The Drying Rack is an OEM part for Whirlpool steam dryers. It provides a flat, stable surface for drying clothes during steam cycles. As steam rises through the rack, it penetrates fabrics to release wrinkles faster while retaining moisture for a smoother finish. 

Symptoms of a bad drying rack include:

• Items not drying properly or evenly during steam cycles
• Excessive wrinkling or fabric deformation 
• Shorter fabric life due to over-drying
• Lack of steam penetration and wrinkle release 

Causes of drying rack failure can be cracking or warping of the plastic rack surface over multiple heat cycles. Mineral buildup from hard water may also reduce steam penetration.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Screw is an OEM component compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw secures the rear panel onto the cabinet frame, ensuring a sturdy connection between housing components.  Proper installation is critical for the washer's structural integrity.

Causes of a bad screw include corrosion from repeated water exposure or stresses from years of use. Loosening can occur from vibrations weakening the threads over time. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• Rear panel detaching from frame opening gaps
• Increased noise and vibrations from a compromised seal  
• Stress on other connections from improper mounting points
• Potential leak paths from openings near hoses or tub areas

This OEM Whirlpool replacement screw helps maintain a tight panel closure. It is compatible with additional brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
