• Supports and mounts the motor to the appliance chassis to keep the motor properly aligned

• Reduces motor movement that can cause rubbing, vibration, or unusual noise
• Can address symptoms such as excessive vibration, banging, or misaligned motor movement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Follow the appliance's service manual or exploded parts diagram for correct removal and reassembly
• Use appropriate tools and take care with sharp sheet-metal edges
• Retain or transfer any original mounting hardware unless new fasteners are explicitly listed

The Bulkhead is an OEM component for Whirlpool dryers. As a structural panel, it secures the rear of the appliance while enabling airflow behind sliding doors. 

Formed from durable composite, the lightweight bulkhead installs easily into precise slotted tracks inside the chassis. This allows full retraction during maintenance without removing additional panels. 

Causes of a faulty bulkhead can include cracked welds or screws stripping their anchors from extreme force vibration over many years of use.

Causes of a bad bulkhead can include:

• Noisy rattling and resonance as the dryer operates  
• Restricted door movement from misalignment
• Inability to fully access internal components  
• Excessive ducting leaks from gasket compression failure

Replace yours with this genuine Whirlpool bulkhead to restore smooth, tight operation. Compatible with Kenmore, Maytag, and KitchenAid dryers.
