We buy lots of Yorkshire and soldering. The solder ring gear is cheaper than endfeed ! We can get a westco or trade fix fitting as cheap as an endfeed. We have always used these fittings and you can see the difference . Some ef jobs are just thrown in and are cheap and nasty. Ours are well done and with quality materials.

I think its more a price thing. Yorkshire fittings are so expensive compared to Endfeed that they wouldnt believe that anyone could use them and not lose the work on price.

Price wise it is not an issue as everyone in this area uses solder ring

and maybe one day I'll not be classed as DIY then lol
 
I just looked it up. We will sell more endfeed fittings in 3 days than we will yorkshire in the entire year.

Staggering how regions vary.
 
as above am the same solder ringer are roughly the same unless rays prices tho only time i use end feed is on 8mm and 10 mm 2/3 a fitting for solder
 
I use end feed on everything last time I used soldering was when I left a police station build and they were emptying the container didn't buy a fitting all year after that
 
Ermi, if you can get 310 solder ring fittings for anywhere near £60 inc vat, I'll drive up north and nosh you off. Tonight.

Ermi - just drafting your quote - should be with you in a moment. Did you say 310 solder ring fittings for £60? I'm sure we can oblige.

Narr it's 35p just wanted a response!

These threads show how u hold old prices and how different we are not.

We used to get stupidly cheap boilers and pay through nose for tube and fittings. No more. Thanks to monthly spread sheets.
