This thrust ring is a small spacer that controls end-play on a shaft or gear, keeping parts aligned and reducing friction. Replacing a worn ring restores smoother, quieter operation and helps prevent premature wear in the assembly.

• Maintains axial spacing and limits end-play in rotating assemblies
• Reduces friction and metal-to-metal contact between components
• Helps stabilize shafts/gears to minimize noise and vibration
• Replace if you notice scraping/grinding sounds, wobble, or visible wear on the old ring

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Refer to your model's parts diagram to confirm orientation and stack order with any spacers/washers
• Clean the shaft and mating surfaces; replace any companion parts that show severe wear
• After reassembly, check for smooth rotation and proper end-play before returning to service

This vacuum break is the washer's water-inlet anti-siphon fitting. It maintains a required air gap so the tub fills properly without drawing used water back into the supply, helping prevent leaks and backflow issues.

• Maintains an air gap at the inlet to prevent backflow/siphoning into household water lines
• Helps ensure consistent, unobstructed water flow into the tub
• Replaces a cracked, clogged, or leaking vacuum break at the fill area
• Common symptoms include leaks from the rear/top during fill, visible cracks, or restricted/noisy fill

• Unplug the appliance and shut off both water supplies before servicing
• Access the fill/inlet area; note hose routing and part orientation
• Remove hose clamps/hoses and the old vacuum break; install the new part and secure clamps
• Restore water and power, then run a fill test and check carefully for leaks

This retainer ring is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for use on front load washing machines to hold the boot seal in place. The boot seal is the gasket that seals the washing machine when the door is closed to prevent water from leaking. The retainer ring is located flush against the boot seal and has either a spring clamp or screw clamp that secures it. Over time, this ring may become damaged due to the washing machine's normal use and age. If the ring is not tight, the washing machine could leak when in use. If water is coming from the door, it is a good idea to inspect and replace the retainer ring and possibly the boot as well.Unplug the washing machine to prevent electrocution. Remove the front panel, the detergent dispenser, and the kickplate to access the retainer ring. Locate the clamp on the ring and loosen it. Remove the retainer ring and set it to the side. Inspect the boot and then install the new retainer ring. Tighten the clamp and reassemble the washing machine. This retainer ring is sold as an individual unit. It is designed specifically for washing machines manufactured by Whirlpool.
