WE3X70 General Electric Drum Support Bearing

The Drum Support Bearing is a genuine OEM part designed for GE dryers. It facilitates the smooth rotation of the dryer drum, essential for the even and efficient drying of clothes. Positioned at the rear, this component supports the drum, allowing it to rotate freely.

With regular use, the drum support bearing can wear out or sustain damage from ongoing friction and heat. When this happens, several issues may arise, such as:

- A squealing or grinding noise, which suggests the bearing needs replacement.
- Difficulty in manually turning the drum.
- Unusual vibration or shaking of the dryer.
- Longer drying times if the drum cannot spin at the appropriate speed.

This part is compatible with various models from Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore dryers.

Replacing a faulty drum support bearing can resolve issues like excessive noise and problems with tumbling.
