Customer Questions and Answers for Door Gasket by Whirlpool

The Door Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This gasket forms an airtight seal around the refrigerator or freezer door, preventing warm air from entering and cold air from escaping.  

Causes of a bad door gasket can include wear and tear from frequent opening and closing, exposure to temperature fluctuations causing the material to become brittle or warped, and damage from improper cleaning or handling.  

Symptoms of a bad door gasket include:

• The refrigerator door not sealing properly
• Visible cracks, tears, or deformities in the gasket
• Condensation or frost buildup around the door edges
• Increased energy consumption and poor cooling performance

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
