Malco SL5 9 in. Snap Lock Punch Silver metallic

Works as it should

If you are a do-it-your-selfer, this tool will get the job done. There is no need to buy the more expensive version. All you are doing is punching holes in vinyl, and thats what it does. I suppose the only improvement to this tool would be somthing to hold it together for storage (so that it not always in an open position). But a rubber band works fine for that too.

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

Did a search on the internet for this product to find the best price. Found it cheaper elsewhere, but when the shipping/handling was added, made its cost soar. Worked great right out of the box.

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.

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.

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.

Cheap quality but get the job done. They should have a lock on them or something to help keep closed as they are always sprung wide open.

I have had vinyl siding coming loose on the house. The person who put up my siding did not use this type of tool. someone told me about this product and it works like a charm, who knew. Saved me money on trying to use another siding company.

This lightweight snap lock punch works great on vinyl and light gauge metal. The tabs it creates do a good job of locking into finish/utility trim. The plastic grips are comfortable in the hand, and the punch provides good leverage for creating tabs in vinyl and metal coil material. Im very pleased with their performance.
