    I am fairly sure someone told me JBR plastic sell it for £50 for 50 litres? It's not obvious on their site so maybe worth a phone call

    JBR Plastics Limited | Plastic Welding | Car Bumper Repairs

    My friend has just ordered a load from amazon with prime free delivery. Was actually cheaper than JBR once delivery was added on top. I believe he’s paid £54 delivered for 50l.

    eBay have a 10% code off today. I just bought 250 litres (not all for me).

    A bag was £54.90 delivered but you get discount if you buy more than 1 bag so it worked out £237.15 for 5 x 50 litre bags with the seller and eBay discount so £47.43 each. Plus 1.01% on topcashback so an extra £2.40 off taking it to £46.95 delivered a bag.

    You use less in the end with helx 13. Bigger surface area. So that counters the cost lol
    I have it mixed with k1 in my nexus.

    They call it “13”
    Whether that’s a dimension or not I don’t know. Ultimately, it shouldn’t matter as it’s only extruded plastic after all.

    probably needs more air to keep it turning over because of its larger size...me thinks
