The Bellow is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It acts as a flexible seal between the washer's door and drum, preventing water from leaking out during wash and spin cycles. The bellow also helps to absorb vibrations, ensuring smooth and quiet operation of the washer.

Causes of a bad bellow can include wear and tear from frequent use, exposure to harsh detergents, or physical damage from sharp objects or overloading the machine. A damaged bellow can lead to water leaks and operational inefficiencies.

Symptoms of a bad bellow include:

  • Water leaking from the door area during washing
  • Visible cracks, tears, or wear on the bellow
  • Increased noise and vibration during operation
  • Difficulty in maintaining a proper seal when the door is closed

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