A replacement screw used to secure panels and components in compatible GE appliances. Replacing missing or damaged screws restores secure mounting, reduces rattling, and helps keep parts aligned during normal operation. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, brackets, or small appliance components to maintain proper alignment and fit.
• Keeps internal parts secured to reduce vibration, rattling, or movement during use.
• Replaces stripped, rusted, or missing hardware that can cause loose or misaligned panels.
• Small, non-electrical part — does not affect electrical circuits or controls.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before accessing internal parts.
• Use the properly sized screwdriver to avoid stripping the head; hand-start threads to prevent cross-threading.
• Tighten securely but avoid over-torquing; overtightening can strip threads or damage plastic components.
• Keep track of small parts and hardware; replace any damaged or mismatched screws with the correct OEM part.

• Simple hardware replacement — helps prevent secondary damage caused by loose or shifted components.

• Disconnect power or gas (when applicable) before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head; turn until snug—do not overtighten.
• Keep track of small parts and wear eye protection when working in tight spaces.
• If threads are damaged, replace with the correct OEM screw rather than forcing reuse.

Size: 8-32 t. Includes 12 screws.

This fuse holder secures the appliance's thermal/fuse element and provides a stable connection point for the fuse, helping maintain proper circuit protection and reliable operation. What it does:

• Holds and secures the fuse or thermal cutoff in the appliance circuit
• Provides stable electrical contact to ensure reliable current flow
• Helps prevent intermittent power from a loose or damaged fuse connection
• Commonly replaced when the fuse or its mount is cracked, melted, or otherwise damaged

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the fuse holder
• Replace only with the correct part number for your appliance; verify fit before installation
• Use basic hand tools; avoid forcing terminals to prevent damage

This replacement screw restores secure fastening for appliance components, helping stop loose panels and rattles. Use it to replace a missing or stripped fastener and keep assemblies aligned and stable. What it does

• Fastens panels, brackets, or small assemblies to maintain proper alignment

• Replaces missing, worn, or stripped screws that allow components to shift
• Simple hardware solution that restores secure connections

• Disconnect power and water before beginning any repair
• Use the correct screwdriver or nut driver to avoid cam-out or damage
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten until snug
• Do not overtighten—excess torque can strip threads or damage parts

This is a 10-16 x 1/2 screw used to fasten small appliance components and panels; it restores secure attachment and helps stop rattling or loose parts for reliable operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, and small assemblies to the appliance
• Prevents movement that can cause noise, vibration or misalignment
• Restores proper fit where a worn or missing screw caused loose parts
• Matches OEM size so replacement fits original mounting points

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head
