Whirlpool WP4451008 Microwave Spring
Product Description
The Whirlpool WP4451008 is a vital component for your microwave, particularly as a door torsion spring. This spring is a helical coil established of solid metal that helps maintain the microwave door in proper tension. Its vital duty is twofold, to keep the door tightly shut during operation for safety reasons, and to guarantee that the door opens and shuts quickly and under control. Without sufficient force from the spring, the door could fail to latch effectively, potentially spilling microwaves or allowing light to escape, or it could sway open or shut too forcefully. The WP4451008 spring usually sits on either side of the microwave door frame and operates by coiling and uncoiling as the door swings and closes.
