Description

This thimble is a small sleeve that fits into the dryer vent opening to protect and guide the vent duct while helping maintain a secure, centered connection. It reduces wear on the duct and helps keep the vent aligned for proper exhaust flow. What it does:

• Guides and centers the dryer vent/duct at the cabinet opening to reduce rubbing and abrasion
• Helps create a consistent pathway for exhaust air to the exterior
• Minimizes gaps that can allow lint buildup or air leakage when properly seated
• Supports a secure connection between the vent duct and the appliance outlet

What's included:

• One thimble

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance and follow manufacturer safety instructions before servicing
• Use only the fasteners or clamps specified by the appliance manufacturer; do not force oversized ducts
• Inspect surrounding area for lint and damage; replace damaged ducts or seals as needed
