movement. A product that needs practical access from both sides may require a different slider configuration. The pull-tab arrangement should match the way the completed item will be opened and used.

Check chain-slider fit before preparing final lengths

The N5 / #5 size reference is useful for product selection, but it does not automatically guarantee fit across every nylon, molded plastic or metal zipper construction. Test one included slider on a short section of the exact zipper chain before cutting multiple production lengths.

The slider should travel smoothly, close both chain sides evenly and leave no visible opening behind it. If it binds, closes unevenly or leaves a gap, stop before sewing the zipper into a finished item and confirm the chain-slider match.

Before sewing the zipper chain

• Run one supplied slider on a short sample of zipper chain.
• Keep both zipper tapes straight and evenly aligned during sewing.
• Allow clearance for lining, binding, gussets and reinforced sections.
• Confirm the intended opening direction before installation.
• Finish both chain ends so the slider cannot leave the planned zipper route.

Moving from sampling to regular production

This set is intended for trial work, repeated small runs and early product development. Once the zipper size, pull-tab configuration and sewing method have been confirmed, a standard production set or separate tape-and-slider stock may be more practical.

For comparing the wider zipper family, use the zipper types collection. Workshops that prefer to plan tape separately can use the compatible N5 / #5 nylon zipper tape.

Custom zipper requests

For a custom zipper request, provide the required tape length, zipper size, tape color, pull-tab configuration, estimated quantity, intended product type and any reference sample. These details help match the chain and slider setup to the real product requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a ready-made zipper in one fixed length?

No. It is continuous N5 / #5 zipper chain. The workshop cuts each zipper length to match the finished product.

Are sliders included?

Yes. The set includes 10 single-pull sliders with 20 m / 65.62 ft of nylon zipper chain.

What does single pull mean?

It means the slider has one pull tab on one side of its body. It does not mean that the zipper travels in only one direction.

Can this be used for bags and cases?

Yes, when the zipper channel, product structure, fabric thickness and expected use are suitable for an N5 / #5 nylon zipper system.

Are end stops included?

The listed set content is zipper chain and sliders. The required end finishing should be selected according to the final bag, case or cover design.

Will this zipper chain make a bag waterproof?

No. This is standard nylon zipper chain and should not be described as waterproof or water-sealed. Water protection depends on the complete product construction.
