Description

This felt kit seals the gap between the dryer drum and bulkhead to maintain proper airflow and smooth, quiet rotation. Replacing a worn seal can reduce noise, help prevent snags, and restore consistent drying performance.
  • Forms a drum-to-bulkhead seal to keep heated air in the proper airflow path
  • Cushions drum movement to minimize scraping or squealing sounds
  • Helps prevent clothing from catching at the drum edge
  • Common signs of wear: frayed or missing felt, visible gaps, unusual noise, longer dry times
What's included: 1 felt kit for the dryer drum seal. Install notes:
  • Disconnect power; turn off gas supply if applicable
  • Access the drum and bulkhead; support the drum during service
  • Remove the old seal and any residue; install the new felt evenly around the circumference
  • After reassembly, rotate the drum by hand to ensure smooth contact and proper alignment
