Waterproof Zips, Webbing & Trims

Outdoor Fabric Accessories & Components

Point North Profabrics supplies a comprehensive range of outdoor fabric accessories and components for manufacturing, repairs and custom projects. From waterproof zips and heavy-duty open-end zips to polyester webbing, binding tape and specialist trimmings, we stock the components needed to achieve strong, practical and professional results.

Our range is suitable for outdoor equipment, bags, clothing, marine covers, protective covers and many other technical and leisure applications.

Waterproof Zips & YKK® AquaGuard® Zipping

For applications where protection from moisture is important, Point North Profabrics stocks YKK® AquaGuard® Water Repellent Zipping and compatible components.

YKK® AquaGuard® zipping combines excellent strength and smooth operation with a water-repellent construction, making it a popular choice for outdoor applications where additional moisture protection is required.

Typical applications include:

  • Outdoor clothing
  • Jackets
  • Bags and luggage
  • Pockets
  • Outdoor equipment
  • Protective applications

We also stock components such as YKK® AquaGuard® No.5 single sliders, with different puller styles available depending on the intended application. Two sliders can also be used to create suitable opening configurations for products such as luggage.

Heavy-Duty Open-End Zips for Marine & General Covers

For larger applications, we stock long, heavy-duty open-end zips for marine and general covers. These are particularly useful where the two sides of the zip need to separate completely, such as removable panels on covers and enclosures.

Our Z10 Heavy Duty Open End Moulded Chain Zip features a heavy-duty 10mm chain with a double metal slider and is suitable for outdoor and marine applications.

Heavy-duty zipping can be useful for:

  • Marine covers
  • Removable enclosure panels
  • General outdoor covers
  • Canopies
  • Protective covers
  • Other heavy-duty outdoor applications

Zip by the Metre

For projects where a standard zip length isn't suitable, zip by the metre provides greater flexibility. It allows makers and manufacturers to create zipping to suit the dimensions of individual bags, covers, equipment and other custom products.

Point North Profabrics stocks a selection of zipping, sliders and related components, making it easier to specify a suitable combination for your particular project.

Polyester Webbing & Binding Tape

Polyester webbing is widely used for straps, handles and outdoor equipment where strength and durability are important. It can be combined with suitable buckles and hardware to create practical fastening and carrying systems.

We also stock binding tape and edging materials for reinforcing edges, covering raw fabric edges and creating a neat, durable finish on bags, covers and other sewn products.

Trims & Accessories

Our wider range includes:

  • YKK® AquaGuard® water-repellent zipping
  • Waterproof and water-repellent zip options
  • Heavy-duty open-end zips
  • Zip by the metre
