This outer tub is the main water-holding housing for a top-load washing machine. It supports the inner basket and seals the wash chamber, helping the washer contain water and direct proper wash action. What it does:

• Holds wash water and surrounds the inner basket during fill, wash, and rinse cycles
• Supports the inner tub and transmission/agitator assembly for stable operation
• Prevents leaks by maintaining the sealed wash chamber; a cracked tub can cause visible water under the machine
• Helps reduce noise and vibration by keeping the wash components aligned

• One outer tub

• Disconnect power and water supply before beginning any repair
• Drain any remaining water from the tub and remove the washer cabinet or top to access the tub
• Transfer any components (basket, agitator, seals, mounting hardware) only if explicitly listed in your parts list; replace worn seals and gaskets when reinstalling
