WP40113601 Whirlpool Dryer Drum Roller Axle and Roller Bracket and Shaft Assembly

Dryer Drum Roller Axle and Roller Bracket and Shaft Assembly are essential components in various Whirlpool appliances, including brands like Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Whirlpool also manufactures compatible parts for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea products. The Drum Roller Axle, specifically, is an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part designed to connect to the dryer's rear panel and support the drum rollers.

Over time, the Drum Roller Axle may experience wear, which could lead to bending or wobbling, affecting the drum's smooth rotation. Additionally, the bearing seals might wear out due to continuous movement and exposure to heat, potentially leading to further complications.

Indications of a malfunctioning Drum Roller Axle include:

- Noticeable vibrations or unsteady drum rotations during operation
- Early wear and tear on other drum or suspension parts
- Decreased drying efficiency due to inconsistent drum movement, which affects fabric agitation
- Unusual noises or rattling from the dryer's drum area

This Whirlpool OEM part is compatible with certain models from Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, and some Kenmore appliances.

Replacing this part can resolve issues such as the dryer's inability to tumble.
