Divisible Spiral Zipper YKK Cobalt (918) 50CM

Divisible Spiral Zipper YKK Cobalt (918) 50CM Nylon

This zipper catches the eye right away with its bright Cobalt blue colour, a shade that hovers between royal blue and indigo and holds its own beautifully on any fabric. The spiral teeth are finely and evenly woven, delivering smooth, nearly silent movement as you zip up and down. The silver-toned slider bearing the recognizable YKK logo gives the zipper a sturdy, quality appearance that you've come to expect from this brand. Because the zipper is fully divisible, you can completely separate both sides from each other, which is handy when sewing or using it in garments that need to open all the way.

What is a divisible spiral zipper

A divisible spiral zipper consists of two separate tooth tapes with a spiral-like structure, made of plastic. Thanks to that spiral form, the zipper runs smoothly and flexibly, without snagging, even on curved seams. The divisible nature means the bottom of the zipper can be completely separated, unlike a regular zipper that stays joined at the bottom. This makes it ideal for garments where you want to fully separate the two sides, such as jackets and vests. The nylon version remains lightweight and soft to the touch while maintaining its strength.

Applications and projects

This Cobalt blue divisible zipper is a real workhorse for projects where you need full opening capability. Think of:

• Summer jackets and windbreakers with a fresh blue accent colour

• Bags and backpacks with a large fold-down front opening
• Sportswear and outdoor jackets
