ABSTRACT:
A hand tool is provided for securing adjacent vinyl siding strips. First and second handles, bearing first and second jaws, are pivotally attached. A first jaw forms a channel, and the second jaw supports a crimp bolt. A portion of one siding strip is disposed between the jaws. Actuation of the jaws moving the crimp bolt against the vinyl strip pushes the strip into the channel forming crimps on the strip, which crimps facilitate formation of a positive lock with an adjacent strip.
