In the process of fitting a solar panel so called our local dealer today to see if they had any Sikaflex 512 in stock.

They've told me they are no longer using Sikaflex and instead they now use Simpson ISR 70 - they said this is what Swift and Bailey are now recommending.

Anyone ever used it? How does it compare to Sikaflex 512?

Thanks

No idea but if they're using it its price rather than performance that is behind it.
Most likely buy it for less and sell it for more

Hi,

A very good friend of mine owns a construction products company, and when I asked him to get me some Sika Flex he convinced me that there are very similar products for each job.

I have used Soudal Fix All for a few jobs now (Solar, Satellite, etc) and it appears to have done the same job thus far (watch me tempt fate and lose my Solar Panel on the M6).

I have no reason to doubt him as he could have supplied any that I wanted.

(the point I'm trying to make is that I think there are probably lots of similar products out there up to the job, and I would imagine a vast amount of businesses that fit things on a daily basis use a cheaper version of Sika)

That said, I think you need to go with what you are confident with.
