WP16910 Whirlpool Stand Mixer Hinge Pin

Stand Mixer Hinge Pin Overview

The hinge pin is a crucial component in Whirlpool stand mixers, designed to connect the mixing bowl to the mixer's base. This allows the bowl to swing freely, facilitating the easy addition and removal of ingredients. Whirlpool, a prominent brand in the appliance industry, also owns Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures products compatible with Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.

Common Issues with a Faulty Hinge Pin:

- The mixing bowl may not secure properly to the base or may swing excessively.
- Users might find it challenging to add or remove ingredients.
- The mixing process could be accompanied by unusual noises due to the bowl's movement.

A hinge pin might degrade due to regular wear and tear, damage from excessive force, or corrosion caused by moisture.

This OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part from Whirlpool is also suitable for certain models of KitchenAid and Kenmore stand mixers.
