Customer Questions and Answers for Refrigerator Door Gasket (Beige) by Whirlpool

The Refrigerator Door Gasket (Beige) is an OEM replacement part specifically designed for Whirlpool-brand refrigerators. The gasket is responsible for preventing warm air and moisture from entering the refrigerator when doors close. The gasket measures approximately 19 ¼” wide x 62" tall.

Causes of a gasket issue can include cracking and degradation due to repeated compression over many years of use. Sections may lose elasticity and no longer seal tightly. 

Symptoms of a bad gasket include:

• High energy costs as the system works to maintain proper cooling
• Warm, humid interior environment allowing food decay
• Visible air leaks around gasket edges when doors are shut

This part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and other brands.
