Kenmore Dishwasher 587.71611 (58771611, 587 71611) Parts

A cage nut used to secure panels, brackets, or components where a captive threaded fastener is needed. Replaces worn or missing clip nuts to restore a solid attachment and prevent loose or rattling parts. What it does

• Provides a captive, threaded anchor for screws in thin sheet metal or slot-style mounting points.
• Holds control panels, trim pieces, or internal brackets firmly in place.
• Helps stop vibrating, rattling, or shifting caused by a missing or damaged nut.
• Allows screws to thread in securely where a weld nut or tapped hole isn't available.

• Always unplug or disconnect power before working on the appliance.
• Access the mounting area and remove any trim or panels blocking the slot or opening.
• Snap the cage nut into the slot or over the edge until it engages; then thread the screw in carefully.
