    Loctite makes a 2 part epoxy for plastics. It is called Plastix Bonder. Got mine from Lowes. Clean where it is broken real good with rubbing alcohol. Find a way to sit it so it can cure. Mix a small portion and put it in the crack put the pieces together. Let it sit over night. Then take some sand paper and scuff up the outside around the crack. Miix some more and use it to build up around and over the crack. I have repaired several this way and they have held up good. If your worried about breaking again get you a Transducer Shield and Saver bracket and install it. Your not going to find anything to replace it with that's any stronger.
