Description

Push-in nut that secures panels, trim, or small components to studs or shafts. Restores a firm, vibration-resistant fastener to help stop loose panels and rattling caused by a worn or missing nut. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim or small assemblies to mounting studs or shafts.
• Helps keep parts aligned and reduces vibration or rattling during operation.
• Common symptom: loose or shifting panels, audible rattling, or components that won't stay in place.
• Designed for a push-fit installation to replace worn or missing fasteners.

What's included: One push-in nut. Install notes:

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Push the nut fully onto a clean, undamaged stud until seated; replace damaged studs or mounting hardware.
• If needed, use pliers or a socket to press the nut on evenly—avoid deforming surrounding plastic or sheet metal.
