Maytag Washer Gasket & Seal

The Gearcase Oil Seal is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This seal is located in the gearcase, preventing oil from leaking out while ensuring the internal components are properly lubricated. The kit contains two plastic seals that slide over the shaft to create a tight oil barrier.

Causes of a bad oil seal can include wear and tear over time, exposure to high friction and heat, or accidental damage during maintenance. A faulty oil seal can lead to oil leaks, which may cause further damage to the gearcase and other components.

Symptoms of a bad gearcase oil seal include:

• Oil leaks underneath the washer
• Loud noises during operation
• Washer not spinning or agitating properly
• Visible wear or damage to the seal

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

The Lip Seal Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. It contains new seals that surround the tub opening and help prevent water leaks. This lip seal kit includes the revised lip seal, grease, O-ring, seal tool, washer kit, and instructions.
