1、Designation:D365703(Reapproved 2021)Standard Specification forZipper Dimensions1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3657;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parenthes
2、es indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification establishes standard dimensions forzippers of all materials for specified size designation;forequivalency,in inch-pound and metric units,of

4、h the standard,each system shall beused independently of the other,and values from the twosystems shall not be combined.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priat

9、ering requirements of the zippersbased on their normal end-use.5.3 Table 2,within a size,has uniform plus tolerances.Minus tolerances increase nonuniformly with increasing lengthbecause that is accepted trade practice based on the require-ments of the end products in which the zippers are installed.
10、5.3.1 Because zipper chain is composed of a series ofelements with a prescribed pitch and each element must remaincomplete to function,it is impossible to manufacture a zipperdeliberately to an exact stated length.Therefore a shipment ofzippers of a stated length will not likely average the statedle
11、ngth.Both the lot average length and the length of individualzippers should fall within the tolerances in Table 2.5.4 Table 4 shows the metric conversion for standardinch-pound unit tape end lengths.Tape end length tolerancesare not shown due to widely varying end-use requirements andinherent zipper
