This item is available for purchase individually.

Whirlpool manufactures a range of products under various brands including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool produces items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The Tine Row Holder, specifically designed for Whirlpool dishwashers, is an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) replacement part. Positioned inside the dishwasher tub, this holder keeps the lower basket tine rows upright, ensuring they do not move sideways or tilt during the wash cycle, which helps achieve a thorough clean. The holder is gray and measures approximately 4 inches in width and 1 inch in height.

Common reasons for the malfunction of a tine row holder are general wear and tear over time, which can lead to cracks or breaks in the plastic. Incorrect placement of dishes can also result in impact damage.

Indicators of a malfunctioning tine row holder include:

- A loose or unstable lower dish rack
- Tines that tilt or collapse during the wash cycle
- Inadequate spray reaching the dishes from certain angles
- Audible noise caused by movement of racks or components inside the dishwasher

This genuine Whirlpool part is compatible with dishwashers from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore.
