The Threaded Handle Anchor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component is essential for securely attaching the refrigerator door handle to the door, ensuring that it remains firmly in place during regular use. The anchor fits into the door and provides a threaded connection point for the handle screws, offering stability and ease of use.

Common causes of a bad threaded handle anchor include wear and tear from frequent use, cross-threading during installation, or physical damage from excessive force or impact.

Symptoms of a bad threaded handle anchor include:

• The refrigerator door handle feeling loose or unstable
• Difficulty securing the handle to the door
• The handle detaching from the door
• Visible damage or stripping on the anchor threads

This OEM part is also compatible with some Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Grey Door Gasket is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a sealing strip that sits snugly around the perimeter of the door. The gasket plays an important role in preventing warm air and moisture from entering the refrigerator interior when the door is closed.

Symptoms of a bad gasket include:

• Excessive frost or ice buildup inside the refrigerator
• Higher than normal energy usage
