If you use heat in repairing one of these rotors, I am sure it will demagnetise the magnets to some degree. This must have happened during the original manufacturing process and I assume Lucas would have needed to re-magnetise the magnets afterwards. Using epoxy to make a repair would obviously avoid this problem!

I agree with that and is a consideration for the "rebuild" of the stripped rotor. I shall not even consider any welding or other heat on a built up rotor just the large washers and screws/bolts/ self tappers as per previous

Hi Bess

I intend to run the one that I've repaired on next machine rebuild. However I fully understand why you would decide not to repair.

Take acre and thanks again

Mike
