Zippers and Slides
Upholstery Zippers For Cushions and Pillows
Use our size 3 for decorative pillows and use our size 4.5 zippers for cushions. They are strong. The last thing you want to do is replace a zipper for a customer because it breaks open. Every inch is laser inspected for any faults and all faults are removed. Sliders easily back on. Click on a zipper size and you can read tips to get sliders on.
How to install the slider:
There are two ways to easily put the slider onto the zipper.
Upholstery zipper Size #3:
Split the zipper tape (pull it apart) and slide the slide onto one half of the tape. Tuck the other end into the front of the slider and just pull the slider up the tape. May take a bit of a tug.
Upholstery zipper Size #4.5:
You can use the same method as above or this other method. Cut the length of tape you need and back the zipper onto one end. While pulling both sides of the tape (trying to pull it apart) continue to press the slide down onto the tape. The tape will eventuallly pull apart and allow the slider on.
