Wakaflex instead of sheet metal

[taz]

Anyone used Wakaflex instead of metal in valleys?

Thinking about this one. http://www.monier.se/proffskunder/proffsprodukter/wakaflex.html

No, but I'm planning to order a roll this week since I found out they've expanded the range with light and lead grey. Unfortunately, Swedish Monier still doesn't have the 560 mm width available in Norway and DK. I believe it's an awesome product that's apparently really common in Australia (where it comes from), but unfortunately, Swedish building markets are ultra-conservative and turn their noses up at anything that doesn't come from Benders.

WHERE can I find Wakaflex and their fittings?
Haven't managed after a couple of days on Google... =O((((((

Both Woody and Bauhaus have Monier as a supplier, but unfortunately, they are special order items, so it takes about a week. In my case, Woody was the cheaper option, so I chose them. Some building supply store near you should stock Monier's products, so check with them.

We usually buy wakaflex at our local lindab. However, it is quite expensive.

I do the same. Wakaflex is way too expensive to use for valleys as TS intended. Wakalex is good where it is difficult or takes too long because it is difficult to manufacture with regular sheet metal.
