Wetsuit Zipper Repair
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 гру 2013
- Often times the zipper on a wetsuit doesn't work because the zipper slider either breaks off, jams, or doesn't connect the teeth. The FixnZip is a replacement slider that requires no tools and no sewing to install. More information at www.fixnzip.com/

I just installed one. Works like a charm. Ya if you have a chest zip buy a medium. The large is for back zip. Glad I read the comments before buying.
Totally worth it!!
I’ve just repaired the zipper on my wet suit in 5 minutes. Highly recommended.
Got one of these today. Large. Works perfectly on my wetsuit. Easy to put on. What a great little device!
Just used on an O’Neill front zip wetsuit. Works a treat ❤. The zip size was stamped on the back of the old zip that had broken.
I was a bit sceptical at first, but after getting the right size large that fits number 10 zipper head, it was so easy to mount and it works perfectly. Managed to fix my o Neil hammer wetsuit front zipper without too much trouble.
Sweet! Got it delivered. Wetsuit back in action and ready for some fun waves in Ireland!
@Roymurray how long did it take to deliver to Ireland ?
You just saved me $200, THANK YOU!!!
I can't thank you and your dad enough!! WOW I was skeptical at first, called and spoke to Ray I believe and it WORKS!! I called a scuba repair center and they quoted $60 to $120 to replace the kipper. Thanks so much!! I do need the long cord though, any idea where to get that?
So glad it worked well for you! Unfortunately I don't have any good suggestions for where to get a longer wetsuit cord, but you might check out sites that sell wetsuit or surf accessories.
wow gonna order now, think my suit will last till summer
Large worked on my wetsuit very well, had a hard time getting it started, turned the suit inside out and the pull went right on. Local dive store wanted 500.00 dollars to repair and 6 week turnaround.
So glad it worked well for you!
Hey man I bought this at my local dive shop and with the help of this video I got it 1st try. Cool shit bro 😘
So glad it could help!
If this works, its ingenious! I want one!
It doesn’t
where can I find this zipper?
Where i can get one of these?
how can I purchase these
how do I replace just 1 side of zipper? just 1 side has pulled out while pulling up zipper...its not broken, just pulled out on 1 side
I managed to repair my wetsuit zip with this! The only thing is that opening and closing works as long as I hold on to the slider, when I use the pull string the teeth seem not to be completely aligned and I can't close it. Any solutions for that?
Will it work it one tooth is broken?
Hi A Lico,
It's really good about going around missing teeth. On a wetsuit, since there;'s so much tension, it can come undone if you have several teeth missing.
Ordered just got doesn’t work!
The large didn't work on my chest zip it doesn't pull the teeth together enough so they don't interlock
I'm sorry to hear that. You can definitely send it back for a full refund. It's also possible that a chest zipper might use a medium, where a most of the back zippers use a large. Feel free to drop us a line on the website www.fixnzip.com
I had the same issue
Check the size of the zip - it’s stamped on the back of your zip that broke
What if your missing teeth?
Just ordered the is and the only regret is that I didn’t order it last week. .
Its a cool idea but if the teeth are broken you have to buy a new wetsuit
Couldn't get the L to work on my wetsuit. Looks easy on just the neoprene strip he uses but on an actual wetsuit w the inner and outer neoprene zipper flaps, there's literally no way I could see to line anything up So instead of getting a new board, gotta buy a new suit 😡.
No way for this thing .....not even close to working on my wet suit back zipper!!
