Customer Questions and Answers for Foot Pad Kit by Whirlpool

The Foot Pad Kit for Whirlpool ranges is an OEM part specifically designed to fit underneath the grates. These small but critical components provide cushioning and stability for the grates, preventing them from scratching the cooktop surface and reducing noise and movement during cooking. 

Symptoms of worn or missing Foot Pads include:

• Grates that wobble or shift during use
• Increased noise, such as rattling or scraping, when moving pots and pans
• Scratches or other damage to the cooktop surface beneath the grates
• Uneven cooking surfaces which can affect the stability of cookware

Causes of degradation in foot pads can include high heat exposure, frequent cleaning that wears down the material, or the natural breakdown of rubber or silicone over time.

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