PRODUCT LAUNCH: HYDROLYSIS PROTECTED MASTERSEAL #10
The aging behavior of TPU-coated, waterproof zippers has been a significant focus of TIZIP’s product development for decades.
It has been mostly analyzed that TPU coating material failure, characterized by swelling, cracks, or delamination, is caused by aging (moisture, temperature, microorganisms, etc.), known as hydrolytic degradation processes. Despite various handling precautions contributing significantly to minimizing hydrolytic degradation, TIZIP has now developed a optimized TPU coating material that eliminates the typical aging behavior of TPU-coated zippers in the long term.
Especially in the watersports & diving sector, where waterproof zippers are exposed to constant moisture, the new MasterSeal #10 hydrolysis protection represents a significant advantage compared to conventional, short-lived products.
Q-STRAP OPTIMIZATION
As a running change, the material of the Q-Strap has been optimized in order to further improve the overall performance and quality starting March 13, 2024. The new Q-Strap tape is covered also on the edges avoiding fibers sticking out and provides an adjusted shore hardness and length. Due to the improved material and geometry of the Q-Strap, the position has been slightly adaped from 82,5 mm to to 100 mm.
NEW ZIPPER CONFIGURATION TOOL
As you may already know, TIZIP zippers can be customized with various geometries, components (such as pullers, sliders, Q-straps, etc.), and colors. To accommodate the range of configuration options, we have updated our zipper configuration tool and our article number system for your future inquiries and purchase orders.
The zipper configuration tool can be downloaded as Excel-file:
NEW ZIPPER ARTICLE NUMBERS
Based on the various zipper configuration options there’s a new article (item) number system. Please consider:
- If you do not have a new ITEM-ID, please use TIZIP’s enclosed configuration tool (excel file) for your next PO or Inquiry. The new ITEM-ID will be automatically noted on TIZIP’s quotes and order confirmations based on your individual zipper configuration.
- If you already have got a new ITEM-ID, only use this ITEM-ID for further PO’s.
In case of further questions and remarks, please do not hesitate to contact our sales team. We will be pleased to help you with.

Due to the demanding specifications of our customers TIZIP decided to improve the quality standard of the MasterSeal bottom stop based on the comprehensive technological expertise of our highly qualified specialists and engineers. The modification of the new bottom stop “V8” is characterized by two small cavities on the front and back side instead of the previous half-cycle notch. Based on this innovative design modification the processing as well as the performance of the bottom stop is more reliable and tight.
