About this item
- HOW TO CHOOSE SIZE: (See Video) Start by checking the back of your broken zipper slider; most zippers have a size number (1-10) embossed on the back of the slider. Once you know your zipper size, our sizing chart below will determine which FixnZip is right for you. If your zipper doesn’t have a number on the back, you can simply measure the width of the zipper teeth in millimeters or inches.
- SIZE GUIDE: Small Zipper Slider: Teeth and Coil Sizes 1-4, Medium Zipper Slider: Teeth and Coil Sizes 5-7, Large Zipper Slider: Teeth and Coil Sizes 8-10. Don't know your zipper size number? Measure Teeth / Coil Width: 1 to 4. 5 mm or 0. 04 to 0. 18 in = Small, 5 to 7. 5 mm or 0. 19 to 0. 30 in = Medium, 8 to 10 mm or 0. 31 to 0. 40 in = Large
- SMALL WORKS ON ZIPPER Sizes 1-4, Examples pants, skirts, fine garments, cushions, clutch handbags. MEDIUM WORKS ON ZIPPER SIZES 5-7 Examples jackets, sleeping bags, tents, purses, duffel bags, golf bags. LARGE WORKS ON Zipper Sizes 8-10, Examples wetsuits, boat covers, canvas tents, heavy duty clothing, jeep windows
- NO TOOLS OR SEWING REQUIRED: FixnZip isn’t your average zipper repair kit. It’s a replacement zipper slider that you can install without tools or sewing.
- REPAIR MOST ZIPPERS EASILY (MUST SELECT CORRECT SIZE THOUGH): Use size guide to determine proper size Fixnzip. Apparel, Backpacks, Tents, Boats, Marine, Sleeping Bags, Purses, Jackets, Pants, Bags, Luggage, Wetsuits, and More. Works on Open-End, Closed-End, and Invisible / Watertight Zippers.

- vjExcellent, High Quality, Little Product!! Very Easy to InstallHaving already tried another zipper repair kit from Amazon that was a total disaster, I was reluctant to try another one. However, I really did not want to discard my costly, heavy duty. tactical packback just because a zipper for a side pocket had broke off.
After a little more research on Amazon, I decided on the FixNZip even though it was pricey. But I figured that the higher price was becaue it's a metal zipper head instead of a plastic one. The fact that Amazon disclosed that it's a FREQUENTLY RETURNED ITEM did not inspire my confidence. However, detailed reading of many reviews gave me enough confidence to give it a try. I wasn't disappointed. The Fix-N-Aip zipper head is high quality and durable.
The directions were easy to follow and straight-forward. My backpack side pocket zipper is the water-proof type. So and as per the directions, I needed to flip the zipper head upside-down before installing it. Apparently, I measured the zipper width correctly because the zipper sides slipped into the Zip-N-Fix zipper head and the zipper teeths engaged perfectly with little effort. I followed the direction to tighten the zipper head and seated the zipper head firmly at the bottom. It took two very short slides up and back to firmly seat the zipper sides inside the zipper head. Then and to my surprise, I was able to easily pull the zipper head all the way to the top of the pocket without any problems. I immediately repeated full open and close for a dozen times with no problems or failures!! The zipper did not split open when I pulled hard on the side of the pocket.
Some of the reviewers noted that it doesn't last long. I hope mine will prove them wrong. If not, I will update my review accoudingly.
Thank you Fix-N-Zip for extending the life of my tactical backpack!!
I definitely recommed this product! - Amazon CustomerExceptional Customer Plus Quality ProductFIXNZIP® ISN'T YOUR AVERAGE ZIPPER REPAIR KIT - and that's an understatement! I was amazed at how incredibly easy this was to install. It fits any zipper perfectly and looks so sleek you'd never know it was a repair. The quality and appearance are outstanding.
But what truly blew me away was their exceptional customer service! After my purchase, they actually called me back to check in, and then offered to FaceTime with me to walk through the installation step-by-step. They made sure everything was installed correctly and working perfectly. This level of care and attention is virtually unheard of these days!
FixnZip has saved my luggage I thought were destined for the trash. Thes universal zipper repair solution works flawlessly on nylon coils, plastic, and metal teeth.
The product exceeded my expectations, but the customer service experience took it to another level entirely. Highly recommend - you won't be disappointed! - Neuro1FixnZip saved a treasured inflatable costume and backpackVery easy to use product that has fixed multiple items and the fixes have held! I bought this multipack to repair an inflatable costume zipper and it worked flawlessly and as described (the smallest zipper worked well on the narrow costume zipper. Additionally, the costume has been inflated multiple times and the zipper has held in the air and continued to work.
Since I had the medium and large sizes I decided to try them on my favorite backpack in which the front inlaid zipper is broken and no longer zips. I started the medium FixnZip in the middle of the zipper as shown in the demo video and it fixed my backpack compartment.
Overall FixnZip zippers feel like solid metal products and with a short instructional video have been easy to use. - Ross MendelIt works with my O'neill Wetsuit, but you have to pull the zipper very slowly or it gets screwed upI've surfed a few times now with this replacement zipper and it's working great! The old zipper had been having issues, and it eventually pulled right off when it was stuck and I was trying to unzip it. The FixnZip arrived quickly, and it took a little fiddling with to figure out how properly attach it, but I had it working in about 10 minutes. The action felt a little stiff and it worried me, so I ordered "Gear Aid Zipper Wax Lubricant Stick for Wetsuits and Drysuits" and rubbed that on the zipper teeth, and that seemed to make the zipper a bit smoother. So now the zipper works better than it had in awhile with the old zipper. Oh, and a tip to move the zipper pull cord to your new zipper. Cut the old plastic zipper pull to remove the pull cord/string and put it on the new zipper (see instructions that show how to open it).
UPDATE 1: Turned out I only got a few sessions with the FixnZip until I had problems. I wore my wetsuit surfing yesterday and didn't realize until I was paddling out that the zipper was entirely open, even though I had no issues zipping it closed. So before I went surfing today, I re-attached the FixnZip, made sure it moved up and down smoothly when I wasn't wearing it (I added more zipper lubricant, and also found I had to loosen the screw a little bit, or it got stuck), but then when I put on the suit to surf and pulled up be the zipper, it was entirely open again after pulling it up. The wetsuit isn't very tight or anything, so I don't know what to think at this point. I don't know why it worked a few times and then stopped working.
UPDATE 2: My rating has gone from 5 stars, to 3 to 4. I decided to try the FixnZip on my wetsuit again, but now I'm super careful when I zip up my suit, which is a little difficult with a back zipper, but I basically just go as slowly as I can. So I've had 3 successful surfs now that I'm very careful while zipping up my suit.
I also sent FixnZip an email asking if they had suggestions related to my issue and it's been a week and they haven't responded.
