Can you show exactly where ithat is I try hard to avoid 90 degree turns if at all possible. Yes you just cut it do not attempt to get it hot enough to melt the glue.

Hope this help

Pipe and broken fitting is located above ceiling

It's a very tight and uncomfortable place to work, I will be honest.

Questions:

Aren't there fittings that were built in mind that they are going to be replacing this smaller 90 degree.

Maybe there is a fitting that has a more or less flexible body in order to fit many scenarios. That said if there is one, I want to have it very durable. I don't care much about the cost.

Let me know what you think.

Thank you

I find plumbers to be some of the checks I don’t mind writing.

Hi Guys,

This is a great help. Thank you!

I was wondering if I can use Abs Cement with flexible elbow to make seal more secure?

If this is not a best option for gluing rubber and ABS, what it is a best option here?

Please let me know what you think.

Thank you!

With rubber couplers, plumbers use clear silicone rather than ABS cement (which might actually attack the rubber).

With rubber couplers, just screw the clamps snug/tight. They don't need anything else.

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to give an update. Decided to use ABS with cement. It is very robust and not even a single drop after two days of heavy use.

Thank you very much for your help.

Did you replace new pipes and use ABS cement or did you just apply ABS cement over the broken parts ?

I mean did you cut out pipes and replace with new pipes and fittings ? I have a similar challenge in a tight space related to broken pipe near the P-trap

This is how I end up doing it
