Tub Bearing Split Ring WH02X10265 OEM Part

The Tub Bearing Split Ring is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement part crafted specifically for GE washing machines. It precisely fits between the inner and outer tubs, anchoring the tub bearing within the outer tub. With a 2-inch diameter, this component is integral to supporting the tub/hub assembly and ensuring optimal machine performance.<br /><br />Typical signs of a defective Tub Bearing Split Ring include:<br /><br />- Pronounced vibrations or an unsteady tub during spin cycles<br />- Audible clunking, knocking, or grinding noises<br />- Reduced spin speeds or inability to achieve high revolutions per minute (RPMs)<br />- Premature wear on the tub or bearing, necessitating replacement<br /><br />The split ring usually deteriorates due to extended use, which leads to material fatigue and subsequent wear. Over time, this can cause cracks or breaks that compromise its stability and load-bearing capacity.<br /><br />This replacement part is designed not only for GE washers but also is compatible with select models from Hotpoint, RCA, and certain Kenmore front-load washing machines.
