They should be able to disassemble. Might be the spring inside has lost its sprong :).

Cheers armedcor that will be fantastic and thanks. It is just annoying is all. They look indestructible. I might try amd take apart later after work for the craic and see if i can see a spring missing or anything obvious.

When taking apart you should find some tiny ball bearings so do it on a table and have a Tee towel on the table to catch anything that's falls off ;)
