• Secures components to the appliance frame or assemblies
• Helps maintain alignment and structural stability
• Replaces missing, rusted, or stripped hardware
• Common symptoms include loose/wobbly handles or panels, rattling/vibration noises, or a visibly missing screw

• Disconnect power before servicing

The Screw is an OEM component compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw secures the rear panel onto the cabinet frame, ensuring a sturdy connection between housing components.  Proper installation is critical for the washer's structural integrity.

Causes of a bad screw include corrosion from repeated water exposure or stresses from years of use. Loosening can occur from vibrations weakening the threads over time. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• Rear panel detaching from frame opening gaps
• Increased noise and vibrations from a compromised seal  
• Stress on other connections from improper mounting points
• Potential leak paths from openings near hoses or tub areas

This OEM Whirlpool replacement screw helps maintain a tight panel closure. It is compatible with additional brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
