I searched extensively for a product that could allow us to attach directly to the top skin of a SIP panel without having to use blocking or through fasteners. We ended up using an attachment made by EcoFasten Solar. It uses a steel plate with a number of screws (8, I think) that collectively create the required pullout resistance. They had engineering to support using the product on SIPs, which was awesome. </div><div><br></div><div>A quick look at their website shows that they still make a SIP-specific attachment.
