Description

This dampener cushions and stabilizes the washer tub during spin cycles to reduce vibration and noise for smoother operation. It replaces worn or damaged suspension dampeners to help restore proper tub balance and quieter performance. What it does:

• Absorbs and dampens tub movement during agitation and spin to reduce vibration and noise.
• Helps maintain proper tub alignment for more even spinning and less wobble.
• Commonly replaced when the washer rocks, thumps, or makes excessive noise during spin.
• Works with the washer's suspension system to protect other components from shock and wear.

What's included:

• 1 dampener

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before beginning any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the washer cabinet or front panel; follow OEM service instructions.
• Inspect mounting studs and clips for wear; replace as needed to ensure a secure fit.
