Chunky zips

[nickjb]

Does anybody out there know where I can buy big, chunky, 'scuba style' plastic zips in the UK?

Thanks
Nick

How many do you need? I've got a pile of them in my tool box. I'll send you some if you pay for the postage.

That sounds good.

I've PM'd my email address to you. Hopefully we can work something out.

For a few bucks I got a container from Wal-Mart with 650pc cable ties. A good 40 of them are SCUBA-sized.

Or, order something from reefscuba.com, and they'll throw in a few for free

Some confusion here

I am looking for zips... the kind you might have on a BC pocket or on a divebag. Not zip-ties.

Maybe you americans call these things something different so I apologise for any confusion.

I would like to buy a few large plastic zips in the UK... any ideas.?

Ah, Sorry, this side of the Atlantic we call those "zippers."

Hmmm... I thought of zipper right away, must be because I have a few friends in the UK.
Check with your local upolstry shop, cobbler, or a place that makes tents & awnings.
YKK seems to be the favorite brand.
