Genuine Whirlpool part

The Rubber Washer is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This washer plays a role in ensuring a leak-proof seal at various connection points within the dishwasher, such as at the water inlet valve or hose connections. Its primary function is to prevent water from leaking out of the dishwasher during operation, thereby ensuring efficient and safe use of the appliance.

Over time, rubber washers can deteriorate due to the constant exposure to water and chemicals found in dishwasher detergents.

Symptoms of a bad Rubber Washer in a dishwasher include:

Visible signs of wear or damage to the washer, such as cracks, brittleness, or deformation.
Water leaking from the dishwasher, particularly around areas where hoses and valves connect.
A decrease in dishwasher performance due to water not being contained properly during cycles.

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