Description

This rear wheel supports the dryer drum and helps it turn smoothly for even drying and quiet operation. Replacing a worn wheel restores stable drum rotation and reduces scraping or squealing noises. What it does:

• Supports the back edge of the drum so it rolls smoothly on the shaft or glide.
• Reduces drum wobble and prevents metal-to-metal contact that causes scraping or grinding.
• Helps eliminate squeaks, thumping, or uneven drum rotation during operation.
• Restores proper drum alignment for consistent drying performance.

What's included:

• One rear wheel

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before starting any repair; verify the dryer is unplugged or the circuit breaker is off.
• Remove the dryer cabinet or access panel as required and support the drum while replacing the wheel.
• Inspect the shaft, bearing, and adjacent rollers/glides; replace any other worn components to prevent repeat failure.
