Nylon zippers are a type of zipper, consisting of nylon monofilament wrapped around a central line through heating and molding. Zipper types are categorized into three main groups based on material: metal zippers, resin zippers, and nylon zippers. Metal zipper teeth are made by copper or aluminum wire through a toothing machine, resin zipper teeth are produced from polyester plastic granules colored with dye and extruded through injection molding machines, and nylon zipper teeth are formed by wrapping nylon monofilament around the central line with heat and molding. Compared to metal and resin zippers, nylon zippers offer lower costs, higher production volumes, and wider popularity.
Nylon zippers are versatile for various applications, but they are generally preferred for sportswear, footwear, bedding, luggage, and tents.
