Description

This drum support roller cushions and guides the dryer drum so it turns smoothly and quietly. Replacing a worn roller restores stable drum rotation and reduces noise, vibration, and uneven tumbling. What it does:

• Supports the dryer drum to keep it aligned during rotation
• Reduces scraping, squeaking, or grinding noises caused by worn rollers
• Prevents excessive drum wobble that can lead to belt wear
• Helps maintain even tumbling for consistent drying

What's included:

• One drum support roller

Install notes:

• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas dryers) before starting any repair
• Access usually requires removing the dryer back panel or cabinet—use basic hand tools
• Inspect drum glides, idler pulley, and belt while the dryer is open; replace other worn parts as needed
