Assuming that it's the same size, I don't know why not. The zippers on the suit that I bought were identical to the heavy duty zippers I've seen in commercial suits. When I took the suit apart the zipper was double stitched and was sealed with Aquaseal or something like it. The zipper is 32 inches long.

: zippers into a commercial drysuit?
