This ball bearing helps support a rotating appliance assembly to reduce friction and enable smooth operation. Replacing a worn bearing restores quieter rotation and helps prevent further wear on adjoining parts. What it does:

• Supports and centers a rotating shaft or drum to maintain smooth movement
• Reduces friction between moving metal components for efficient operation
• Can cause squealing, grinding, rubbing or excessive vibration when worn
• Restoring the bearing can stop noise and improve rotation stability

• Disconnect power and follow before beginning any repair
• Use correct tools and replacement procedures to avoid damage to the bearing housing or shaft
• Inspect adjacent seals, shafts, and mounts when replacing the bearing and replace any damaged parts
