Description

This sheath heater is the protective heating element cover used in electric dryers to help direct heat and protect the element assembly. It restores proper heat delivery and helps prevent direct contact with the element. What it does:

• Protects and surrounds the dryer's heating element assembly to help direct airflow and heat
• Helps prevent shorting or damage from contact with the element
• Commonly replaced when the dryer fails to heat, heats intermittently, or shows scorch marks or visible damage to the heater area
• Works with the dryer's heating system; not a thermal fuse, thermostat, or heating coil by itself

What's included:

• One sheath heater

Install notes:

• Disconnect power (unplug or turn off breaker) before starting any repair
• Handle with care — sheet metal edges can be sharp
• Verify the heating element and thermostats are in good condition; replace any damaged components
