The Gasket is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. This part is located between the front and rear outer tubs and prevents water leaks by maintaining a watertight seal between them. The gasket acts as a barrier to ensure that water used during the washing process remains contained within the inner tub, preventing it from seeping into the washing machine's surrounding components.
Causes of a bad gasket can include regular wear and tear, exposure to harsh detergents, or deterioration over time.
Symptoms of a bad gasket include:
- Water leaking from the outer tub area
- Visible cracks or deterioration in the gasket material
- The washing machine not holding water properly
- Increased noise or vibration during operation
This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.
