A metal piece and some screws maybe.

A closeup pic of the break would be helpful

yeah, this

a plate and some bolts (at least 2 on each broken side)

that plastic will never have anything close to its original strength using glue

be more specific about the break
did the arm break in half or did a mounting point break or what?

cyanoacrylate has high tensile but low shear strength. it is also not flexible. it is a poor choice for this repair. if its plastic, get some cheap plastic epoxy and glue it up.you could reinforce with fiber and more epoxy but it will be uggo

I have some pretty nice pneumatic stools in my shop. A couple years ago they all started breaking. I started noticing soon after how often people put their broken office chairs out on the curb. Every other week I snag one and break it down, salvaging the universal gas cylinders, bearings and retaining clips. My shop stools are gonna last forever now. Funny how people throw away $30 in office chair parts every time it "wears out" or whatever.
