Whirlpool offers a wide array of products under respected brand names such as Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, they produce items tailored for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The suspension kit from Whirlpool serves as an OEM replacement component, specifically engineered to stabilize and support the washer’s drum and tub throughout operation. The suspension rods, strategically positioned inside the washer's framework surrounding the drum, play a crucial role in absorbing and reducing vibrations and movements experienced during washing cycles. By maintaining the drum's balance, these rods effectively minimize any excessive movement or vibration that could potentially impact the appliance or its environment.
This kit comprises four suspension rods, along with the necessary bearings and bushings.
The suspension kit effectively resolves the following issues:
- Excessive vibrations and shaking during wash and spin cycles
- Unusual loud noises, such as banging or knocking, emanating from the washer
- Imbalance or misalignment of the washer drum during operation
Designed to ensure compatibility, the Whirlpool suspension kit is suitable for use with appliances from brands such as Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears.
