Default Tank Heater

I have a Tank heater which has a sticking thermometer cut-out, It does not
connect when the water temperature drops, But if I tap the thing the
thermostat clicks in. It does disconnect OK.
Has anyone taken one of these units apart, It looks like the Rubber outer
case , with the control on the top is moulded to the inner plug.
If I remove the temperature adjusting switch does the outer case pull off.
Has anyone been successful, in stripping down a heater, and assembling it
again, in a water proof working state.
Or is it quicker to throw it away, and buy another one.
