Customer Questions and Answers for High-Temperature Adhesive by Whirlpool

Norm, thanks for the question. This is a whirlpool high-temp adhesive and should work since the original seal has been discontinued by the manufacturer.

Hello Rich, thank you for contacting APP, Yes, a hi-temp adhesive like [WPY055980] would work for this application, and I would recommend cleaning the pads and mating surfaces with alcohol before applying adhesive.

kdpjazzy, We cannot recommend this since it is not part of the manufacturers part list. This is a high temp adhesive but if you get any on the clear glass area it will be hard to remove. This product dries to a gold color so keep that in mind. Good luck.

Mark, Thanks for the question!!! The W10435302 bearing kit includes the adhesive part number WP279368.

Nancy, This high temp adhesive should work in temps of 250 degrees but this does not solidify and is more flexible.

Jeremy, Unfortunately, we do not have the MSDS information available to send on this. This would be more of a rubber cement type of adhesive and will be enough for both front and back seals.

Noah, unfortunately, the manufacturer does not show a high-temperature adhesive being used with the outer glass as it is designed to sit in a glass retainer at the bottom and the handle holds it together at the top.

Hello Desmond, You do not have to remove all of the old adhesive but if it is protruding enough to cause an issue, it should be scraped off with a sharp knife in such a way that the enamel is not removed. The new adhesive will adhere to the old as well as the enamel on the unit.

MB, This is not designed for use on a crockpot.

Tom, You would not want to use the high temp adhesive because it is not food grade quality. the only way to correct this would be to replace the inner door panel which will have the gasket at the bottom.
