The Drum Glide is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It is designed to support the front of the dryer drum as it rotates, allowing the drum to turn smoothly with minimal friction and noise. This is a single glide. Your dryer uses two so it is recommended to replace both at the same time.

Causes of a bad drum glide can include wear and tear from regular use, excessive loads that put undue strain on the drum and its components, or accumulation of lint and debris that can interfere with the glide's movement.

Symptoms of a bad Drum Glide can include:

  • Unusual noises, such as screeching or squealing, during operation
  • Increased difficulty in turning the drum, leading to longer drying times or incomplete cycles
  • Visible wear or damage to the glide itself, indicating it is time for a replacement

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

Jacob for Model Number FEQ1442ES1

The drum for my fridgidaire dryer seized up recently. When I took it apart I noticed that the felt seals and the glides on the drum had fused together. I recently purchased the felt seals and glides for a fridgidaire dryer.I was able to install them, but it still didn't fix my problem. Once again, the felts fused to the glides. I was able to separate them, but now it doesn't sound that smooth when it runs. I was just wondering if there was something I missed. If you have any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.

Hello Jacob. Anytime you replace the felt seals and glides, you should also replace the rear bearing kit 5303281153. It sounds like you need to order and replace the rear bearing kit in the unit.

Troy, if you're sure all the parts were installed properly, and the drum opening isn't damaged or bent, check to make sure the dryer is level in both directions or slightly higher(1/4 in. or less) in the front. this will help place the articles in the center of the drum. Make sure the dryer isn't being overloaded (try 1/2 full or less with wet clothes). Then check the front panel and air duct to make sure the parts aren't "bowed' or bent and they're properly aligned and secured to the cabinet.

Db for Model Number FER641CFS0

We are having issues with our Frigidaire FER641CFS0 front load dryer. Items are getting caught between the drum glide and the felt seal and dragged around when the dryer is running. I noticed there is a larger gap along the bottom between the glide and felt seal and where I think items are getting caught. At this point I'm not sure what the problem might be - whether the felt seal should be replaced, or if the drum is pointing slight upwards to create the gap. I've done a bit of research and see there are the drum glides (which look ok to me), the felt seals (upper and lower), as well as the rear bearing kit that might all be related to this issue. Can you let me know your thoughts?
