Description
The Screw is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This screw secures the refrigerator door hinge in place, allowing the door operates smoothly and seals properly.
Over time, screws can become loose or go missing during repairs or adjustments, which can lead to a misaligned door, compromised sealing, and increased energy consumption.
Symptoms of a bad screw include:
- The refrigerator door seems misaligned or does not close properly.
- Increased effort needed to open or close the door.
- Unusual gaps around the door seal when closed.
- The door might squeak or make other noises during operation.
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
