This is a replacement hex-washer-head screw used to fasten panels and components on compatible Whirlpool appliances. It restores proper fastening to eliminate loose parts, rattles, or misaligned assemblies for safe, stable operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, and small assemblies to the appliance frame
• Prevents vibration-related noise and movement from loose fasteners
• Replaces missing, stripped, or corroded screws to restore fit and alignment
• Simple hardware fix that supports other component repairs

• Unplug the appliance or shut off power before servicing
• Use the correct-size hex or socket driver to avoid stripping the head
• Thread carefully and tighten until snug—do not overtighten to avoid damaging parts
• Inspect mating threads and replace any that are damaged

The Alumilastic Cement is an OEM part for Whirlpool appliances, typically used in refrigerators and freezers. It serves as a thermal mastic compound, designed to provide a secure and heat-conductive bond between various components, such as evaporator coils and the interior walls of the appliance. 

Causes of a bad alumilastic cement can include drying out, cracking, or losing its adhesive properties over time. This can occur due to age, exposure to temperature fluctuations, or improper application. When the cement fails, it can lead to poor thermal conductivity and decreased cooling efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad alumilastic cement include:

• Reduced cooling performance
• Unusual noises from the cooling system
• Components becoming loose or detaching
• Increased energy consumption

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

The Roller Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This assembly includes the rollers that support and allow the refrigerator to be moved easily for cleaning or maintenance. Proper functioning rollers ensure smooth movement and stability of the appliance.

Symptoms of a bad roller assembly include:

• Difficulty in moving the refrigerator
• Uneven or unstable placement of the appliance
