Description

Seal assembly replaces the washer's front tub seal to prevent water from leaking around the cylinder, helping stop puddles under the machine and protecting internal components from water exposure. What it does:

• Forms a watertight seal between the front of the tub/cylinder and the outer housing.
• Helps stop leaks that occur during fill, wash, or spin cycles; replacement commonly resolves visible water at the front/base of the washer.
• Use when the seal shows cracks, tears, hardening, or other visible damage.
• Replacement restores proper sealing to help protect bearings and electronics from water intrusion.

What's included: One seal assembly. Install notes:

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing.
• Replacement typically requires front access and partial disassembly of the tub/cabinet; follow the manufacturer service manual and use appropriate tools.
• Clean and inspect the mating surfaces and the shaft for wear or contamination before installing the new seal.
• If you find bearing noise, oil residue, or extensive corrosion, consider replacing affected components.
