Parts for Whirlpool GC5000XE: 01 - Section Parts

This mounting gasket creates a tight, cushioned seal where a component attaches to its housing or bracket. Replacing a worn seal helps stop leaks and rattles while restoring a secure, reliable connection at the mounting point.

• Forms a seal between two mounting surfaces to help prevent leaks or seepage
• Cushions and isolates vibration for quieter operation
• Helps maintain proper alignment of the mounted component
• Replace if the gasket is cracked, flattened, brittle, or no longer sealing

• Disconnect power and shut off water or gas, if applicable
• Note the gasket's orientation before removal
• Clean and dry both mating surfaces; remove all old gasket material and residue
• Seat the new gasket evenly; reassemble and tighten fasteners snugly without overcompressing; test for leaks/operation
