The Retaining Ring is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers and washing machines. This retaining ring holds the rear wheels on the axels of the washer or dryer. 

Symptoms of a bad retaining ring can include wear and tear over time, damage due to accident or impact, or corrosion affecting the structural integrity.

Causes of a bad retaining ring dryer include:

• Excessive vibration or movement of the drum during operation 
• Noise or banging sounds from loose components   
• Deformation or cracking of the retaining ring itself
• The dryer door not closing properly

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

This metal ring holds the wash basket securely in place inside your washing machine and prevents it from moving during spin cycles. It maintains proper alignment of the drum and drive components. Replace this ring if your washer vibrates excessively, makes grinding noises, or if the basket moves loosely during operation.
