The Tine Row Holder, an OEM replacement component, fits Bosch dishwashers and is also suitable for use with Thermador, Gaggenau, and select Kenmore models. Located in the upper rack, it functions to keep the retractable tines of the spray arm securely anchored.
This holder plays a vital role in ensuring the dishwasher operates efficiently. It stabilizes the tines, which are responsible for directing water streams precisely across dishes, glasses, and utensils, thus facilitating thorough and gentle cleaning.
If the tine row holder is faulty, it may lead to issues such as tines detaching or loosening inside the dishwasher, challenges in aligning the spray for effective cleaning, and reduced cleaning performance in certain load areas.
Typically, damage to the holder, such as cracks or breaks, can result from the repeated folding and unfolding of the tines.
