Whirlpool Axle, Roller, Pulley Parts

This dishwasher tub wheel mounts to the inner side of the tub and supports the rack track as it moves. Replacing a worn wheel restores smooth glide and helps keep the rack aligned during loading and unloading.

• Supports the rack track on the tub wall
• Keeps the rack moving smoothly and aligned
• Reduces friction and noise during operation
• Failure signs: rack hard to slide, squeaking or grinding, rack tilting or coming off track, cracked/missing wheel

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing
• Pull out the rack and remove track end caps or the rack, as needed, to access the wheel
• Remove the retaining screw/clip, install the new wheel, and verify it spins freely and seats fully
• Reassemble and test rack movement through full travel

The Lower Dishrack Roller Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. As an integral component, the lower dishrack roller assembly supports smooth movement and positioning of the lower dishrack. Its precision ball bearings allow for effortless extension and retraction of the lower rack.

Causes of a bad lower dishrack roller assembly can include wear and tear of bearings over time, stripped or damaged rails, or failure of rollers due to excessive loading.  

Symptoms of a bad lower dishrack roller assembly include:

• Difficulty extending or retracting the lower dishrack  
• Noisy or stuck operation of the lower rack
• Rack failing to remain securely in place during wash cycles
• Dishes shifting or falling during wash due to uneven support

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Kenmore, and some Maytag and GE dishwashers. 

This tub wheel mounts to the dishwasher's inner tub wall and guides the rack as it slides in and out. Replacing a worn wheel restores smooth rack movement and helps prevent binding, derailing, and scraping.

• Attaches to the tub to support and guide rack travel
• Helps keep the rack aligned on its tracks for smooth operation
• Typical failure symptoms: rack hard to slide, rack jumps off track or tilts, scraping/grinding noises, cracked or missing wheel
• Restores proper glide and reduces strain on rack components

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing the appliance
• Remove the rack for access; release the old wheel's clip/fastener from the tub and install the new wheel
• Ensure the wheel spins freely and the rack moves smoothly end-to-end
• Inspect other wheels and related hardware and replace as needed for even wear

A replacement transport wheel assembly that restores smooth rolling for the appliance's transport/support system, making it easier and safer to move or position the unit. Designed to match the OEM fit and function. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, worn, or missing transport/support wheel that can prevent smooth rolling or cause scraping
• Helps the appliance move without binding, catching, or excessive noise during transport or repositioning
• Restores stable support for the component that relies on this wheel to roll or track properly
• Useful when the wheel is visibly damaged, detached, or causing uneven movement

• Disconnect power and follow manufacturer safety instructions before servicing
• Access may require removing an access panel or trim; use hand tools and keep fasteners organized
• Inspect surrounding parts for related wear when replacing the wheel

This bearing helps the appliance's rotating assembly turn smoothly and reduces metal-on-metal wear for quieter, more reliable operation. Replace a worn bearing to address noise and movement issues that affect performance. What it does:

• Supports the drum or tub shaft so it rotates with minimal friction
• Reduces grinding, rumbling, or squeaking noises from the rotating assembly
• Helps prevent excessive wobble or vibration during spin cycles
• Limits metal wear that can lead to leaks or further component damage

• Disconnect power and water before starting work
• Inspect surrounding seals, shafts, and mounting surfaces for wear while replacing the bearing
• Use correct tools and replacement hardware; follow OEM instructions for torque and alignment

This adapter connects the appliance's water supply line to the inlet fitting, providing a secure watertight connection to restore proper water flow. Use it when the original coupling is damaged, cracked, or leaking. What it does:

• Adapts and secures a water supply/hose to the appliance inlet fitting.
• Restores a proper connection to prevent leaking at the hose junction.
• Addresses symptoms such as visible leaks, intermittent water flow, or a loose hose connection.
• Works as a direct replacement for a damaged or corroded inlet adapter.

• Turn off water supply and unplug the appliance before installing.
• Inspect seals and replace any damaged washers or O-rings; tighten fittings by hand then snug with an appropriate tool—do not overtighten.
• Check for leaks after restoring water and power; re-tighten if necessary.
