Kenmore / Sears Washer Clip Or Clamp

This clamp secures flexible hoses and lines to fittings to help prevent leaks and keep connections tight. It's a small but important hardware piece that restores proper hose seating and reduces movement. What it does:

• Holds a hose or line firmly to a fitting to prevent slipping and leakage
• Restores proper sealing where a loose or damaged clamp allowed fluid or air escape
• Reduces vibration and rubbing that can wear hoses or nearby components
• Works on flexible discharge, drain, and supply hoses where a band-style clamp is used

• Disconnect power and shut off water or dispensed fluids before working on connections
• Use appropriate pliers or clamp tool to open or close the clamp; avoid over-tightening
• Inspect the mating hose and fitting for damage and replace if cracked, split, or corroded

A small OEM fastener used to secure appliance panels and trim for a clean, stable fit. Replaces a worn or missing retainer to prevent rattling and keep exterior parts aligned for normal operation and appearance. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim, or small components to the appliance frame

• Restores proper alignment of exterior pieces after repair or removal
• Useful when a broken or missing retainer causes rattling or gaps

• Typical installation requires basic hand tools; tighten until snug—do not overtighten
