Maytag Refrigerator Gasket & Seal

This refrigerator door gasket forms an airtight seal between the door and cabinet to keep cold air in and humid air out. Replacing a worn gasket helps stabilize temperatures, reduce frost and condensation, and improve overall cooling performance.

• Seals the door perimeter to prevent air leaks
• Helps maintain set temperatures and humidity levels
• Reduces frost buildup and condensation around the door
• Common symptoms include rips/tears, warping, gaps, poor door seal, or visible moisture/frost at the door

• Disconnect power; let the interior warm slightly to soften the old gasket (or warm the new gasket in hot water)
• Pull the old gasket from the retainer/groove and clean mating surfaces
• Press the new gasket fully into the retainer, seating the corners first and working evenly around the door
• Use warm water or low heat to relax wrinkles; adjust door/hinges if needed

This refrigerator door gasket replaces a worn seal to restore a tight, even closure around the door. A proper seal keeps cold air in and moisture out, helping maintain temperature, reduce frost, and minimize run time. What it does:

• Forms a tight seal between the door and cabinet frame
• Helps maintain set temperatures and reduce moisture intrusion
• Resolves frost or condensation at the door and frequent compressor cycling
• Common signs: torn, cracked, or warped gasket; gaps; door not sealing smoothly

• Includes: 1 door gasket

• Disconnect power before servicing; remove or secure contents for safety
• On many models, loosen the inner-liner screws or pull the old gasket from the retainer/channel to remove
• Warm the new gasket (warm water or low heat from a hair dryer) to relax shipping folds
• Seat corners first, then press the rest into the retainer; verify seal with a paper-slip test and adjust as needed

The gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a sealing gasket responsible for creating an airtight seal between the refrigerator door and frame. This helps maintain proper temperatures inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments. 

Symptoms of a bad gasket include:

• Inability to maintain proper interior temperatures 
• Frost or condensation buildup inside the refrigerator or around doors and frames
• Higher electric bills from the compressor running excessively
• Noticeable temperature fluctuations when opening and closing the door

Causes of a bad gasket can include shrinkage and cracks due to aging, as well as tears, breaks, or holes from repeated use and compression. Over time, seals may no longer fully adhere, allowing air and warmer temperatures to enter.

This OEM Whirlpool part is compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This foamed-in-place refrigerator door gasket seals the door perimeter to keep cold air in and humid room air out. Replacing a worn or damaged seal restores a tight closure, reduces frost and sweating, and helps maintain consistent temperatures.

• Creates an air-tight barrier around the door opening
• Helps prevent frost, moisture, and temperature swings
• Can address issues like doors not sealing, warm spots, or long run times
• Typical failure signs: tears, cracks, warping, loose corners, or brittle rubber

• Unplug the refrigerator and clear items from the door
• Warm the new gasket in hot water or with low heat to relax and straighten it
• Remove the old seal; press the new gasket fully into the channel, seating corners first
• Close the door and verify uniform contact; adjust hinges or leveling if needed

This part is the gasket that is used on refrigerator doors. This part surrounds the perimeter of the refrigerator door and acts as a seal to both keep the cold air in the fridge but also keep the warm air out. It is white in color.Due to normal wear and tear, the gasket may become brittle and wear out over time so that it is no longer effectively sealing the door shut. It can also become torn or cut, which would also require a replacement. A quick visual inspection can determine if it needs to be replaced. If there are folds or creases in the replacement gasket, let it soak in warm water to help straighten it back out.This gasket is compatible with refrigerator units that are manufactured by KitchenAid, Thermador, Jenn-Air, Whirlpool, and Dacor. It is sold as an individual part. This gasket comes directly from the manufacturer.

Freezer Door Gasket

Color: White

The Door Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It forms an insulating perimeter around the freezer door opening to prevent warm air from entering during use.

Causes of a faulty door gasket include breakdown of sealing materials over time, cracks or loose edges that compromise effectiveness.

Symptoms of a bad freezer gasket are:

• Frost or ice buildup around the door seal
• Visible gaps allowing warm, moist air inside
• Inefficient cooling requiring excessive energy use
• Higher electric bills from poor insulation

This genuine OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This is a Whirlpool freezer gasket.If the freezer is having difficulties staying at temperature and the old gasket is damaged or off track, replacing the gasket could fix the problems. A faulty gasket could also lead to higher levels of ice and frost build up in the freezer. This could potentially raise an energy bill because it causes the freezer to stay engaged longer. Higher levels of frost build up could ultimately damage other components. Pull the old gasket out before installing the new one. It doesn't matter if the old part gets snagged or torn when it's taken out since a replacement is ready. Be sure not to break any of the fastening clips around the edge of the freezer. Slowly insert the gasket around the outer edges of the freezer lid, inserting the lip of the gasket into the cut out areas. Make sure the gasket is held tightly in place before shutting the freezer lid.This part is sourced directly from the manufacturer as a genuine OEM replacement part. This gasket is only available individually and is not included with any other parts or the original appliance. This product is compatible with Whirlpool brand freezers.

This freezer door gasket replaces a worn or deformed seal to restore a tight, even closure on the freezer door. A proper seal keeps cold air in and humid air out, reducing frost buildup and temperature swings.

• Creates an air-tight seal between the freezer door and cabinet to contain cold air
• Helps maintain correct temperature and efficiency; reduces frost/ice around the door perimeter
• Symptoms of failure: tears, cracks, warping, gaps, or door not closing fully
• Presents as frost buildup, moisture/condensation, or warm spots in the freezer

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Let the new gasket relax (lay flat; warm gently with hot water or a hair dryer) for easier fit
• Remove the old gasket from the retainer/channel; on screw-retained styles, loosen (do not remove) liner screws as needed
• Seat the new gasket evenly, starting at the corners; use gentle heat to smooth wrinkles and ensure a uniform seal all around

This is the front seal for the refrigerator's crisper compartment. It restores a tight barrier at the drawer's front edge so the crisper closes flush and maintains proper humidity to help keep produce fresh.

• Seals the front edge of the crisper to limit air leaks between the drawer and fresh food compartment
• Helps maintain intended humidity levels inside the crisper
• Restores smooth, flush closure of the drawer front
• Replace if the seal is torn, deformed, or missing; symptoms can include excess condensation or wilting produce

• Unplug the refrigerator and remove the crisper drawer
• Pull the worn seal off the crisper front/channel and clean the mating surface
• Warm the new seal in hot water to improve flexibility; press it evenly into place and ensure corners are fully seated
• Reinstall the drawer and verify proper alignment and closure
