The Lint Screen is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It is designed to trap lint and debris from the drying clothes, preventing these materials from clogging the dryer vent and ensuring efficient airflow.
Causes of a bad lint screen can include wear and tear over time, damage from improper cleaning methods, or the accumulation of lint and debris that is difficult to remove. The mesh can become torn or the frame can crack, which reduces its effectiveness.
Symptoms of a bad lint screen include:
- Excess lint on clothes after drying
- Longer drying times
- Overheating of the dryer
- Lint buildup in the dryer vent system
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
This part fixes the following symptoms
-
No heat or not enough heat

My dryer was working but it was making a lot of (constant) noise very loud. Paul W. • Los Lunas , NM • September 24, 2017
The root cause was the front glides. They were virtually gone, and the drum was on metal to metal. So I replaced them with a front glide kit. I also replaced the belt, rear rollers, and lint screen. I am happy to say all the parts fit perfectly, and I couldn't find a better price anywhere else. I will definitely keep you on file for the next time I need appliance parts! Thank you!
Sincerely, pw
