This nut with attached washer is a small securing fastener used to clamp appliance parts and prevent loosening. It provides a low-profile, integrated washer bearing surface for a reliable hold. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, or components to prevent movement and rattling
• Maintains clamping force where an integrated washer is needed
• Helps keep electrical and mechanical connections stable
• Common symptom: loose or vibrating parts, squeaks, or components that shift during use

• One nut with attached washer

• Disconnect power and water before servicing
• Use the correct socket or wrench to avoid rounding the nut
• Tighten to snug fit — avoid overtightening which can strip threads or damage parts
• If replacing a rusted or damaged fastener, inspect mating threads and replace as needed

A small mounting nut used to secure components and panels on compatible appliances. Replaces a loose or missing nut to restore stable, safe fastening and reduce rattling or wobble. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, or assemblies to the appliance frame
• Prevents fasteners from backing out during normal operation
• Helps stop rattling, vibration noise, and loose-fitting parts
• Restores proper alignment for attached components

• Disconnect power and water before beginning any repair
• Match threads and size before installation; hand-start the nut to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten securely with the correct socket or wrench, but do not overtighten
• If the original fastener was damaged, replace the mating bolt/stud as needed

This axial flow fan moves air through the appliance to help cool internal components and support proper airflow. Replacing a worn or damaged fan restores quiet operation and helps prevent overheating-related issues. What it does:

• Circulates air across internal components or heat exchangers to maintain proper operating temperatures
• Helps prevent overheating of electronics, motors, or heating elements
• Reduces abnormal noise caused by worn or imbalanced fan blades or bearings
• Supports consistent airflow for reliable appliance performance

• One axial flow fan assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Handle the fan blades carefully to avoid damage; align properly during installation
• Verify secure mounting and electrical connections before restoring power
• Test appliance operation after installation and observe for proper airflow and quiet operation

This 8 mm diameter gasket creates a reliable seal in appliance assemblies to help prevent leaks and loss of pressure or airflow. It's a small replacement part that restores proper sealing where a worn gasket is causing issues. What it does:

• Seals joints and connections to help prevent water or air leaks
• Restores tight fit where a cracked, brittle, or flattened gasket allows seepage
• Reduces vibration noise from loose or poorly sealed parts
• Helps maintain proper operation of the sealed compartment or fluid path

• One 8 mm diameter gasket

• Disconnect power and water supply (when applicable) before servicing the appliance
• Remove old gasket and thoroughly clean mating surfaces before installing the new gasket
