Whirlpool Washer Clip Or Clamp

The Clutch Band and Lining Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It contains the clutch band and clutch lining components essential for proper transmission of power from the washer motor to its drum during the spin cycle. The clutch band and lining allow for a controlled amount of slippage to safely extract water from clothes without damage. 

Symptoms of a bad clutch band and lining include: 

• Excessive noise or vibration during spin
• Slow or ineffective spinning 
• The drum failing to spin or “locking up”
• Premature wear of other transmission parts

Over time and with heavy use, these components can wear down. If slipping or damage is detected, it’s important to replace the kit to avoid potential transmission repairs.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Hose Clamp is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This clamp secures the hose in place, ensuring a tight connection and preventing leaks during operation. It is essential for maintaining the integrity of the washing machine's water system, securing hoses that carry water to and from the washer.

Common causes of a bad hose clamp include rust, physical damage, or loosening from repeated tightening and loosening.

Symptoms of a bad hose clamp include:

• Water leaks around the hose connection points
• The hose slipping off the fitting
• Visible rust or wear on the clamp
• Difficulty in tightening the clamp to secure the hose

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore models.

This retainer ring is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for use on front load washing machines to hold the boot seal in place. The boot seal is the gasket that seals the washing machine when the door is closed to prevent water from leaking. The retainer ring is located flush against the boot seal and has either a spring clamp or screw clamp that secures it. Over time, this ring may become damaged due to the washing machine's normal use and age. If the ring is not tight, the washing machine could leak when in use. If water is coming from the door, it is a good idea to inspect and replace the retainer ring and possibly the boot as well.Unplug the washing machine to prevent electrocution. Remove the front panel, the detergent dispenser, and the kickplate to access the retainer ring. Locate the clamp on the ring and loosen it. Remove the retainer ring and set it to the side. Inspect the boot and then install the new retainer ring. Tighten the clamp and reassemble the washing machine. This retainer ring is sold as an individual unit. It is designed specifically for washing machines manufactured by Whirlpool.

This E ring is a small metal retaining clip that secures shafts, pulleys, and other rotating parts to prevent axial movement. It restores correct part positioning so assemblies run smoothly and stay aligned. What it does:

• Acts as a snap/retaining ring to hold components on a shaft or in a groove
• Prevents pulleys, bearings, or spacers from sliding out of place
• Common symptom: loose or shifting pulley, increased wobble, noise, or component disengagement
• Small, inexpensive part whose failure can allow adjacent parts to migrate and cause additional damage

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Use snap-ring pliers or needle-nose pliers and wear eye protection when installing or removing
• Ensure clip seats fully in the shaft groove and that mating surfaces are clean and undamaged
• Replace any damaged mating hardware rather than reusing a deformed clip

This replacement clamp secures flexible hoses and lines to prevent leaks and keep connections tight. It restores a secure seal so appliances move water or air without escaping at the joint. What it does:

• Secures inlet, drain or water lines to fittings and housings
• Helps stop leaks from loose or worn hose connections
• Keeps hoses from slipping off during operation or vibration
• Commonly replaced when clamps are corroded, broken, or no longer hold tension

• Inspect hose and fitting for damage before installing the new clamp
• Position clamp over the hose barb and tighten evenly until snug; avoid over-tightening
• Use appropriate tools (pliers or clamp driver) and follow appliance safety procedures
• Disconnect power and shut off water supply when working on water lines

This retaining clip secures small panels and components to help keep assemblies aligned and reduce rattles or movement during operation. It's a simple replacement that restores proper fit where the original clip has broken or gone missing. What it does:

• Holds trim, panels or small assemblies in place to prevent loosening and vibration
• Restores proper alignment and fit where a worn or broken clip causes gaps or rattling
• Commonly used where snap-in retention is required for plastic or sheet-metal parts
• Simple, single-piece part with no electrical or mechanical adjustments needed

• One retaining clip

• Turn power off and unplug the appliance before accessing the repair area
• Remove any adjoining panels or fasteners as needed to access the clip location
• Press or snap the clip into the mating slot; use care to avoid bending surrounding parts

This clamp secures flexible hoses or tubing to fittings to help stop leaks and keep connections tight. It's a small but essential fastener for water and drain lines in many appliances. What it does:

• Holds hose or tube to a barb, spud, or fitting to maintain a watertight seal
• Prevents leaks that can cause puddling, dripping, or appliance shutdowns
• Replaces worn, corroded, or broken clamps that no longer tighten properly
• Helps maintain proper hose positioning to avoid kinks or stress on connections

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before servicing appliances.
• Use the appropriate pliers or clamp tool to remove and re-seat the clamp without damaging the hose.
• Inspect hose ends and fittings; replace hoses that are cracked or severely worn.
• After installation, restore water and power, then run a short cycle and check for leaks.

This clamp secures flexible hoses and small-diameter tubing to fittings, helping prevent leaks and maintain proper fluid flow in appliance systems. It's a simple replacement that restores a tight, reliable connection. What it does

• Holds a hose or tube firmly on a barb or nipple to stop leaks and loss of pressure
• Keeps water, drain, or vent hoses seated during normal appliance operation
• Replaces worn, corroded, or loose clamps that cause dripping or poor connections
• Works where a small, durable clamp is required for routing or securing tubing

• One hose clamp

• Inspect hose and fitting for damage; replace hose if cracked or hardened before installing the clamp
• Tighten clamp until snug—do not overtighten; ensure even compression around the hose
• Disconnect power and water as appropriate and take safety precautions before working on the appliance

This clamp secures a flexible appliance hose to a fitting to help prevent leaks and keep connections tight. It's a small but essential part that restores a proper seal on water or drain lines. What it does:

• Holds a hose firmly to a tailpiece, barb or connector to reduce leaks and hose slippage
• Helps stop intermittent dripping or pooling caused by loose hose connections
• Restores a proper seal after hose replacement or maintenance
• Works on common appliance water/drain lines where this clamp style is used

• One hose clamp

• Disconnect power and shut off water to the appliance before starting any work
• Allow the appliance and hoses to cool if recently used; use gloves and eye protection
• Use appropriate pliers or a screwdriver (depending on clamp style) to remove and install the clamp; avoid over-tightening
• Inspect the hose and fitting for damage; replace the hose if cracked or worn

This retainer clip secures a component in place to prevent movement and maintain proper alignment during appliance operation. Replacing a damaged or missing clip helps restore safe, reliable performance.

• Holds the mating part firmly to reduce vibration and noise
• Helps prevent intermittent operation caused by loose fitment
• Common fix when a component feels loose, rattles, or won't stay seated

• Disconnect power and shut off gas/water before servicing
• Note original clip orientation and location before removal
• Use needle-nose pliers to carefully release and install the clip
