YKK is the originator of zipper industry and represents the industry standard. Due to Japan's sophisticated technology, raw materials and management methods, the price of YKK is about 10 times that of other brands of zippers. Currently, YKK
Still the largest market share owner in the zipper industry. Because of their irreplaceable good qualities. Because of the high price and the large amount of zippers, most backpacks are reluctant to use YKK zippers. But the pursuit of perfect vertical limit certainly can't have any regrets on the product.
YKK is not a top brand, but the quality is good, and the quantity is relatively large, and there are quite a few imitations. Just identify it. As long as a good dress has a fake zipper, that dress must be fake. Generally speaking, there will be no problem if you pay attention to the following aspects:
1
Generally, real YKK clothes are used, which are exquisite in workmanship and more expensive than ordinary brands. If YKK is used for very cheap clothes, it may usually be fake. The clothes sold in big specialty stores usually use real YKK.
2
If YKK zipper is used in good outdoor clothing, the main zipper of the clothing is generally self-locking (that is, the kind that the landlord said, except that the pull tab is movable, the cover part connected with the pull tab is also movable; Regarding the self-locking mode, there will be pictures later), pockets and internal zippers generally do not have self-locking devices. If the main zipper of a garment has no self-locking device, it may be fake.
three
Technically speaking, the real YKK has thick materials, smooth appearance and beautiful printing (both concave and convex), while the fake YKK fonts have everything, blurred printing, or thin strokes, uneven pressure and obvious processing defects. There are many factors involved in the surface coating problem, which is difficult for beginners to distinguish, so I won't say much.
four
If it is genuine YKK, besides YKK, there will be other relevant information, and there will be small Y or YKK steel seal on the key parts, which is very standard. Fake ones are generally only YKK, but good imitations also have relatively complete printing.
five
The teeth of real nylon, resin and invisible YKK zipper are not easy to be seen by naked eyes, so it is best to distinguish them from the pull tab. Metal teeth are very different. YKK uses square tooth technology. All the dentures I have seen are round teeth, but square teeth are not unique to YKK. Now domestic manufacturers have begun to apply the technology of square teeth.
