This freezer door gasket forms an airtight seal between the door and cabinet to keep cold air in and humid air out. Replacing a worn gasket helps maintain temperature, reduce frost, and improve efficiency. What it does:

• Seals the perimeter of the freezer door to prevent air leaks
• Helps maintain stable freezer temperature and proper freezing performance
• Reduces warm air infiltration that leads to frost and moisture
• Common symptoms of a failing gasket: tears or warping, frost along door edges, condensation around the door, poor sealing or door popping open, longer run times

• 1 freezer door gasket

• Disconnect power before servicing; open the door and clear the work area
• Warm the new gasket in hot water or with low heat to relax folds; clean the sealing surfaces
• If your model uses a screw-on retainer, loosen screws to remove the old gasket and install the new one evenly; if it press-fits, seat the gasket lip fully into the channel, aligning corners
• After installation, verify an even seal all around; adjust hinges/leveling if needed and use low heat to smooth waves; test with a dollar-bill test

Size: 1/4 inch hex head, 10-12 x 1/2 inch.
