This heater sheath is the protective metal sleeve that surrounds a dryer/oven heating element, helping protect the element and focus heat where needed for reliable appliance heating performance. What it does:

• Protects and supports the heating element inside the appliance
• Helps direct and contain heat for efficient operation
• Can prevent direct contact between the element and surrounding components
• Commonly replaced when the sheath is corroded, dented, or damaged
• Linked to uneven heating or visible element damage

• High-level replacement only; disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock hazard
• Inspect surrounding components (element, terminals, mounting clips) and replace any damaged parts
• Use proper fasteners and ensure sheath is seated securely to avoid contact with other components

This washered screw secures panels and internal components where a combined screw-and-washer fastener is required, restoring proper fit and stopping movement or rattling. Simple replacement with the correct fastener keeps assemblies aligned and stable. What it does

• Secures panels, brackets or components where a washered screw is specified
• Replaces missing, stripped or corroded fasteners that allow vibration or gaps
• Helps stop rattling, loose panels or misaligned parts caused by a failed screw
• Provides a sealed bearing surface to distribute load and prevent pull-through

• One washered screw

• Disconnect power and/or water to the appliance before starting any repair
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid cam-out and fastener damage
• Align parts before tightening and snug; avoid over-tightening which can strip threads or crack plastic

This tapping pan-head screw secures interior panels and components in appliances, providing a low-profile head and threads that form into metal for a firm hold. It's a direct-fit fastener for repairs and replacements. What it does

• Fastens panels, brackets and small appliance components where a self-tapping screw is required
• Pan-head profile gives a flush, low-profile finish that resists snagging
• Threads cut into mating metal to create a secure attachment without a nut
• Commonly used where sheet-metal or thin-frame fastening is needed

• One tapping pan-head screw

• Use the correct screwdriver bit that matches the screw recess to avoid stripping
• Start in a pilot hole or with light initial pressure to ensure proper thread formation
• Tighten until snug; do not over-torque — overtightening can strip threads or deform panels
• Wear eye protection when working with metal fasteners and sheet metal
