The Shaft Seal is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This seal is designed to fit around the shaft that connects the tub to the transmission or motor, preventing water from leaking out of the tub and into the machine's internal components.

Causes of damage to the Shaft Seal often involve normal wear and tear from regular use, as the constant motion of the shaft can gradually degrade the seal.

Symptoms of a bad Shaft Seal include:

• Water leaking from the underside of the washing machine, particularly during or after a wash cycle
• A noisy operation, especially during the spin cycle, can sometimes result from water leaking into the bearings and causing them to fail
• The presence of rust or corrosion around the area where the shaft enters the tub
