• Designed to fit designated mounting points for compatible models

• Unplug the refrigerator before beginning work
• Open the door to access the handle mounting points
• Use the correct screwdriver/Allen tool to avoid stripping the head
• Start threads by hand and tighten snugly—do not overtighten

A molded gasket that seals the evaporator coil cover to reduce air bypass and help direct cold air over the coils for more consistent cooling. Replaces a worn or damaged seal to help restore proper airflow and reduce frost buildup. What it does:

• Seals the evaporator coil cover to prevent warm air from bypassing the coil
• Helps maintain proper airflow for consistent cooling performance
• Reduces frost or ice buildup caused by air leaks around the coil cover
• Prevents condensation and dripping by keeping air where it belongs

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Thaw any frost/ice accumulation and remove the evaporator access cover per manufacturer instructions
• Clean mating surfaces, then press the seal into place ensuring a full, even fit around the cover

This is a replacement screw used to secure panels, trim and other appliance components to restore proper fit and reduce rattling. It matches the OEM part form and fastening function for compatible Frigidaire appliances. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets or trim to maintain proper alignment and appearance
• Replaces missing, stripped or damaged screws that cause loose parts or vibration
• Helps prevent rattling and keeps components seated for safe operation
• Restores original fastening where a worn or corroded screw failed

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair to avoid electrical hazard
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit and hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten until snug; avoid overtightening which can strip threads or damage panels
• If thread damage is present, replace with the correct OEM fastener (do not force)

This genuine replacement screw secures panels and small components on select appliances, restoring fit and reducing rattles or loose parts. It's a direct-fit fastener where the original #8-18 x 3/8 screw is missing or worn. What it does:

• Fastens trim, panels or brackets to appliance frames and components
• Restores secure fit to stop rattling or misaligned parts
• Replaces stripped, rusted or missing screws that prevent proper assembly
• Matches original thread size and length for correct engagement

• Use the correct driver and engage threads straight to avoid stripping
• Do not overtighten; stop when the part is snug and secure
• Replace any damaged mating hardware for best fit
• Unplug the appliance or shut off power when accessing internal fasteners

This genuine replacement part is an evaporator used in refrigerators. The evaporator is the part that exchanges heat to cool the refrigerator. It is the component of the refrigerator that absorbs the heat from the air inside, turning it cool through absorption. If the refrigerator is no longer cooling properly, this could mean it's time for a new evaporator.This is a genuine replacement evaporator compatible with Frigidaire, Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Westinghouse brand refrigerators.

This spring-style hose clamp secures flexible appliance hoses and helps prevent leaks by holding hose ends tightly to fittings. Reliable, low-profile design for use on drain, water, or vent hoses where a strong, consistent grip is needed. What it does:

• Provides a spring-tensioned grip to keep hoses seated on fittings and reduce leaks
• Commonly used on flexible drain or water hoses and small vent lines
• Helps maintain proper connection under normal vibration and thermal cycling
• Replaces worn, stretched, or corroded clamps that no longer hold tension

• One spring hose clamp (exact quantity as sold)

• Use pliers to expand the clamp, slide into position, then release to seat on the fitting
• Inspect hose ends and fittings for wear; replace hose if damaged before installing clamp
• Wear eye protection when compressing the clamp; keep fingers clear of the clamp's edges
• Tighten only as needed—over-compressing can damage the hose

Color: Black/natural. Nylon

This heat exchanger suction line kit replaces a damaged or corroded suction line assembly to restore proper refrigerant flow and heat transfer in the cooling system. It helps maintain consistent compartment temperatures and system efficiency. What it does:

• Transfers heat from the refrigerant suction line so the compressor and evaporator operate correctly
• Replaces cracked, kinked, or corroded tubing that can cause refrigerant loss or reduced cooling
• Helps address symptoms such as warm or inconsistent temperatures, visible oil or residue at fittings, or abnormal frost/ice patterns
• Restores a sealed refrigerant path after tubing damage or when corrosion has compromised the line

• Intended for qualified service technicians only; system access requires certified refrigerant handling
• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing and follow all safety precautions
• Installation may require brazing, flare fittings, or specialty tools; verify leak-tight connections and pressure-test per OEM procedures
• Evacuate and recharge the refrigerant system to OEM specifications after installation

This mechanical temperature control thermostat replaces the factory temperature sensing switch to restore proper refrigerator temperature regulation. It helps the appliance maintain set temperatures for safe food storage and normal cooling performance. What it does:

• Senses cabinet temperature and opens/closes the cooling circuit to regulate compressor run time.
• Commonly used when the refrigerator runs constantly or cycles too quickly.
• Works as the user-adjustable temperature control for manual-style refrigerator controls.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Handle the sensing bulb/capillary tube gently; avoid kinks or sharp bends.
• Verify correct placement of the sensing bulb in the evaporator/probe clip per OEM location.

This hex head screw secures panels, brackets, and small components on appliances, restoring proper fit and stability. It's a direct replacement fastener when an original mounting screw is missing, loose, or damaged. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, trim, and internal components to prevent rattling or movement
• Replaces stripped, missing, or damaged mounting screws that cause loose parts or misalignment
• Restores reliable mechanical fastening so doors and panels sit flush and operate correctly
• Works as a general-purpose appliance mounting screw when original fasteners are worn

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Match the screw to the original location and thread engagement; start by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Use the correct driver or socket for the hex head and tighten until snug—do not overtighten
• If the original hole or threads are damaged, repair or replace the mating hardware before installing the screw

This is a replacement mounting screw used to secure the defrost timer assembly to the refrigerator control housing, restoring proper fastening and preventing the timer from shifting or vibrating during operation. What it does:

• Secures the defrost timer to the control housing so the timer stays in position.
• Prevents vibration or movement that can cause intermittent contact or noisy operation.
• Helps maintain reliable defrost cycle timing by keeping the timer properly aligned.
• Addresses symptoms such as a loose or missing fastener, rattling behind the control panel, or a timer that shifts when the door is opened.

• Unplug the appliance before starting work to prevent electrical shock.
• Access the control housing or timer bracket per your model's service instructions.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit; do not overtighten—stop when snug to avoid stripping.
• Retain removed hardware for reference and compare screw length/threads before installing.
