It depends on the plastic. But unless it's one where there is a true

I had a plastic lug snap off one of the internal shelf doors in
the freezer. This looked like it might be a problem to glue, so
I melted the two surfaces quickly over a gas flame and pushed
them together, and it's been fine for the 10 years of use since.
Obviously, this only works with thermosoftening plastics.
