Customer Questions and Answers for Bellow by Whirlpool

The Washer Bellow is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool front-loading washing machines. As a critical seal, it prevents air and water from escaping the center hub opening during operation. 

Symptoms of a bad washer bellow include:

• Wet cabinets or floors developing under the machine
• Suds or water visible around the center hub area
• Inefficient or unbalanced cycles requiring additional water
• Premature failure of internal bearings due to intrusion

Causes can involve normal changes from multiple humid-then-dry cycles over time. Limescale or mineral deposits trapped against the seal may also accelerate material breakdown.

This genuine Whirlpool replacement bellow is compatible with brands including Maytag, Amana and select Kenmore models.
