Fastener screw

This replacement mounting screw secures the appliance unit assembly to its frame so components stay aligned and stable during use. Use it to restore proper fit and reduce movement or vibration caused by a missing or damaged fastener. What it does:

• Fastens the unit assembly to the appliance frame or support bracket.
• Restores tight, secure mounting when an original screw is missing or stripped.
• Helps eliminate rattling, vibration, or misalignment caused by loose hardware.
• Matches OEM thread and length for proper fit where specified.

• Disconnect power and water before starting any repairs.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head.
• Tighten until snug—do not overtighten, which can strip threads or damage housings.
• Replace with the exact OEM screw if threads, length, or head style differ.
