Abstract
A device to replace a broken section of zipper. The present invention includes a track with an inner surface and an outer surface. A plurality of teeth are disposed along the inner surface of the track. A groove extends across the outer surface of the track and creates an inner volume in the track. The inner volume is configured to receive the teeth of the broken zipper section therein. Flanges that extend from an upper portion and a lower portion of the track into the groove help to secure the track in place. Further, a stop at an end of the track is used to attach the zipper replacement device to the material containing the broken zipper.
