• Reduces rattling, thumping, or scraping noises tied to a loose or damaged lifter.
• Protects fabrics from snagging or rubbing against the drum surface.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning service to avoid shock or injury.
• Access may require removing the dryer front panel or drum.
• Keep fasteners and mounting tabs aligned during reassembly to ensure the baffle seats correctly.

This is a replacement gas valve for gas ranges and wall ovens that controls gas flow to the burner assembly, restoring proper ignition and heat control for appliance operation. Use when the burner won't light or won't stay lit. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to oven/burner assemblies for safe ignition and temperature control
• Helps resolve ignition failures, weak or no burner flames, and intermittent heating
• Works with the appliance's ignition system to open and close gas supply as commanded

• One gas valve with included pipe

• Turn off the appliance's gas supply and electrical power before starting work
• Inspect fittings and gaskets; replace any damaged seals to ensure a gas-tight connection
• After installation, perform a gas leak test and check that burners ignite and operate correctly

This out exhaust pipe directs a dryer's exhaust airflow from the appliance to the home vent, helping remove moisture and lint from the dryer cabinet. Durable replacement for worn or damaged exhaust tubing. What it does:

• Channels hot, moist air from the dryer to the external vent to prevent moisture buildup
• Helps maintain proper airflow for efficient drying and reduces lint accumulation inside the cabinet
• Replaces cracked, crushed, or disconnected exhaust connections that cause poor venting or air leaks
• Works as a direct-fit plumbing piece when original exhaust piping is damaged

• One out exhaust pipe

• Disconnect power to the appliance before installing; for gas dryers, turn off gas supply and pilot per manufacturer instructions
• Ensure the pipe fits securely to the dryer outlet and the wall vent; use manufacturer-recommended clamps or fasteners
• Inspect and clean the vent path and lint screen while replacing the pipe to ensure safe airflow

This motor connector housing is the molded body that holds the motor's wire terminals for a secure, insulated connection. Replacing a cracked or heat-damaged housing helps restore reliable motor operation and prevent intermittent power issues.

• Organizes and insulates the motor's wiring terminals
• Locks the harness to the motor for a firm electrical connection
• Helps reduce loose contacts, arcing, and heat damage at the plug
• If the housing is failing, you may see intermittent or no motor operation, the machine stopping mid-cycle, or visible melting/discoloration at the motor connector

• Disconnect power; also shut off gas supply
• Note wire positions; transfer terminals into the new housing one at a time to maintain orientation
• Inspect terminals and wiring; replace any burnt or loose terminals before reassembly
• Ensure the connector seats fully on the motor and the harness is secure; restore power and test

Color: Gray. Size: 13 oz. can. Used for coating the dryer drum interior. Acrylic appliance paint.

This touch-up paint restores small chips, scratches and nicks in painted appliance surfaces for a cleaner, like-new appearance. It's ideal for hiding minor cosmetic damage without repainting the whole panel. What it does:

• Covers small chips, scratches and scuffs on painted appliance surfaces
• Helps prevent bare metal exposure that can lead to rusting of small areas
• Restores color and gloss to localized damage for improved appearance
• Applies to control panels, doors and trim where finish is worn

• Shake well before use and apply sparingly with a fine brush, cotton swab or toothpick
• Allow finish to dry fully between light coats for best color match
• Work in a well-ventilated area and avoid inhaling fumes
• Keep out of reach of children and follow local disposal regulations for paint

This precision-drilled burner orifice is sized for Type 4 butane applications. It meters gas to the burner so flames ignite reliably and burn cleanly when the appliance is configured for butane per the manufacturer's specifications. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to the burner head for proper flame size and shape
• Type 4 drilling intended for butane gas configurations specified by the manufacturer
• Replaces a missing or stripped orifice during service or gas-type conversion

• 1 burner orifice (Type 4, butane)

• Shut off gas supply and power; allow the appliance to cool before service
• Access the orifice at the burner base/manifold; remove the original with the correct wrench or socket
• Start threads by hand; tighten snugly—avoid overtightening or cross-threading
• After reassembly, leak-check with soapy water and verify flame; gas conversions should be performed following OEM instructions and local codes

Size: 26 inches long. F18t8/cw/k26.

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
