Parts for Frigidaire LFD301GW4: 05 - Front Panel / Lint Filter Parts

The Dryer Seal is an OEM replacment part for Frigidaire dryers. It is located at the doorway opening where the drum rotates and helps prevent lint, moisture, and heat from escaping. The seal is a crucial component that ensures efficient drying and heat retention within the dryer drum. 

Causes of a bad seal can include wear and tear over time from continuous use or damage due to mishandling. The nylon seal experiences a lot of friction and heat stress with each drying cycle.

Symptoms of a bad seal include: 

• Increased drying time as heat escapes 
• Excess lint and moisture accumulation inside dryer components
• Visibly worn or cracked seal edges
• Cool air leakage noticed around the door when the dryer is running

This OEM Frigidaire replacement part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
