Abstract

A nylon zipper has two fastener structures. Each fastener structure has a plurality of nylon gripper elements. Each nylon gripper element has at least one side including a concave portion. A seaming wire for seaming the zipper to a cross strip is embedded in the concave portion. Thereby when pulling a pull head, the seaming wire will not rubber the cross strip. Moreover, a threaded rod device of a nylon zipper comprises two parallel threaded rods. Each threaded rod has threads. One of the threaded rod has a plurality of tips arranged in recesses between each two threads for forming concave portions and convex portions on nylon gripper elements of the fastener structures of the nylon zipper at the same time.
