The Lip Seal Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. It contains new seals that surround the tub opening and help prevent water leaks. This lip seal kit includes the revised lip seal, grease, O-ring, seal tool, washer kit, and instructions. The rear bearings are sold separately. Their part numbers are WP22003441 and WP22002934.
Symptoms of failed lip seals include:
- Water leaks from around the washer opening or tub area
- Puddles or standing water underneath after a cycle
- Visible cracks or splits in existing seals
Causes may involve standard wear from machine operation, rubbing against the tub surface. Mineral buildup can also shorten seal lifespan if not periodically cleaned.
This OEM Whirlpool part fits models by Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and select Kenmore washing machines.
