Roper Agitator Parts

This agitator drive shaft sits inside the washer's gearcase and transfers motion to the agitator. Replacing a worn or stripped shaft restores firm engagement and reliable wash action while helping reduce slip and grinding during agitation.

• Transfers oscillating motion from the transmission to the agitator
• Provides the splined interface that engages the agitator/coupler
• Common symptoms include no agitation, intermittent/slipping agitation, or grinding/clicking from the gearcase
• Visible wear, rounded splines, or a bent shaft can lead to a loose or non-moving agitator

• Disconnect power and water; use proper PPE
• Requires removing the cabinet and gearcase; drain and reseal the gearcase per service procedures
• Keep gears, spacers, and clips in order; reassemble in the original orientation
• Inspect mating parts (agitator coupler/splines, drive block, seals) and replace if worn

This washer agitator is the central wash-motion component. It mounts to the drive hub and churns laundry through water and detergent, restoring proper turnover when the original agitator is cracked, stripped, or missing.

• Creates the back-and-forth wash action that moves clothes through the wash water
• Restores proper turnover and cleaning when the old agitator is damaged or worn
• Typical symptoms: no or weak agitation, clothes not moving, clicking/ratcheting from the agitator area, or a loose/wobbly agitator
• Visual issues may include cracks, stripped splines, or a unit that lifts off easily

• Disconnect power and shut off water before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove the softener dispenser and cap, then the center bolt/retainer; pull the old agitator straight up
• Align splines and seat the new agitator fully; reuse existing bolt and cap unless damaged
• Do not overtighten the fastener; run a short test cycle to ensure proper agitation

This is the central wash-action component in select top-load washers. Replacing a worn or damaged agitator restores proper agitation so clothes circulate through water and detergent for consistent cleaning performance. What it does:

• Converts drive motion into the back-and-forth action that moves laundry
• Circulates clothes to improve soil removal and reduce tangling
• Replaces cracked, stripped, or loose agitators that cause weak or no agitation
• Common symptoms include poor cleaning, clothes not moving during wash, or an agitator that wobbles or spins freely by hand

• 1 agitator assembly

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Remove the fabric softener dispenser and inner cap to access the center bolt
• Remove the bolt, lift off the old agitator, seat the new agitator on the splined shaft, and secure the bolt
• Reinstall the cap/dispenser; reuse original hardware as applicable and check for a secure fit before testing

This agitator base is the lower section of the washer's agitator. It couples to the drive shaft to move clothes through water and detergent, restoring proper turnover and wash action when the original base is worn, cracked, or stripped.

• Provides the oscillating motion that circulates laundry and detergent for even cleaning
• Maintains proper connection and alignment with the drive shaft
• Helps reduce tangling by rolling clothes over during the wash
• Typical symptoms include no or weak agitation, clothes not circulating, or a wobbling agitator

• Disconnect power to the washer before servicing
• Remove the fabric softener dispenser and agitator cap; remove the center agitator bolt and lift the agitator off the shaft
• Separate the old lower base from the upper section; install the new base, aligning splines, and seat fully
• Reinstall the bolt, cap, and dispenser; run a quick test cycle to ensure proper agitation

This is the washer's agitator assembly with a built-in filter. Replacing a worn or damaged agitator restores proper turnover of clothes and helps capture lint during the wash for cleaner results.

• Drives the back-and-forth wash action that circulates and rolls laundry
• Integrated filter helps collect lint and debris from wash water
• Worn fins or a stripped hub can cause weak or no agitation and poor cleaning
• A missing/damaged filter may lead to excess lint on clothing

• Disconnect power before servicing; turn off water supply for safety.
• Remove the softener cup/center cap; take out the center bolt or retainer if equipped.
• Lift the old agitator straight up; align splines and press the new agitator fully into place.
• Reinstall the fastener and cap; run a short cycle to confirm proper agitation.

This agitator replaces the top agitator in compatible top-load washers to restore proper fabric movement and cleaning action. It helps re-establish the washer's normal wash motion and reduces poor wash performance caused by a damaged agitator. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, worn or broken top agitator to restore wash motion and even water circulation
• Helps fix symptoms such as clothes not tumbling, uneven cleaning, or excessive vibration during the wash cycle
• Transfers torque from the transmission to move clothes through the wash water
• Works with the factory agitator coupler/bolt and transmission components when installed correctly

• One top agitator assembly

• Disconnect power and water supply before beginning any repair
• Remove the fabric softener dispenser and the agitator cap to access the retaining bolt
• Tighten the retaining bolt to the manufacturer's specified torque and confirm proper engagement with the cam/coupler
