The Screw is an OEM component specifically designed for LG ranges. It plays an important mounting and fastening role by securely attaching internal components together.

The screws utilized within the range cabinet ensure sturdy construction and reliable mechanical cohesion. They allow for simple assembly and proper alignment of inner parts. 

Causes of bad screws can include wear and tear over time, or damage from overtightening leading to stripped threads or heads.

Symptoms of bad screws include:

• Loose, detached, or misaligned inner parts  
• Hardware that does not fit or interface as designed
• Unintended noises or movement during the operation

This OEM LG replacement part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore and some GE ranges utilizing similar fasteners. Replacement ensures the range remains mechanically sound.
