Cooktop Bumper, Bushing, Grommet Parts

A small sleeve used to support and align a shaft, pin, or lever inside the appliance. Replacing a worn bushing restores smooth, quiet movement and helps prevent accelerated wear on adjoining parts for reliable operation. What it does:

• Supports and centers a rotating or sliding shaft/pin
• Reduces friction and metal-to-metal wear to minimize noise
• Helps maintain proper alignment for consistent performance
• Common signs of wear: wobbling play, squeaks/grinding, binding, or visible cracks

• One bushing

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water before servicing
• Note the original orientation; seat the new bushing fully and squarely
• Clean mating surfaces; inspect shafts/pins for wear and replace if damaged
• Apply manufacturer-approved lubricant only if specified by your service manual

This snap-in bushing provides a low-profile bearing surface to support rotating shafts and reduce wear and noise in appliance assemblies. It restores smooth operation where the original bushing is worn or damaged. What it does:

• Provides a replaceable bearing/sleeve for rotating shafts and posts
• Reduces friction and wear on housing and moving parts
• Helps eliminate rubbing, grinding, or rattling noises during operation
• Maintains correct shaft alignment for smooth rotation

• One snap-in bushing

• Disconnect power before servicing and follow all safety instructions
• Access may require removing panels or covers; inspect surrounding parts for wear
• Press or snap the bushing squarely into the housing until fully seated; avoid deforming it
• Replace any damaged retainers or seals and test operation after reassembly

This bushing supports and centers a rotating shaft, reducing wear and friction to help restore smooth, quiet operation. Use it when a worn sleeve causes noise, binding, wobble, or uneven movement. What it does:

• Cushions and supports a rotating shaft to prevent metal-on-metal contact
• Reduces friction and wear that can cause squeaks, grinding, or rough operation
• Helps stabilize shafts to minimize wobble and uneven rotation
• Protects housing and shaft from accelerated damage

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Requires partial disassembly of the component housing; follow the OEM service instructions
• Inspect mating shaft/housing for wear and replace if damaged—fit must be snug
• Do not force the part; if lubrication is needed, follow OEM guidance
