The Lower Drum Felt seal is an OEM replacement part for GE dryers. The Lower drum felt seal is responsible for creating a seal between the drum and the front panel of the dryer.

This part fixes the following symptoms:

• Air leaking from the dryer drum
• Reduced dryer efficiency and increased energy costs
• Clothes becoming caught in the gap between the drum and front panel

• The dryer door not staying closed during a cycle
• Difficulty in closing the dryer door or getting it to latch properly
• The dryer not starting because the door switch is not engaged
• Visible damage or wear on the door strike

Causes of a bad door strike can include wear and tear from regular use, physical damage from slamming the door or mishandling, and misalignment caused by repeated opening and closing.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
