Customer Questions and Answers for Dryer Drum Support Roller Retaining Ring by Whirlpool

This is a snap retaining ring that holds the drum support roller in place on its shaft inside the dryer. It prevents the roller from sliding off the axle during operation. Replace this clip if the drum support roller is loose, the dryer makes thumping or rumbling noises, or if the original retaining ring is missing or damaged during a roller replacement.
