Estate Washer Clip Or Clamp

The Clutch Band and Lining Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It contains the clutch band and clutch lining components essential for proper transmission of power from the washer motor to its drum during the spin cycle. The clutch band and lining allow for a controlled amount of slippage to safely extract water from clothes without damage. 

Symptoms of a bad clutch band and lining include: 

• Excessive noise or vibration during spin
• Slow or ineffective spinning 
• The drum failing to spin or “locking up”
• Premature wear of other transmission parts

Over time and with heavy use, these components can wear down. If slipping or damage is detected, it’s important to replace the kit to avoid potential transmission repairs.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This retainer ring is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for use on front load washing machines to hold the boot seal in place. The boot seal is the gasket that seals the washing machine when the door is closed to prevent water from leaking. The retainer ring is located flush against the boot seal and has either a spring clamp or screw clamp that secures it. Over time, this ring may become damaged due to the washing machine's normal use and age. If the ring is not tight, the washing machine could leak when in use. If water is coming from the door, it is a good idea to inspect and replace the retainer ring and possibly the boot as well.Unplug the washing machine to prevent electrocution. Remove the front panel, the detergent dispenser, and the kickplate to access the retainer ring. Locate the clamp on the ring and loosen it. Remove the retainer ring and set it to the side. Inspect the boot and then install the new retainer ring. Tighten the clamp and reassemble the washing machine. This retainer ring is sold as an individual unit. It is designed specifically for washing machines manufactured by Whirlpool.

This E ring is a small metal retaining clip that secures shafts, pulleys, and other rotating parts to prevent axial movement. It restores correct part positioning so assemblies run smoothly and stay aligned. What it does:

• Acts as a snap/retaining ring to hold components on a shaft or in a groove
• Prevents pulleys, bearings, or spacers from sliding out of place
• Common symptom: loose or shifting pulley, increased wobble, noise, or component disengagement
• Small, inexpensive part whose failure can allow adjacent parts to migrate and cause additional damage

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Use snap-ring pliers or needle-nose pliers and wear eye protection when installing or removing
• Ensure clip seats fully in the shaft groove and that mating surfaces are clean and undamaged
• Replace any damaged mating hardware rather than reusing a deformed clip

This replacement clamp secures flexible hoses and lines to prevent leaks and keep connections tight. It restores a secure seal so appliances move water or air without escaping at the joint. What it does:

• Secures inlet, drain or water lines to fittings and housings
• Helps stop leaks from loose or worn hose connections
• Keeps hoses from slipping off during operation or vibration
• Commonly replaced when clamps are corroded, broken, or no longer hold tension

• Inspect hose and fitting for damage before installing the new clamp
• Position clamp over the hose barb and tighten evenly until snug; avoid over-tightening
• Use appropriate tools (pliers or clamp driver) and follow appliance safety procedures
• Disconnect power and shut off water supply when working on water lines

This retaining clip secures small panels and components to help keep assemblies aligned and reduce rattles or movement during operation. It's a simple replacement that restores proper fit where the original clip has broken or gone missing. What it does:

A small retainer clip that secures panels, hoses or wiring to keep components in place and reduce noise from loose parts. Replacing a worn or broken clip restores proper fit and helps prevent intermittent contact or rattling. What it does

• Secures trim, panels, hoses or wire harnesses to mounting points to prevent movement.
• Keeps components aligned so switches and seals engage correctly.
• Stops rattling or vibrating noises caused by loose parts.
• Helps prevent abrasion or chafing of wires and hoses by holding them away from edges.

• Install by snapping or sliding the clip into the factory mounting slot; use needle-nose pliers if needed.
• Power off and unplug the appliance before accessing internal parts.
• Inspect surrounding mounts and mating tabs for damage; replace if worn for a secure fit.
• If removal is difficult, apply a small amount of penetrating lubricant and work carefully to avoid breaking adjacent plastic.
