Lg Washer Gasket & Seal

The Gasket is an OEM part for LG washing machines. It forms a seal between the door and the drum, preventing water from leaking out during the wash cycle.

Causes of a bad gasket can include wear and tear over time, mold or mildew buildup, or physical damage from sharp objects or rough handling. Detergent residue and other factors can also degrade the gasket material.

Symptoms of a bad Gasket include:

• Water leaking from the washer door
• Visible tears, cracks, or deformities in the gasket
• Mold or unpleasant odors emanating from the gasket area
• The door not sealing properly, leading to inefficient washing

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

The Gasket is an OEM replacement part for LG front-loading washing machine models. Located around the machine door opening, it creates a watertight barrier during extraction cycles.   

Over time, the gasket can wear out or become damaged due to constant exposure to water, detergent, and the friction of clothes. Mold and mildew can also build up, compromising the integrity of the seal.

Symptoms include: 

• Puddling or wetness near the opening after cycles   
• Musty odors permeating from the appliance interior
• Reduced mechanical balance stressing other components  

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore front-load washing machines. 

NOTE: This gasket does not have a drain hole. For a gasket with a drain hole, order 4986ER0004F.

The Door Boot Seal is an OEM component specifically designed for LG front-loading washing machines. Located between the outer drum tub and inner cabinet panels, flexible thermal seals help contain moisture during heavy-duty wash cycles.  

Causes of a bad door boot seal can include cracks developing due to impact or flex stress, along with air leaks resulting from compression damage or material wear over extended use.

Symptoms of a bad door boot seal include:

• Standing water or puddles accrued beyond the spinning tub perimeter  
• Visible moisture escaping between cabinet seams and door frame edges
• Seal detaching from the drum or inner wall surfaces allowing air gaps

Replacing with an authentic LG boot restores a tight moisture barrier critical to draining washtubs fully. Kenmore and Samsung front-loaders utilizing LG designs also source this precise seal as original equipment.
