Waste tank leak. Epoxy, putty, fiberglass?

Spin weld is exactly as it sounds. Spin the peice of pipe long enough for friction to create heat and melt it together. Honestly it's the same way a driveshaft is put together. Spin weld is the same as a friction weld.

I just called Newell and got some further information. Apparently a threaded bulkhead fitting is spun weld onto the polyethylene tank and then the ABS is threaded into that. So at this point, I just need to unthread the ABS and I will have a repair as good as new. I was mistaken I thought somehow they spun, weld the ABS into the polyethylene tank.

That’s a much better scenario! Good find!
