Whirlpool 6-2040130 Genuine OEM Top Load Washer Tub Bearing Kit

This Top Load Washer Tub Bearing Kit is installed between the two tubs and seals the water within them. This high-quality and easy-to-install kit includes the hub assembly, seal, and spanner nut. If the bearing in your appliance is causing it to no longer function properly or if your washer isn't spinning as expected during operation, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. Note that the mounting stem and tub bearing kits are sold separately but should be replaced at the same time. We strongly recommend hiring a qualified technician to safely install this part, as replacing it will require advanced mechanical training. Specialized tools, complex testing, and appliance calibration may also be necessary. Helpful Tip: We recommend using affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner Tablets* (item W10135699) once a month to help reduce odor-causing residue that can build up in your washing machine's drain without proper care. *affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
