This lock nut secures appliance components and resists loosening from vibration. Replacing a stripped, rusted, or missing nut restores a firm, reliable connection to reduce noise and prevent parts from shifting or backing off.

• Secures brackets, shafts, pulleys, panels, or other hardware as designed by the manufacturer
• Helps prevent fasteners from loosening due to vibration and thermal cycling
• Common fix for rattling/vibration noises and components that work loose over time
• Replaces damaged, rounded, or missing original nut to restore proper fit

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water supplies before servicing
• Remove the worn nut with the appropriate wrench or socket
• Start the new nut by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten securely—do not overtighten
• Inspect the mating bolt/stud and any washers; replace if worn or damaged

This ground screw secures the appliance grounding conductor to the chassis for a reliable electrical ground connection, helping maintain safety and proper operation. It's a direct-fit fastener used where a dedicated ground screw is required. What it does

• Fastens the grounding conductor to the appliance frame to maintain a secure earth/ground connection.
• Helps prevent electrical shock and reduces risk of stray voltage on the chassis.
• Addresses symptoms like intermittent or absent grounding and loose or corroded ground connections.
• Used wherever the original equipment grounding screw has been lost, damaged, or corroded.

• Disconnect power at the breaker and unplug the appliance before starting any work.
• Only attach to designated grounding points on the chassis; ensure the mating surface is clean and free of paint or corrosion.
• Use the correct driver and moderate hand torque—do not overtighten to avoid stripping threads.

This 1/4-20 nut secures related fasteners in appliance assemblies to keep components aligned and stable. It's a direct-fit replacement when the original nut is worn, stripped, or missing. What it does:

• Threads onto a 1/4-20 bolt or stud to lock parts together
• Restores tight mechanical connections that reduce vibration and noise
• Helps maintain proper alignment of panels, brackets, or linkage
• Commonly replaced when the original nut is rounded, corroded, or loose

• One 1/4-20 nut

• Use the correct 1/4-20 bolt or stud size and thread engagement
• Tighten to manufacturer torque if specified; avoid over-tightening
• Inspect adjoining parts (bolt, washer, bracket) for wear before reassembly
• Turn off and unplug the appliance before performing repairs

This 10-32 x 3/8 machine screw secures panels and components in many appliances where a small, threaded fastener is required. It replaces stripped, missing, or loose screws to restore stable assembly and reduce vibration. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, and small components using 10-32 unified threads
• Restores secure mounting when screws are missing, stripped, or loose
• Helps stop rattling, misalignment, and intermittent part contact caused by loose fasteners
• Works wherever a 10-32 x 3/8 machine screw is specified by the manufacturer

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use the correct size screwdriver or nut driver to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten until snug; avoid over-tightening which can strip threads or crack plastic
• Replace with the same size and thread spec to ensure proper fit and function

The Dryer Drum Glide is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. It is designed to facilitate smooth rotation and movement of the dryer drum during operation. The glide supports the drum, reducing friction and ensuring proper alignment.

Causes of a bad dryer drum glide can include wear and tear over time, exposure to excessive heat or vibration, or damage from foreign objects or improper installation.

Symptoms of a bad dryer drum glide:

• Loud rumbling or grinding noises during the drying cycle
• Excessive vibration or shaking of the dryer
• Difficulty in rotating the drum manually
• Uneven drying or clothing becoming tangled

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

This terminal block provides a secure connection point for the appliance's main power and incoming wiring, restoring reliable electrical contact and preventing loose or arcing connections. What it does:

• Creates a stable, screw-down connection for incoming power wires and internal leads
• Helps prevent intermittent power, arcing, or burning at the connection point
• Used where the power cord or internal harness attaches to the appliance chassis
• Commonly replaced when terminals are loose, melted, corroded, or show signs of overheating

What's included:

• One terminal block

Install notes:

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before starting any work
• Take a photo of existing wiring before removal to ensure correct reconnection
• Reuse existing screws or replace with equivalent hardware; tighten firmly but avoid overtightening
• If terminals show heat damage or corrosion on mating connectors, replace both the block and affected connectors
