Whirlpool Dishwasher Gasket & Seal

The Foam Insulation Strip is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool built-in dishwashers. Located sealing the door perimeter, this compressible foam strip cushions closing motions while blocking entry of outside air and moisture during cycles.

Causes result from compression damage during repeated door shuts detaching the adhesive backing. Exposure to penetrating steam can also degrade polyurethane material integrity.

Symptoms of failure involve:

• Gaps allowing air and heat loss to compromise drying
• Drafts carrying soil and residue back into cleaned dishes
• Accelerated tub corrosion from an uninsulated interior environment

This is a genuine Whirlpool OEM replacement this part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air and some Kenmore models.

The Front Bearing and Seal Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. This kit includes the front bearing and seal for the dryer drum, which work together to provide smooth operation and prevent premature wear.

Causes of a bad front bearing and seal can include regular wear and tear from normal use, heavy loads that place extra strain on the bearings, or debris accumulation causing increased friction.

Symptoms of issues include:

• Noisy or grinding sounds coming from the drum area
• Vibration noticed during the operation
• Difficulty turning or rotating the dryer drum by hand
• Reduced efficiency and longer drying times

This OEM replacement kit is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Tub Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It seals the space between the washer tub and the surrounding door frame to prevent leaks. During wash cycles, water, heat, and detergent can degrade this rubber gasket material over time.

Causes of a bad tub gasket include cracks, compression, or perforations from years of expansion and contraction during wash cycles. Food debris or minerals caught in the channel may also inhibit proper sealing.

Symptoms of a defective tub gasket are:

• Puddles or standing water inside or outside the dishwasher
• Water leaks visible around the tub and door framework
• Wet floors after extended use

This OEM replacement gasket is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore dishwashers. 

The Tub Inlet Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It ensures a watertight seal at the point where water enters the tub, preventing leaks and maintaining efficient water flow during the wash cycle.

Causes of a bad tub inlet gasket include wear and tear from regular use, damage from harsh cleaning chemicals, or drying out and cracking due to age.  

Symptoms of a bad tub inlet gasket include:

• Water leaking from the front or bottom of the dishwasher
• Poor cleaning results due to insufficient water pressure
• Visible cracks or wear on the gasket
• Unusual noises from the dishwasher during the filling cycle

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

The Deflector is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. Located in the lower corners of the tub, this component works to prevent leaks by keeping water from entering the cracks along the tub edges.

Causes of a bad corner deflector can include cracks, chips, or breaks from repeated impact or stress over time. Mineral buildup can also cause deflectors to warp or become misshapen, reducing their effectiveness.

Symptoms of a bad corner deflector include:

• Water leaks or moisture inside the cabinet below the dishwasher
• Puddles or drips near tub corners after cycles
• Mineral residue or pooling in lower tub corners

Replacing the corner deflector with a new OEM part restores a tight seal to prevent water from entering cracks and causing leaks or damaged components inside the cabinet.

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

• Seals the joint at the pump outlet to prevent water leakage
• Helps maintain proper circulation by keeping the pump discharge airtight/watertight
• Common symptoms of failure include water under the unit, drips near the pump area, or a flattened/cracked/hardened old seal

• 1 pump outlet seal

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the toe-kick/lower access panel to reach the pump area; place a towel or pan to catch residual water
• Note seal orientation; clean mating surfaces before installing the new seal
• Seat the seal evenly; reassemble and run a short test to check for leaks

This inlet/outlet seal creates a watertight barrier where two water passages meet in your appliance. Replacing a worn seal helps stop leaks at the connection and maintains proper water flow and performance.

• Forms a tight seal at an inlet/outlet connection to prevent water leaks
• Helps maintain correct water flow and pressure through the system
• Common signs of failure: drips or pooling water near the unit, visible cracks, flattening, or deformation of the seal
• Can resolve recurring leaks after reassembly of water-line connections

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Access the connection point and note the seal's orientation
• Clean mating surfaces; seat the new seal evenly without twisting
• Reassemble, restore water/power, and check carefully for leaks during a test run

Size: 1-1/16 x 5/8 inch. Used for fill hose. For a 4 pack order 285448A

This felt door vent seal fits around the dishwasher's door vent to help contain steam and moisture within the inner door. Replacing a worn seal helps prevent minor leaks and condensation around the vent area during cycles.

• Creates a gasket between the vent assembly and inner door panel to keep steam directed through the intended vent path
• Reduces moisture escape that can cause drips or water spots on the outer door or nearby countertop
• Helps limit condensation or musty odors from trapped moisture inside the door panel
• Indicators of failure include visible wear or separation of the felt and moisture around the vent during operation

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing the dishwasher
• Remove the inner door panel to access the vent assembly
• Note the seal's orientation; clean mating surfaces; seat the new felt evenly around the vent with no gaps
• Reassemble and run a short test cycle to check for leaks at the vent area

Color: clear. It measures about 3-1/2 inches in diameter.

Located between the console and door

This replacement seal keeps liquids and food particles out of the blender motor housing to protect internal components and help prevent leaks. Fits the motor assembly where the shaft passes through the housing. What it does

• Seals the motor shaft opening to help prevent liquid from entering the motor housing.
• Reduces risk of motor damage or shorting caused by leaks into the base.
• Helps stop leaking at the blender base or around the blade assembly when worn.
• Replace if the seal is cracked, flattened, swollen, or shows visible wear.

• Always unplug the appliance before disassembly and removal of the jar or motor housing.
• Remove the blade and jar assembly per the service diagram to access the shaft seal; inspect mating surfaces and replace damaged components.
• Ensure the new seal is seated evenly around the shaft and in its groove; do not force or over-stretch the seal.
• After reassembly, run a short water test (with the unit unplugged from any direct water source) to check for leaks before normal use.

This vinyl door seal lines the perimeter of the appliance door to help block air and moisture leaks, cushion the close, and maintain proper operation. Replace a worn seal to restore a tight, quiet, reliable door closure.
