The Door Shelf Bar End Cap Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. The kit consists of two end caps that secure the door shelf bar in place, ensuring that the shelf stays stable and can support items stored on it.
Causes of a bad end cap can include wear and tear over time, physical damage due to impact, or plastic degradation from repeated use and exposure to varying temperatures. These factors can lead to the end caps becoming loose or broken, compromising the integrity of the door shelf bar.
Symptoms of a bad end cap include:
- Door shelf bar not staying in place
- Items falling off the shelf
- Visible cracks or damage to the end caps
- Difficulty in securing the door shelf bar properly
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Broken shelf bar end cap on whirlpool refrigerator David K. • El Dorado Hills , CA • October 31, 2014
I can't believe that we lived with this shelf bar continually falling off for years due to a broken end cap. Easily found the replacement end cap on AppliancePartsPros for our 18 year old refrigerator. The "repair", if you can call it that, took perhaps 30 seconds -- remove old broken end cap, insert new one. Done. No more shelf bar falling off. One of life's little annoyances just went away.
