YKK #45 Nickel Zipper Tape

The two-yard length is exactly what I needed for a custom bag project, and the zipper teeth mesh smoothly without any catching.

Cut the 2-yard length in half to make two jacket zippers, and the nickel finish held up through a full wash cycle without any tarnishing or stiffening. The tape itself is dense and sturdy, so it sewed cleanly without bunching on my machine.

Swapped out a broken zipper on my heavy canvas bag and this #45 tape worked perfectly with the matching stops and slide. The 2-yard length was just enough for the project with a little leftover.
