You literally saved my sanity. After putting in dozens of zippers (a while back) in canvas application, I had a total brain block when converting a separating zipper slider from one pull to double pull slider. Duh. Thanks for walking through so closely and carefully for me. Well done!

I'm going to add this as a PSA since I've done some research on my own after being a little frustrated with this video in that not all zippers have the size stamped on them. The number size, in this case "5" is shown, refers to the approx. width of the zipper, measure in millimeters (mm) when the zipper is closed. Measure only to the edges of the teeth. I might add that people shouldn't be too critical of a good person trying to help others with videos like this. Besides no explanation of the zipper size, I like this video...well done.

Actually I went to the sewing shop (it's like a treasure trove of bits and pieces and sewing sundries😊) with just a photo of my busted zipper and the salesperson knew right away it was a Vislon (plastic not metal)5, apparently that's kind of standard for jacket zips😮 took it home watched this vid and done in 45 seconds.🎉🎉 BTW the zipper at the store had a V, Roman numeral five, rather than a 5 itself, on the back of the zip. 2:40

5 - slider size A - spiral type You can buy a slider №5, but with a different letter and it will not work. It is advisable to have with you a sample of a broken slider, or even better the zipper.

Can this still be done if you can’t reach the top stop or the bottom of the teeth. Our zip has broken on the baby’s “next to me” in our room but we can’t reach the top or bottom of the zipper teeth without busting the stitching potentially ruining the next to me. Any help would be appreciated..
@sewway
@sewway 3 года назад
In this case, you can rip out a pair of upper zipper teeth with pliers and insert your slider. Then wrap this void with threads For kids' clothes, such a tough option will work.

Thank you for your post. I have a question: Could you please tell me what size the brown zipper is? I have a jacket in which the slider is broken and I lost it, then I cannot check the size of the zipper. But I guess the brown zipper, which you have used in the video is like my jacket.

The most reliable way is to ask the seller at the sewing accessories store to match the slider to your zipper.

For those who need it and dont want to destroy the zipper's end. I widen one side of the zipper by inserting an edge of a fork and then twisting it until it is able to fit in the teeth thats has the thing which prevents it from falling. And then after its inserted, clamp down the zipper using your hand or pliers and you zipper is fixed.
@sewway
@sewway 2 года назад
Original way, but not desirable to do so. You weaken the pressed mold and it will not last long.
@amselby81

No, you just need to buy a new slider and set it. It is much cheaper than changing your zipper at a tailor shop.
