Description

This 22-inch strap snubber cushions and guides the dryer belt at the front of the drum to help reduce noise and prevent premature belt wear. It restores proper belt routing for smoother, quieter tumbling in compatible Whirlpool dryers. What it does:

• Cushions the belt where it contacts the front drum area to reduce rubbing and chafing.
• Helps maintain correct belt routing and tension to prevent slipping and uneven drum rotation.
• Can reduce squeaks, squeals, and jerky drum movement caused by a worn or broken snubber.
• Protects the belt from premature wear that may lead to fraying or failure.

What's included: One strap snubber (22-inch), as pictured. Install notes:

• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the dryer front panel or drum—follow the OEM service manual for safe disassembly.
• Inspect the drive belt, idler pulley, and drum rollers when replacing the snubber; replace any worn parts.
• Wear gloves and eye protection.
