Abstract
The surfaces of a metal pull tab which is hingedly secured to a metal bracket on a zipper slider and/or the surface of the bracket which engages the pull tab is covered by a non-metallic relatively soft coating which prevents wear caused by metal-to-metal contact between the pull tab and the bracket and reduces noise caused by free-swinging contact between the pull tab and the zipper or slider to which it is attached.
