Hello,
the plastic part of a 15 pin connector from my PSU is broken.
I used glue to put it together, but it didn't last much.
Is there a way that I can replace the plastic part?
If yes, can anyone name the part that I need?

^ its not something corsair would supply at all IMO.

If you buy a sata power slitter for a few dollars (readily available on Amazon/eBay) you could either glue that single connector on permanently to your broken one or cut one of the extenders off & use it as a replacement.

That said do you actually need that sata power connector ??

You could just buy a molex to sata adapter & use that instead.

SATA Power connector. You might be able to just buy a new cable if your PSU is modular? Can you check if it can be disconnected from the PSU. If not then I'm sure it can be repaired.

No doubt repairable, somewhere. If it's costly then buy a new PSU altogether. VS Isn't that great.

I will try to contact Corsair and see if they can sent to me a new connector to replace it myself.
The warranty is still on, so maybe they will accept it I hope.
Thanks anyway.

As I mentioned earlier, the PSU is not modular, so cable management is a little harsh. I only use two disks (HDD and SSD) without any other peripherals at all, so I have many cables to fold and keep out of the way. I just found the sweet spot for easy accessibility on every component, while maintaining a neat look on the cables and sufficient air circulation, so instead of using another cable-connector from the hidden ones, I would like to repair the damaged one and use it. I saw a video on youtube yesterday, I hope it applies here too. Otherwise I will do what you recommended.
