Nautilus Parts

This molded switch insulator protects and positions a control switch by keeping wiring and terminals electrically isolated from the appliance cabinet. It helps restore proper switch fit and prevents shorting or chafing of switch wiring. What it does:

• Keeps switch terminals and wiring insulated from metal chassis to prevent electrical contact
• Holds the switch securely in its mounting location for reliable operation
• Helps stop arcing, burning marks, or intermittent switch function caused by a damaged insulator
• Restores correct clearance between the switch and surrounding components

• One switch insulator

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Typically presses or clips into place around the switch housing; no wiring changes required
• Inspect switch and wiring for damage while replacing the insulator; replace any damaged components

This is a replacement mounting nut that secures components to their mating studs or shafts, restoring proper fit and preventing looseness that can cause noise or misalignment. Use it to replace a worn, stripped, or missing nut. What it does:

• Fastens parts to studs or shafts to keep assemblies secure and aligned.
• Prevents wobbling, rattling, and reduced performance caused by a loose or missing nut.
• Restores reliable mechanical connection after thread damage or corrosion.
• Works where a standard hex-style fastening nut is required by the OEM design.

• One replacement mounting nut.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before beginning work.
• Verify correct stud engagement and thread direction before tightening.
• Use the proper-sized wrench and tighten to the manufacturer's recommended torque; avoid over-tightening to prevent thread damage.
• If threads are damaged, replace the mating stud or use an approved repair kit—do not force a nut onto stripped threads.
