For the Rubber Wiper Seal for RV Slide Outs - Channel Mounted Press-In, # SR44FR. When in the video Jeff refers to a tucking tool, he is simply making reference to a hand held tool that has a curved, dull blade, frequently made of plastic, spring steel or another type stiff material that can be used to manipulate the rubber seal into the channel without cutting it. These types of tools are often used when installing rubber seals, carpet and upholstery. Think about installing the item and wanting to push with your finger tips, use this instead at those points. It is easier on your fingers but definitely not a needed tool for installation. The mallet works too.
