Description
This hinge bushing is a small sleeve that fits over the hinge pin to create a smooth pivot point. Replacing a worn bushing helps the door open and close quietly, stay aligned, and maintain proper sealing performance.
- Provides a low-friction surface between the hinge pin and bracket for smoother movement
- Helps maintain door alignment and consistent gaps at the hinge side
- Reduces squeaks, grinding, or binding when opening and closing
- Replace if cracked, flattened, missing, or if the door rubs or won't close flush
What's included: One hinge bushing Install notes:
- Disconnect power; for water-bearing appliances, also shut off the water supply
- Support the door to relieve hinge load; use a helper for heavier doors
- Remove hinge fasteners/pin as needed; note the original bushing orientation and position
