This tub-bearing split ring is an OEM replacement part designed for GE washing machines. This part measures 2 inches in diameter. It is positioned between the inner and outer tubs to hold the tub bearing inside the outer tub. The Tub Bearing Split Ring not only supports the tub/hub assembly but also ensures smooth operation.
Symptoms of a bad Tub Bearing Split Ring include:
- Excessive vibration or tub imbalance during spins
- Loud clunking, knocking or grinding sounds
- Reduced spin speeds or inability to achieve high RPMs
- Premature tub or bearing wear requiring replacement
Causes can be extended use over time which leads to wear and fatigue of the split ring material. Cracks or breaks can develop, reducing its stability and load-bearing capacity.
This genuine GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA and some Kenmore front-load models.
NOTE: For the washer outer tub seal order WH02X10383.
