i think this is a real deal SSI. i gave it a magnet test. while there some minor attraction with a kitchen magnet, i'm pretty sure it's stainless. then i notice one of the pipe ears. it sure looks like it's been torched, or something. does anyone think SSI would have some of the ears? i'm glad i noticed this before i was going to install it. this muti-photo-attachment feature is sure nice.

The ears on the SSIs can be bent or can even sometimes break. Depends on how torque-happy the monkey with the wrench gets... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
Looks like someone F'ed that one up, and then did a crappy job of welding it back on, or maybe welded on some scrap they had lying around. --DD |
