Whirlpool WP34001292 Washer Damper-Shoulder
Product Description
The Whirlpool WP34001292 Washer Damper-Shoulder is a critical component in your washing machine that reduces noise and vibration during the wash cycle. This functions as a shock absorber, attached to both the washer tub and the cabinet frame. During the spin cycle, the washer tub spins rapidly, and the damper-shoulder absorbs the vibrations, keeping the tub from smashing against the frame. This not only decreases noise, but it also protects the machine from damage caused by severe shaking. Without a functioning damper-shoulder, your washing machine is prone to make loud clunking or banging noises during the spin cycle. In severe circumstances, the high vibrations may harm the washer's internal components and cause faults.
