2159060 Whirlpool Magnetic Door Gasket for Refrigerator/Freezer

Magnetic Door Gasket for Refrigerator/Freezer, Mist Beige Color.
This component ensures an airtight seal around the cabinet when the refrigerator door is shut. It is compatible with various brands including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, it serves as an OEM replacement part for certain Sears-Kenmore and Ikea models, specifically designed for Whirlpool top-freezer refrigerators. The gasket, made of flexible rubber, is positioned along the edge of the upper freezer door to provide insulation when the door is closed.

Over time, the gasket may fail due to frequent exposure to cold temperatures and the regular wear from opening and closing the door. It can also be damaged by harsh cleaning agents or physical impacts.

Indications of a malfunctioning freezer door gasket include:

- Visible moisture or frost along the inner edges of the door
- Unstable temperatures within the freezer
- Increased occurrence of freezer burn on food items
- Noticeable cold air leakage around the door
- Elevated energy costs due to the compressor working harder

This gasket is also suitable for use with some models from KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Hotpoint, and Kenmore.
