Description
The Drum Support Bearing is an OEM part for GE dryers. This part allows the smooth rotation of the dryer drum. This small yet crucial component plays a pivotal role in the dryer's operation, supporting the back of the drum as it turns, and ensuring that clothes are dried evenly and efficiently.
Over time, the drum support bearing may wear out or become damaged due to the constant friction and heat generated during the dryer's operation.
Symptoms of a bad Drum Support Bearing include:
- A squealing or grinding noise during operation, indicating that the bearing is worn out.
- Difficulty turning the drum by hand.
- Excessive vibration or shaking of the dryer.
- Increased drying times, as a result of the drum not maintaining the correct speed due to bearing friction.
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
