Look the underside of the part or a similar part over for the "SPI" triangle.
That will identify what type plastic compound it is.
SPI Code 1: PETE or PET. SPI Code 2: HDPE. ... SPI Code 3: PVC. ... SPI Code 4: LDPE. ... SPI Code 5: PP. ... SPI Code 6: Polystyrene. ... SPI Code 7: Other Plastics.

You could even reinforce the other side before it breaks.
