Abstract
A tool comprises housing, elongated member, trigger, first jaw, and second jaw. Housing comprises housing abutment surface. Elongated member comprises distal end, proximal end, and elongated-member abutment surface. Trigger is pivotally coupled to housing and is coupled to elongated member. Elongated member translates along axis when trigger is moved relative to housing. First jaw abuts housing abutment surface of housing and is configured to engage cable tie. First jaw is located between distal end of elongated member and housing abutment surface. Second jaw abuts elongated-member abutment surface and is configured to engage cable tie. Second jaw translates relative to first jaw along axis when trigger is pivoted with respect to housing.
