Any tips for installing zipper pulls?

Zippers are often used in daily life, especially zippers on clothes and pants, which are used most frequently. In addition, girls often carry backpacks when going out, and the zippers on bags are also used very frequently. In this process, it is inevitable that the zipper will break. If the damage is serious, it is necessary to replace the zipper with a new one. So how do you install a new zipper?

There is a trick to install the zipper head:

Many clothes in daily life have zippers. Zippers make life convenient, but they also bring troubles... They are easy to break. So what should we do when a zipper breaks?

First, use pliers to pull off the top big tooth of the zipper, and pull both sides.

Then pull the zipper lock to the top and merge the teeth on both sides together.

Then put the zipper lock in (it is somewhat difficult because the diameter of the metal zipper is relatively thick. If it really cannot be put in, cut a small hole in the diameter. Remember, do not cut where the big teeth are installed, but cut near the top, otherwise the big teeth cannot be installed)

After the zipper lock is put in, install the big teeth and everything will be OK

If the chain is not opened and closed smoothly, if you pull the chain head hard, it will cause tooth engagement failure. At this time, apply paraffin or lubricating spray [Zipper Partner] to the surface and inside of the teeth, then move the slider several times and it will slide easily.

If you really don't know how to do it:

When opening and closing the zipper, sometimes the chain head bites the thread segment or fabric and the slider cannot be pulled. If you forcefully pull the slider, the bite will get deeper. You should push the slider back while untying the fabric. When it is fully bitten in, do not pull the slider with force, but slowly pull it back. Also, do not leave any hidden dangers when sewing the zipper.

The zipper pops open after being zipped

This problem is caused by the slider being pulled for too long and its diameter becoming larger. If you want to solve it temporarily, just use pliers to clamp the tail of the slider. Note that it is the tail, but be careful not to use too much force or clamp it off-center. If you want to solve it completely, you have to replace the slider. Most shoe repair shops will replace the zipper for just one or two dollars.
