Parts for Speed Queen FEU17AWF1702: Front Bulkhead Parts

This front bulkhead assembly forms the dryer's front drum support and air seal. Replacing a worn or damaged bulkhead restores smooth drum rotation, reduces noise, and helps maintain proper airflow for consistent drying performance.

• Supports and aligns the drum at the front to prevent rubbing and scraping
• Helps seal the lint/air path so heat stays in the drum and exhaust flows correctly
• Air leaks at the front bulkhead can contribute to long dry times or lint in the cabinet

• Disconnect power and gas supply and allow the dryer to cool before servicing
• Remove the front panel/door assembly; support the drum before detaching the old bulkhead
• Transfer any model-specific components from the original bulkhead and ensure seals/glides are correctly positioned
• After installation, rotate the drum by hand to verify clearances, then reassemble and test

A clear silicone adhesive/sealant used to bond and seal appliance trim and components, helping restore watertight and stable assemblies. Supplies a durable, flexible hold for small repairs where factory adhesive is specified. What it does:

• Bonds trim, panels, and small plastic or metal parts to prevent movement and leaks
• Seals gaps to reduce water intrusion around housings and door areas
• Provides a flexible, durable hold that resists vibration and temperature changes
• Useful for reattaching trim, tabs, and molded parts when original adhesive has failed

• One (1) clear 3 oz tube of DOW 737 adhesive

• Use in a well-ventilated area; wear gloves and eye protection to avoid skin/eye contact
• Surface must be clean, dry, and free of oils or old adhesive for best adhesion
• Apply as a thin, even bead; allow recommended cure time before reassembling or using appliance
• Follow any OEM repair instructions and local disposal guidance for adhesive containers

This seal kit restores a proper water-tight barrier in the washer's drive area to prevent leaks and protect bearings and motor components on 1992-and-newer units.

• Seals the drive shaft/tub interface to stop water migration
• Helps prevent bearing and motor damage from moisture
• Common leak symptoms: water under the washer, rust streaks at center post, noisy spin from moisture intrusion
• May also address oil/water contamination around the transmission area

• Disconnect power and water; move the washer to a stable, level work area
• Removal of agitator, inner tub, and drive components is typically required
• Inspect shaft and mating surfaces; clean and lightly lubricate as specified by service literature
• Use proper drivers/press tools; do not hammer seals into place
