Kenmore / Sears Range Screws, Nuts, Washers

Specs: 10-32 X 0.375

A truss-head shoulder screw used where a short, smooth bearing surface and a wide head are needed for pivoting or locating parts. Replaces worn or missing screws to restore proper alignment and movement. What it does:

• Provides a smooth, stepped shaft (shoulder) for parts to pivot or slide on
• Secures components while maintaining precise spacing and alignment
• Stops looseness that can cause rattling, binding, or uneven movement
• Works in assemblies where a wide truss head prevents pull-through

• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the truss head
• Do not overtighten; torque just enough to secure the part while allowing intended movement
• If working near electrical components, disconnect power to the appliance first

This replacement nut secures threaded fasteners on compatible Frigidaire appliances to hold panels and components in place. It restores proper fastening where a stripped, missing, or damaged nut causes loose parts or noise. What it does:

• Secures bolts and studs to keep panels, brackets, and components mounted firmly
• Prevents fasteners from backing out and reduces vibration-related noise
• Common symptom: loose or rattling panels or components near the fastener location
• Replaces corroded, rounded, or stripped nuts to restore reliable fastening

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Use the correct wrench or socket to avoid rounding the nut; match thread and size exactly
• Tighten snugly but avoid overtightening to prevent stripped threads or warped components
• If threads are damaged, replace both the nut and the mating bolt/stud for a secure fit

This rivet is a small metal fastener used to secure panels, trim, and small appliance components so assemblies stay stable and aligned. Replacing a damaged or missing rivet restores proper fit and reduces noise from loose parts. What it does:

• Secures sheet metal panels, trim pieces, or small brackets in place
• Keeps components aligned and prevents shifting or sagging
• Replacing worn or broken rivets can stop rattling or loose-feeling panels
• Use when a rivet is missing, bent, sheared, or otherwise damaged

• Typically installed with a pop-rivet tool or pressed into place depending on application
• Remove damaged rivets by drilling out the center or cutting them free before installing the replacement
• Wear eye protection and follow tool manufacturer safety instructions
