The Agitator Bolt Washer is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It sits beneath the agitator bolt, providing a secure and tight seal to ensure the agitator remains firmly attached to the drive shaft. This washer plays a crucial role in the smooth and effective operation of the agitator during the wash cycle.
You should replace this agitator bolt washer if it becomes worn out, cracked, or lost. Causes of a bad washer can include regular wear and tear, exposure to harsh detergents, or high levels of agitation that can degrade the material over time.
Symptoms of a bad agitator bolt washer include:
- The agitator being loose or wobbling during the wash cycle
- Unusual noises coming from the agitator area
- Ineffective washing performance
- The agitator not staying in place
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
