This replacement part is an ice auger blade, and it is intended for use in different types of appliances. This is a genuine replacement part made by General Electric. Ice auger blades are usually found in ice maker assemblies and are used during the ice-making and dispensing process. These blades are what are used when the user is in need of shaved or crushed ice. The mechanism takes full ice cubes and cuts the ice cubes down to create the different types of ice. A new ice auger blade might be needed if the user noticed that the current blades are dull or unable to cut ice. It is possible that the blades become dull over time after many years of use, so replacing them might be a good idea. Be sure the power is completely off before attempting to repair this part.This ice auger blade is sourced directly from the manufacturer and is a genuine OEM replacement part. Note that this part is sold individually.
