Felt - Upper (Drum Seal), 1 Piece

4.8 (5)

By: Ge

Part Number: WE09X10013

This upper drum felt is the replacement seal that cushions and guides the dryer drum for quieter operation and smoother rotation. It helps protect the drum edge and prevents clothes from catching where the drum meets the front bulkhead. What it does:

Cushions the drum and reduces metal-on-metal rubbing that causes squeaks or grinding noises
Keeps garments from getting caught between the drum and cabinet edge
Helps maintain proper drum alignment for even rotation
Limits lint and airflow loss at the drum front to support optimal drying performance

What's included: One upper drum felt seal Install notes:

Disconnect power before servicing; for gas dryers also shut off the gas supply and disconnect the gas line per manufacturer instructions
Remove the dryer front panel or bulkhead as required to access and replace the upper felt; keep track of fasteners and orientation
Inspect the drum, drum rollers, glide, and lower felt while servicing and replace any worn parts to prevent premature wear of the new felt

Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You Damaged felt gaskets top & bottom on dryer door face and shattered plastic glides on dryer drum front Kathleen Z. • Moxee , WA • June 10, 2016

I removed the damaged felt strips and all adhesive residue from the dryer door face. Then I installed the new felt strips. The plastic glides snapped into place easily on the drum. Reinstalling the door was a simple operation, and the drum fit snugly on the new felt gaskets. The dryer works great now, runs quietly, and the entire repair cost much less than a service call or purchasing a new dryer. Read more

Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You Loud low frequency continuous grinding/thumping noise Barry M. • Palo Alto , CA • June 01, 2015

The problem turned out to be a loose blower fan rattling around inside the blower housing as the fan blade turned. The fan blade had partially separated from its center located silver bushing that screws onto the motor shaft. There was no way to reseat the fan onto the bushing - the opening in the fan blade was chewed up. And there was no way to get the bushing itself off the motor shaft with the fan blade sitting loosely on it. Removal required: 1) breaking the central part of the fan... Read more
