Malco SL5 9 in. Snap Lock Punch Silver metallic

Simple tool that worked as it should. I used this when replacing siding that had blown off in a storm, probably because the pro installer never put locking tabs in when the siding was originally installed. One hint for users; if the temperature is low (near freezing) the siding will be brittle and youll end up with the tabs snapping off leaving an oblong hole. Warm up the vinyl a bit and the tool works fine.

Keeps those top piece of vinyl siding from dislodging from undersill.

These are exactly what I expected. They work as they should. The quality made value is good. I think they are over priced but if you need them price don’t matter.

use alot

Works as it should

I had siding put up on my home. The installers did a fair job of installation generally, but some of the top pieces of siding slipped down. I did some research and found out about this tool and what it does. I should not have to, but I have had to repair pieces with this tool to make them stay up. It did what it (and my installers) were suppose to do.

works great anywhere you have to remove the nail fin from the siding. so when you get to the top of the wall, or under a large window you simply install finish trim (other wise know as snaplock trim) inside of your J channel. then cut your siding long enough to slide up into the finish trim. after that go back and puch the top of the cut siding every 4 to 6 inches. this tool puts a directional notch into the siding allowing it to lock into the snap lock trim. no need for exposed fasteners to secure the top wall, or anywhere you have to cut the top off of the siding.

Helped me get my dreaded siding job done a little easier, so for that I’m thankful.

Works great and keeps the siding locked in place.

Did what I needed it to. After using it for the first time I figured out not to seat the siding all the way into the plier as that increases the chance the notches are visible
