Canvas and Zippers

[ogalili]

I am looking for Riri zippers. Does anybody know where to get them?
And yes I know YKK took over the state, however, I am still looking for Riri.
I have them for over 10 years and they are doing great work for me.

If you're talking about the Riri brass ones (or nickel ones) they're nice if you don't get seawater on them. Do you know what size you need? and color tape? I have a source for them and while I haven't put them up in the Schooner Chandlery, I have access. Send a PM on it and I can get you a price

I have tried
Sailrite is only doing YKK

sailmakerssupply dot com may have them

I believe the thing is: Riri is still in business, they just don't ship to the US. Try also European suppliers who may be able to help you

[ogalili]

I will try
Thank you

Ogalili,
Just did a quick look at Amazon.com and they have a lot of Riri product available. Not sure if any of this is what your looking for, but ...

Thanks ,
I was looking at those.
Non of the are wise 8, black , molded (plastic) etc. as state above for what I am looking for.
It looks like that no one is bringing them to the state any more.
So I am looking to see, id=f any one has found a location that still import them, or still have stock.

Sorry I didn't subscribe to this thread! I'll send your spec on to my supplier and see what they've got. Don't know why you can't PM me. I'll go look at that now.
