Broken Gray discharge pipe

[albow]

The yard guy hit the gray side that leads to the junction with the black side and broke it. It's after the elbow that turns down and it runs parallel until it joins the black just above the end/cap. It includes the gray dump valve. I'm not finding any pipe on camping world's site to repair this. It's black. Where should I look and will I need any special pipe glue? THanks.

Interesting they would sell the fittings but not the pipes. Since someone just said it's glued, I'm assuming I'll have to cut and junction together, as I wouldn't think it would come out of the elbow.

Can't see the picture, but the standard drain plumbing use in RV is ABS with all the fittings one would ever need at HD or Lowes.

Yeah, cut and glue new round tinkertoys. They do make a compatible union if it gets to be dicey.
FWIW, around here, the big box stores no longer sell ABS. If I needed some, I'd go to a plumbing distributor.

Oh, it's broke apart at both ends. I have since learned it's abs as noted above as well. Yep, seems simple but ain't. The local hardware store couldn't point me to any, not could a local plumbing supplier but I will call Lowe's in a minute. I have at least found some online but have to find the same 90 degree joint where they come together right before the end cap. It broke off at that one end. Sounds like there's some debate about this using glue or just slip fitting. If there's glue involved, I assume I can't just remove the unbroken end from it's elbow and will have to cut and join. My plan at this time is to call the online rv supply place when they open in the morning, send them my pics and let them tell me what I need. I don't know if I can put my pics on here or not but will give it a shot. they're on my phone, not my computer.

Is it actually broken or just cracked? If it's just cracked and in a hard to repair place, you may be able to simply open up the crack a bit and force some ABS cement into it. Unlike normal glue, the cement will actually melt it together. If you need more strength you can use a pieces of ABS and cement it over the affected area.

I suppose there may be a primer for abs pipe but I've never seen any nor used any. Hmmm I better check more carefully at HD tomorrow.

Could you post a picture, please?

X2 sounds like easy repair, yet a pain in the butt, things happen ,

Black is ABS. Home Depot, Lowes, Ace, etc. Uses yellow glue and I prefer to use a primer first.
