Whirlpool Washer Washplate W11510461 OEM Part

The Washplate is an original equipment component specifically crafted for Whirlpool brand washing machines. It is placed within the wash tub and works in tandem with the agitator to gently move laundry up and down during wash cycles. Its role is crucial in maintaining the washer's efficiency.<br /><br />Regular use exposes the washplate to the agitator and clothes, which can gradually cause deterioration. Such wear is often visible as minor fractures or chips in the plastic, potentially leading to the accumulation of dirt and debris. This buildup may trigger unusual vibrations and noises during machine operation.<br /><br />Signs that a washplate may require replacement include:<br /><br />- Increased machine vibration or movement<br />- Uncommon grinding or clunking noises<br />- Water leakage around the tub seal<br />- Visible surface damage, such as cracks<br /><br />This component is not only suitable for Whirlpool washers but also fits Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models. Notably, brands like Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral are part of the Whirlpool group. Furthermore, Whirlpool produces parts for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea appliances.
