Kitchenaid Drum, Bulkhead, Front Parts

This bulkhead is the front tub housing that supports the washer drum and seals the washer cabinet to help contain water. Replaces a cracked or corroded housing to restore proper drum alignment and help prevent leaks. What it does:

• Provides structural support for the washer tub and drum assembly
• Forms the front seal surface to help keep water inside the washer
• Helps maintain correct drum alignment to reduce noise and wobble
• A failing bulkhead can cause visible leaks, excessive vibration, or rubbing noises

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Inspect surrounding seals, gaskets, and mounting hardware when replacing the bulkhead
• Replacement may require partial disassembly of the washer cabinet and drum; follow OEM instructions
