Description

This outer tub is the stationary wash container that holds water and supports the inner basket. Replacing a damaged outer tub restores proper water containment and helps maintain normal wash and spin performance. What it does:

• Houses and seals water inside the washer during fill, wash and rinse cycles.
• Supports the inner basket and helps maintain correct basket alignment during spin.
• Commonly replaced for symptoms like visible leaks, water pooling under the machine, or rubbing/metal-on-metal noises from the wash area.
• Helps prevent water from reaching the cabinet and internal components when intact and properly installed.

What's included: One outer tub. Install notes:

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the washer cabinet and inner basket; follow the OEM service manual or diagram for steps.
• Inspect and replace seals, gaskets or fasteners as needed to ensure a watertight fit.
