Sliders and Closures are integral components of cut unit zippers, available in an array of types and lengths to suit diverse applications. The Slider, meticulously engineered to glide smoothly along the zipper chain, plays a crucial role in the seamless opening and closing of the zipper teeth, ensuring functionality and ease of use. Meanwhile, the term ‘Closure’ distinguishes how the zipper unit is finished; it can be closed at one end, ideal for dresses and pants where a secure end is necessary, or at both ends, typically used for pockets, ensuring items are safely contained. Alternatively, a separating closure is designed for jackets and other garments requiring a full opening.
The hook and loop fastener, a revolutionary invention by Georges de Mestral in 1949, has stood the test of time, becoming an indispensable component in a multitude of applications. This ingenious fastening system, inspired by the natural clinging of burrs to fabric, has evolved beyond its initial conception to become a staple in both everyday items and advanced industries. Dunlap Industries proudly embraces this legacy of innovation by offering an extensive selection of hook and loop products, designed to meet the diverse needs of our clients. From simple household uses to complex industrial applications, our hook and loop fasteners are crafted for superior performance, durability, and ease of use.
