Garbage Disposal Parts

This hopper screw is the auger-style screw that moves material through the appliance's hopper, restoring proper feed and consistent dispensing. Replaces a worn, bent, or damaged hopper screw to help reduce jams and uneven delivery. What it does:

• Transports material from the hopper to the next stage for consistent feeding
• Helps prevent bridging and jams caused by a worn or bent screw flight
• Restores even, measured dispensing when the original screw is damaged or stripped
• Reduces scraping or grinding noises associated with a damaged auger

• Disconnect power and water (if applicable) before starting any repair
• Inspect surrounding bearings, bushings, and seals for wear while replacing the screw
• Use basic hand tools; avoid over-tightening fasteners that secure the screw

This replacement wire tension spring restores proper tension and movement in the appliance's mechanical assembly, helping components return to their correct position and operate smoothly. What it does:

• Provides tension and controlled return for a moving linkage or door/lid assembly
• Helps reduce binding, sagging, or misalignment caused by a worn or broken spring
• Restores smooth mechanical operation where a spring is used to counterbalance or tension a part
• Common symptom: noisy operation, loose or non-returning linkages where a spring is required

• One replacement wire tension spring

• High-level replacement only; verify exact spring orientation and attachment points before removing the old spring
• Use proper hand protection and eye protection; springs can release suddenly under tension
• Disconnect power and follow appliance-specific safety procedures when needed

This grinding ring is the wear surface for the appliance's grinding assembly, replacing a worn or damaged ring to restore normal grind performance and reduce noise from metal-on-metal contact. What it does

• Serves as the replaceable wear surface inside the grinding chamber
• Helps maintain proper clearance between grinding components
• Commonly replaced when you hear excessive grinding noise or reduced grinding efficiency
• Can prevent further damage to mating grinding parts by restoring proper contact surfaces

• One grinding ring

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any disassembly
• Removal requires partial disassembly of the grinding chamber; follow the OEM service manual
• Use gloves and eye protection to avoid sharp edges and debris
