Repairing hard plastic(?)

Hello everyone-

I have a Herman Miller Aeron chair that I've loved for the past 10+ years.

It's finally given up the ghost, in that the seat frame that holds the webbing for your ass has failed, and has fractured.

I'm trying to glue/epoxy the frame back together, and have tried 3 different adhesives, but none of them work. They seem to tack up and cure just fine, but as soon as I sit on the chair, the bond immediately comes apart again.

I should also mention that each time I clean the "wound" with my Dremel tool, and ensure that the surface is quite rough.

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations or suggestions as to what I can try to fix it with?


I've attached a stock pic (not of my chair), but highlighted the cracked area with a red line.


Any thoughts?
