ABSTRACT:
A tool that allows a user to salvage a tube of caulk after the nozzle has become clogged. The approach is to cut off the nozzle to leave a stub of sufficient length, tap threads into the stub, and screw in a replacement nozzle. The tool comprises a body having a generally semi-cylindrical recess conforming to the base region of the caulking tube nozzle. A blade is mounted in the recess for cutting of the nozzle at a predetermined distance from the base of the nozzle. A tap, suitable for cutting threads into the stub of the nozzle, is rigidly mounted to and protrudes from the body. The tool includes provision for rendering the blade ineffective to cut nozzles or fingers when the tool is being used other than in the cutting mode.
