Broken Zipper On Luggage Replacement

简介

My guide is on “Replacing A Broken Zipper on Luggage.” Have you ever gotten a brand new set of luggage, try to use it for the first time and something gets broken? This happened to me on a brand new piece of luggage that I purchased for almost $200 - after a couple uses, it was mishandled prior to reaching me at baggage claim. I was tired of having one of my these zippers, on my expensive luggage, broken. You could imagine my frustrations after realizing this was the case. Usually, the first thought is “Oh, it’s broken, I can’t use it anymore” or “I have to get a new luggage because I can’t use it anymore” but these aren't really the only option and I wanted to share that in six easy steps.

    • Use the other pair of pliers to keep the zipper in place while you remove it. It should then smoothly slide off of the slider.

Thank you. I am about to try this. A few suggestions— you say we need a screwdriver but don’t actually describe using it. It would helpful to identify the three parts of the zipper— the pull , the slider train and the stop—right at the beginning, and be consistent throughout.

Thanks for trying to help but you seem to miss out all the critical (difficult) steps. I have read the guide and still have no better idea of what to do.

what is a slider chain?

These recommendations are completely incomprehensible. I recommend a visit to the Zipper Rescue website.
