The Strap is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It is a component located inside the washer tub that holds onto and spins the outer tub during the wash cycle. The strap washer plays an important role in securing the outer tub in place while continuously channeling rotational force to drive the washing action and clean clothes effectively. 

Causes of a bad strap can include wear and tear from years of use, damage due to impact or mishandling, or degradation from chemical exposure. 

Symptoms of a bad strap include:

• Excessive vibration or shaking during spin cycles
• Noise or grinding sounds coming from the washer tub area 
• The outer tub wobbling or moving more than usual
• Uneven agitation that fails to thoroughly clean all clothes

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

This tub ring, also called the tub cover or splash ring, snaps around the top of the wash basket to contain water and suds. Replacing a cracked ring helps stop over-the-rim leaks and protects fabrics from rough edges.

• Acts as a splash guard at the rim to keep wash water and suds inside during wash and spin
• Provides a smooth upper edge to help prevent fabric snagging on broken plastic
• Restores a secure seal at the tub opening when the original ring is cracked or warped
• Typical signs of failure: water splashing or leaking from the top, visible cracks, or the ring not locking firmly to the tub

• Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing
• Open the top/console as required by your model to access the tub opening
• Release the old ring's locking tabs; transfer any attached retainers/hoses to the new ring if present
• Seat the new ring evenly and snap all tabs fully into place; run a quick test to check for leaks

The Screw is an OEM component compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw secures the rear panel onto the cabinet frame, ensuring a sturdy connection between housing components.  Proper installation is critical for the washer's structural integrity.

Causes of a bad screw include corrosion from repeated water exposure or stresses from years of use. Loosening can occur from vibrations weakening the threads over time. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• Rear panel detaching from frame opening gaps
• Increased noise and vibrations from a compromised seal  
• Stress on other connections from improper mounting points
• Potential leak paths from openings near hoses or tub areas
