Abstract
A splicing member for securing horizontally adjacent siding panels to one another in an abutting relationship includes a first substantially planar member having an upper edge and a lower edge. Each of a pair of flanges extends outwardly from opposed sides of the first substantially planar member proximate the upper edge. A shoulder extends inwardly from the lower edge of the first substantially planar member. A second substantially planar member extends downwardly from an inner edge of the shoulder. A pair of projections extends downwardly from the shoulder and outwardly from the second substantially planar member. A pair of siding panels include a substantially planar member with apertures formed therein and a flange extending rearwardly therefrom. Flanges extend outwardly form sides of the planar member. A shoulder extends inwardly from a lower edge of the planar member and a second substantially planar member extends downwardly from the shoulder.
