5303281019 Frigidaire Dryer Ball Bearing

Dryer Ball Bearing Description:

The dryer ball bearing is a genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part designed for use in Frigidaire dryers. It is located within the drum bearing assembly and plays a crucial role in minimizing friction as the drum rotates during the drying process.

Common issues with the ball bearing typically arise from normal wear and tear, the buildup of lint and debris, or insufficient maintenance and lubrication.

Indicators of a malfunctioning ball bearing include:

- Noticeable squeaking or grinding noises during operation.
- Difficulty or unevenness in the drum's rotation, suggesting increased friction.
- Excessive vibration of the dryer, pointing to issues with the drum's movement.

Please note, this item includes only the drum-bearing ball. For those needing a complete drum bearing and shaft kit, the part number 5303281153 is recommended.

This replacement part is compatible with various models from brands including Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and select Kenmore appliances. Additionally, it is used in some products manufactured for Sears-Kenmore under the Frigidaire brand.
