Can you tell that it has been taken apart at all? I was getting ready to send one of my original Eaton fan clutches to Kirk, but was trying to figure out if you can tell that the front plate was removed and welded/ brazed back on.

The TIG welding is on the aluminum lip which is then machined down to the original profile in order to re-seal as original.
It is only the process to repair the original crimped down lip which is either broken or fractured when disassembling the units.

After Kirk is done, can you tell that this area has been re-welded or is the repair totally un-detectable?
