My daughter has a 2007 Arctic Fox she bought recently. The corner of the black water tank flange is cracked. Would like to know best way to make sure tank is secure. We haven't taken off all the covering yet.
Hi,
Need a little more info on which "flange" is cracked. Is this the flange:
-Molded in the sides of the tank holding the tank to the camper frame which may be under a bottom cover?
-The flange on the dump valve pipe outside the bottom cover near where you hook up the dump hose?
- The flange where the sewer pipe connects to the actual tank?
Or other area?
If you can post a picture, it can greatly help us see what you have and you will get better answers as to how to possibly fix it.
If the crack is in the tank, the pipes or a fitting attached to the tank/piping, most of these systems are made from black ABS plastic. And that type of plastic can be solvent welded with a few different methods to repair most any crack. I have done this before on ABS plastic and the results were a permanent repair and not a lot of cost. But this all starts with, what the crack looks like and where is it?
Hope this helps
John
