Source Talon zipper for Aero A2 jackets

Hi Guys, my Aero Anniversary's cotton triple mark Talon is in need of replacement, the bottom facing is spliting, the usual problem with cotton. But the length of these Aero's Talon is an awkward 21.4, 21.3 something! I wonder if these Talons are standardized for different specs, or this length is totally sporadic?? Where can I source a replacement non-cotton zipper, I know I can ask Aero, but I don't want a all-cotton zipper, I'd rather hace a YKK that lasts for a longer time. tHANKS!!

Can't give you a ready source but often, depending on the application, the top of the zipper tape is folded over at about a 90 degree angle and sewn into the garment. The excess teeth are removed first and new stops placed. Just an FYI about those odd lengths of zipper tape.
