Description

Replacement bulkhead that supports the front of the dryer drum and helps maintain correct drum alignment and airflow. Restores stable drum rotation and reduces rubbing, noise, and air leaks for more reliable drying performance. What it does:

• Supports the front of the dryer drum and provides a mounting point for the front drum seal/bearing.
• Helps maintain proper drum alignment to prevent rubbing, wobbling, or uneven wear.
• Seals the front of the cabinet to help direct airflow through the drum and vent system.
• Commonly replaced when customers experience loud rubbing noises, visible drum misalignment, or air leaks from the front of the dryer.

What's included: One bulkhead. Install notes:

• Turn off and disconnect electrical power and shut off gas supply before servicing.
• Installation typically requires removing the dryer front panel and drum; have the correct tools available and work on a flat surface.
• Inspect seals, bearing, and mounting hardware while replacing the bulkhead and replace any worn components.
