Description

A heater sheath that houses and protects the dryer's heating element, directing heat into the drum for efficient drying. Replaces a damaged or corroded sheath to restore proper heating performance and reduce safety risks. What it does:

• Encases the heating element and helps channel heat into the dryer air path
• Prevents direct contact between the element and other components or lint
• Commonly replaced when heating is weak, intermittent, or the element is exposed
• Helps reduce risk of shorts or arcing caused by a compromised sheath

What's included:

• One heater sheath

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing—this part works on high-voltage circuits
• Inspect the element, mounting hardware, and surrounding insulation while replacing the sheath
• Use appropriate fasteners and gaskets; ensure proper alignment so the element doesn't contact other parts
• If you see corrosion, holes, or exposed wiring, replace the sheath rather than patching
