    Abstract: A hand tool that has a pliers-like body and a special head. The head has a pair of parallel teeth that fit onto the grooves of a zipper guide. As the tool is squeezed, the teeth force the grooves closed uniformly and symmetrically. In this way, the tool can adjust the grooves on all types of zippers quickly and easily. Such a tool can be used on all types of zippers, such as those found on tents, clothing, tote bags, luggage and many other things.
