What is a divisible spiral zipper

A divisible spiral zipper has a tooth band made of plastic wound in a spiral shape, instead of individual metal or plastic teeth. This makes the zipper smoother to use and lighter in weight than a standard coil zipper. The divisible feature means you can completely separate the two halves at the bottom, something you can't do with a regular zipper. This makes it suited for garments you want to open completely, like a vest or jacket. The nylon composition provides a durable, slightly elastic band that holds up well to frequent use.
