Use for pants, sleeves on leather jackets, purses, tents, or any application where a single slider, one-way Closed end zipper is needed.

4. Coverall:
As the name implies, this zipper is used on coveralls (overalls). One end is open and one end is closed. This zipper may be used on the legs of coveralls or used as the front zipper in coveralls.
5. Tu-Way Open End:
his Zipper has two slides and can be opened from the top and/or the bottom. Great type of zipper for heavy winter coats where more leg room may be needed for driving the car, while still keeping the top slider zipped up. The zipper halves will completely separate just like a standard jacket zipper.
