Quick answer

Replace a broken Oztent corner fitting by identifying the part on the diagram, ordering the correct replacement, and installing it with basic tools.

When to replace instead of repair

Corner fittings take the brunt of wind and setup stress. Cracks or breaks near the attachment holes usually mean the plastic has fatigued. A temporary patch with tape or epoxy rarely holds long-term because the fitting flexes under tension. Replacing the part restores full strength and avoids a mid-trip failure.

How to replace an Oztent corner fitting

Identify the broken part: Compare the damaged fitting with the parts diagram in your Oztent RV manual or on the Oztent USA website. Note the part number and which corner (left/right, front/back) it belongs to. Ordering the wrong part is the most common mistake. Double-check the diagram before you buy.
Order the replacement: Purchase the correct replacement part, such as the Oztent Replacement Parts - Corner (Pack of 2). The two-pack gives you a spare for the other side or future use.
Remove the old fitting: Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the screws securing the broken corner fitting to the tent frame. Keep the screws—they are usually reusable. If the plastic is shattered, carefully pull out any remaining pieces. Work over a tarp or cloth so you do not lose small screws in the grass or dirt.
Install the new fitting: Position the new corner fitting so the alignment tabs match the frame. Insert the screws and tighten them snugly—do not overtighten, as plastic can crack. Hand-tighten first, then give each screw a quarter turn with the driver. Over-tightening is the second most common error.
Test the repair: Set up the tent or awning as you normally would. Check that the corner fitting holds the pole or fabric without slipping. If the fit feels loose, recheck the alignment and screw tightness. A successful test means the corner is as strong as before. If you feel play, the fitting may be the wrong orientation—compare it again with the diagram.
