W10207783 Whirlpool Washer Suspension Spring Kit (Set of 3)

The Shock Absorber for the Washer/Dryer Combo is an essential component manufactured by Whirlpool, suitable for various brands including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool produces compatible parts for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea appliances. Specifically, the Suspension Spring, an OEM part, plays a crucial role in maintaining the stability of the washing machine's tub during the spin cycle. It effectively minimizes vibrations and ensures the machine operates smoothly by absorbing and dampening the movement when the machine is running.<br /><br />Over time, the Suspension Spring may experience issues such as stretching, weakening, rust, or corrosion. Heavy loads or excessive vibration can also lead to breakage. When the Suspension Spring fails, several signs might be noticeable. These include increased vibrations, unusual sounds during the spin cycle, a sagging or tilting tub, and the machine moving from its original position during use.<br /><br />This particular OEM part from Whirlpool is also designed to fit seamlessly with other models from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore washing machines.
