Mandala Crafts 85 Purple Nylon Zippers for Sewing 🧵

These purple nylon coil zippers come in a bulk assortment designed to keep a sewing kit stocked for repairs, alterations, and craft projects, offering a range of lengths that adapt to garments, bags, and cushions. They deliver easy hand or machine sewing with a smooth metal slider and polyester tape, making them practical for regular mending and small production runs.

Key Points

The pack includes 85 zippers in purple tones with pre-cut, pre-shrunk lengths so you can match sizes quickly and avoid repeated trimming. The coil is made of nylon which behaves flexibly in curves and on soft fabrics, and the metal slider helps maintain consistent closure performance during repeated use. These zippers wash well and, according to the manufacturer, do not bleed color, which is useful when working with light garments or mixed-fabric projects. 🧵

This assortment covers a wide size range from short openings to long closures for outerwear and upholstery. Keep in mind that while the zippers perform well on everyday textiles like cotton, denim, fleece, and canvas, they may not be the best option for very heavy-duty industrial items or extremely high-stress applications. ✂️

Usage Recommendations

Use the shorter lengths for pockets, small pouches, and craft ornaments and reserve the medium and long lengths for skirts, dresses, jackets, and cushion covers where a continuous coil zipper works best. When sewing by machine, place a zipper foot and stitch close to the coil for a secure seam, and test the slider on scrap fabric first to confirm alignment. For repairs, trim the zipper tape to the required length and reinforce the end with a few backstitches to avoid slippage.

Handle the sliders gently during installation to avoid misalignment, and allow colors to set by washing similar shades together the first few times. Because these zippers are lightweight, they are especially suited to apparel and soft furnishings rather than heavy leather goods or high-tension closures.
