The Lint Trap is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It helps in capturing lint and debris generated during the drying process, preventing them from clogging the dryer vent and exhaust system.

Symptoms of a bad lint trap may include:
- Longer drying times
- Reduced drying efficiency
- Visible lint accumulation in the dryer drum or on clothes
- Excessive heat inside the dryer
This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.
