Zip-On (VNH) Infographic
  • PVC-coated nylon fabric is military grade with meeting Mil-C-20696 / Mil-PRF-20696, Type II, Class 2
  • Pressure track closure offers ability to quickly install and access components as needed
  • The 7” diameter option has a National Stock Number (NSN) for easy procurement

Zip-On® (VNH) combines a military-grade jacket with a strong pressure track closure. The VNH jacketing is made of a nylon fabric with a flame-retardant PVC coating. The jacketing material meets Mil-C-20696, Type II, Class 2, making it a perfect choice for military and aerospace applications. The jacketing is also waterproof and abrasion resistant, which allows Zip-On® (VNH) to excel in harsh environments.

The Z-Track pressure track allows for easy re-entry to components due to its wraparound design, and it can be closed with our ZTZ-SP Plier tool for quick and easy installation. Z-Track is extruded from a flame-retardant PVC material. Its closes by utilizing an arrowhead-and-channel interlocking system that is heat sealed (RF sealed) to the VNH jacketing for a secure, long-lasting combination. 

Zip-On® (VNH) is offered for diameters ranging from 0.375”to 7”, with the 7” diameter having an NSN; we also offer custom sizes upon request. Zip-On® (VNH) has an operational temperature range of -4°F to 171°F (-20°C to 77°C).

Zip-On® (VNH) is available with National Stock Numbers (NSN). This designation ensures that Zip-On® (VNH) meets the stringent standards required by military and government agencies, facilitating easy procurement and inventory management. The availability of Zip-On® (VNH) with NSNs underscores Zippertubing's commitment to quality and reliability in providing essential components for critical operations.

Q:  What is the difference between the track closure styles?

A:  Each interlocking track profile has unique benefits and trade-offs.  To learn about them you can review our Track Comparison.

Q:  How do I close the jacketing?

A:  Some tracks can be closed by hand, but we also offer closure tools to assist with installation.  For more information on closing the specific tracks you can view our helpful videos or installation guides:

Q:  Can I cut the tubing?

A:  Yes.  Standard scissors are suitable for cutting through most Zip-On jackets and tracks.

Q:  What lengths of material are available?

A:  Typical spool lengths for most sizes are 100 feet, but will depend on total order footage.  Custom lengths can be provided, just make sure to ask when ordering or include details on the PO for the lengths required.

Q:  Will the track keep out water and is it water-tight?

A:  Our different track closures are rated between IP54 and IP55. This means they are not water tight but will provide significant protection against moisture and fluid ingress. 
Some users will apply tape or a sealant to the track, after closing, to provide additional protection. 

Q:  What diameter of jacketing do I need?  Is it recommended to oversize?

A:  We will often suggest oversizing the sleeve diameter by 1/8” to allow for ease of install
when using a closure tool.  If the application requires significant bending or flexing we will suggest even more extra room.  For assistance with sizing you can also contact one of our design engineers.

Q:  What is the minimum bend radius of the tubing?

A:  There is no minimum bend radius for our Zip-On products. The flexible jacketing material allows for extreme amounts of bending and flexing.  The bend radius of the installed tubing is typically dictated by the harness it is covering.
