The Gasket-FIP (BLK) is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This gasket is designed to create a tight seal around the refrigerator or freezer door, helping to maintain the internal temperature by preventing cold air from escaping and warm air from entering.

Causes of a bad gasket can include wear and tear over time, cracks or tears from frequent door openings and closings, and deformation due to improper cleaning or handling. A compromised gasket can lead to energy inefficiency, increased frost build-up, and higher utility bills.

Symptoms of a bad gasket include:

• Warm spots inside the refrigerator or freezer
• Excessive frost or condensation buildup
• The door not sealing properly or gaps in the seal
• Higher than usual energy consumption

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

Note: For RH Door. For BLACK gasket, order W11368721.

The Refrigerator Door Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part forms a seal around the refrigerator or freezer door, ensuring that cold air stays inside and warm air stays out. By maintaining a tight seal, the gasket plays a critical role in the appliance's energy efficiency, helping to keep food fresh and safe while minimizing energy consumption. 

Over time, door gaskets can lose their elasticity, get torn, or wear out, leading to gaps between the gasket and the refrigerator frame. 

Symptoms of a bad Refrigerator Door Gasket include:

• Visible cracks, tears, or wear in the gasket
• Condensation or frost buildup near the door edges
• The refrigerator or freezer door does not close as tightly as it should
• Increased energy consumption as the refrigerator works harder to maintain temperature
