Replacement washer for trash compactor assemblies. Installs between fasteners and components to distribute load and prevent damage. Order if worn or missing.
Replace your trash compactor's broken or stripped drive gear assembly. Includes gears, shafts, and components that transfer motor power to the ram mechanism.
The compactor failed with the ram down, so the drawer wouldn't open which in turn made the mounting brackets inaccessible. This necessitated sliding a thin oscillating saw blade between the cabinet face frame and the counter top to cut through the brackets. It was then possible to roll the unit out and place it on its side. I removed the five screws holding the bottom pan in place, dropped the pan exposing the gear/chain train. The large gear was cracked from shaft out to the edge. One of... Read more

This is a stainless steel overlay insert that covers the front control panel area of a trash compactor. It provides the finished exterior surface around the control buttons and gives the unit a clean, built-in appearance. Replace this insert if it is scratched, dented, discolored, or if the original panel overlay has become damaged or is peeling.
This precision thrust race serves as the hardened bearing surface for axial loads in a rotating mechanism. Replacing a worn race reduces friction and noise, helping restore smooth, consistent motion and protect companion thrust bearings and washers from accelerated wear.
I bought new thrust races, a drive gear kit, bearings and a sprocket. When the bearing went out, the thrust races, washers, one bottom plate, and a sprocket was eaten up by the the chain due to the slack being created. I followed the video for the Drive Gear Kit repair and everything went together well. I did have to remove the tracks from inside the compactor in order to remove the cardboard liner that "hides" the drive rods. Additionally, be careful to not over-tension the chain when... Read more
