Parts for Kitchenaid KRFF300EBS01: Freezer Door Parts

Color: Black

The Whirlpool thimble is an OEM replacement part responsible for providing support and stability to the refrigerator door hinge. It is typically located on the bottom or top of the refrigerator or freezer door, where the hinge attaches to the door frame. The thimble acts as a protective sleeve that helps reduce friction and wear between the hinge and the door, ensuring smooth and effortless opening and closing of the door. It helps to distribute the weight of the door evenly, preventing it from sagging or misaligning over time.

Causes of a bad thimble can include regular wear and tear from the frequent opening and closing of the refrigerator door, or damage due to misalignment or impact. A faulty thimble can lead to difficulty in opening or closing the door and may cause improper sealing.

Symptoms of a bad fridge thimble include:

• Difficulty opening or closing the refrigerator door
• Squeaking or grinding noises when the door is moved
• The door not sealing properly
• Visible wear or damage on the thimble

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