The Drum Assembly is an OEM replacement part for Samsung electric dryers. It is the core component that rotates clothing during tumble drying cycles.
Causes of a faulty drum assembly can include cracks, scratches or rust developing over several years of operation. Improper packing of heavy, wet loads may also contribute to premature wear of spin mechanisms.
Symptoms of issues include:
- Vibration or excess noise during cycles
- Loose, wobbly or misaligned drum fitment
- Slow or inefficient drying times
- Damage to clothing from contact with rough drum interior
This OEM Samsung component is also compatible with some Kenmore dryer models.
