At Asahi Fastener, we mainly handle WALDES zippers, along with buckles, rings, press fasteners, eyelets, buttons, and hooks. Zippers can be selected to suit the design, from metal materials such as nickel silver and brass to tape materials such as cotton and polyester.
Nickel silver is a silver-white alloy whose main components are copper, zinc, and nickel, and it is used for the teeth of metal zippers. Cotton is suitable when you want to make use of its absorbency and soft feel against the skin, while polyester is ideal when strength, dimensional stability, and quick-drying properties are important. Two way separator zippers are suitable for outerwear and other items that need to open and close from the hem side as well. For attaching press fasteners and eyelets, choose a setting tool for crimping the parts.

QIs it possible to purchase only the slider for WALDES zippers?
You can purchase them only if they are to be attached to WALDES zippers purchased from us. Please contact us via the inquiry page.
QIs it possible to change the top stop of the WALDES zipper to a box stop?
It is possible. When placing your order, please write in the remarks field which zipper you would like to have the top stop changed to a U-shaped stop. An additional charge will apply due to the change. We will inform you separately of the payment for the price difference.
QIs 1P of Asahi Fastener’s Neoba Button supplied as one set?
Yes, it is supplied as one set with shank.
QI selected Lead Time Priority (custom production), but what does custom length processing from longer stock mean?
As for zipper inventory, products other than 2CHC concealed zippers are not stocked in the exact length you specify. For made-to-order production, we can process a longer zipper to make it, which shortens the delivery time but increases the unit price. If you want it processed from longer stock and need it right away, please select "Delivery priority (higher unit price)."
The article below is about coil zippers, but it also explains zipper inventory.

Among them, the antique gold zipper, with its very attractive zipper teeth color, can be used for outerwear and bags.
Also, recently it has become trendy to add design features to outerwear with two-way zippers, and since this zipper is vintage yet visually appealing in design, I recommend it.
However, care is needed when post-processing after sewing the zipper.
(We recommend not applying strong processing!)
Why not try using this zipper, which lets you feel the charm of vintage details such as the changing color of the zipper teeth over time?
