Description

The Top Bearing Assembly is an OEM part for GE dryers. This part supports the front of the drum as it rotates. Made from high-quality materials, this bearing assembly ensures smooth, quiet operation and helps to prevent friction between the drum and the dryer's body. 

Causes of a bad part can stem from wear and tear over time, excessive loads that strain the bearing, or lack of maintenance, such as not cleaning lint and debris, which can accumulate and cause additional friction.

Symptoms of a bad Top Bearing Assembly include:

• Unusual noises, such as squeaking or grinding, during operation, indicating that the drum is not rotating smoothly.
• Excessive vibration or shaking of the dryer, which can occur if the drum is not properly supported.
• Increased drying times, as misalignment can affect the efficiency of heat transfer and air flow.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
