The Screw Package is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It contains a pack of 12 identical screws for miscellaneous securing and assembly needs.

These screws play a supporting role, helping attach shelf tracks, cover panels, door hinges, and other interior parts. By maintaining components securely in place, they help ensure smooth operation and prevent rattling or other noises. 

Symptoms of insufficiently secured parts include:

• Noises heard from loose shelves or door components  
• Detaching handles, hinges, or panels
• Shelves shifting positions or becoming misaligned

Causes of needing replacement screws can include loss, stripping, or wear over time from repeated securement and removal of parts during cleaning or repairs. 

This multipack of GE screws is perfect for minor refrigerator maintenance or to stock up on extras. They are also compatible with replacement hardware from Hotpoint, RCA, and certain Kenmore models. 

These end caps are used to support the retainer bar to the refrigerator door. Works for both left and right hand. Color: White. Measures about 2-1/2 inches high by 3 inches deep.

The Freezer Door Gasket is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This gasket forms a seal around the freezer door, keeping cold air inside and preventing warm air from entering, which helps to maintain the optimal temperature and efficiency of the freezer.

Causes of a bad freezer door gasket can include regular wear and tear, mold or mildew buildup, and physical damage from repeated opening and closing of the door.  

Symptoms of a bad freezer door gasket include:

• Frost buildup inside the freezer
• The freezer running more frequently to maintain temperature
• Difficulty keeping the door closed or it not sealing properly
• Visible cracks, tears, or deformation in the gasket

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Fresh Food Door Gasket is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It seals the perimeter of the refrigerator's fresh food door, maintaining the internal temperature by preventing warm air from entering and cold air from escaping. The gasket measures approximately 39-3/4 inches by 29-3/4 inches.

Over time, door gaskets can wear out or become damaged due to constant use, exposure to spills, or mishandling. A faulty gasket compromises the refrigerator's efficiency, leading to increased energy consumption and uneven cooling.

Symptoms of a bad fresh food door gasket include:

• The door not sealing properly
• Increased frost buildup inside the refrigerator
• Warmer than usual refrigerator temperatures
• Higher energy bills due to the refrigerator working harder to maintain cool temperatures

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Timer include:

• Frost buildup in the freezer compartment
• The refrigerator or freezer is not maintaining the set temperature
• The fridge or freezer sections are too warm
• The defrost cycle does not activate, leading to reduced cooling efficiency
