Parts for Kitchenaid KSSC42MFS05: 11 - Freezer Door Parts

The Screw is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This screw plays a small but important structural role, securely fastening the refrigerator door hinges in place.

Causes of a bad screw include normal wear and tear, repeated door opening/closing stress, or accidental damage during cleaning or servicing of the hinge area.

Symptoms of a bad hinge screw include:

• Loose or sagging door that does not close or seal properly
• Increased vibration or noise from the hinge area
• Difficulty opening/closing the door smoothly

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

This replacement refrigerator door gasket restores a tight seal between the door and cabinet to help maintain proper temperature and reduce frost and moisture. Use it when the existing seal is torn, warped, or not sealing evenly.

• Creates an airtight barrier around the door to limit warm air infiltration and cold air loss
• Helps minimize frost/ice buildup and condensation at the door opening
• Replaces cracked, shrunken, or deformed gaskets that leave gaps or air leaks
• Common symptoms include visible tears, moisture on or around the seal, temperature fluctuations, or a door that won't seal fully

• Unplug the refrigerator; allow the new gasket to warm to room temperature. Gentle warming (hot water bath or low heat) can help relax kinks.
• Clean the door's sealing surface. Remove the old gasket carefully to avoid damaging any retaining channel.
• Fit corners first, then work along the sides for an even, uniform seal. Design and attachment method vary by model.
• Close the door and check for even contact (dollar-bill test). Readjust gasket seating or door alignment as needed.
