<p class="MsoNormal">We had to do this very thing for a project some years ago. 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. <o:p></o:p></p>

<div id="AppleMailSignature">
<p class="MsoNormal">A quick look at their website shows that they still make a SIP-specific attachment. Their flashing isn't ideal for Pro-panel, but I would think that you could make it work.<o:p></o:p></p>
