Whirlpool WP691362 Dryer Idler Pulley Assembly
Product Description
The Whirlpool WP691362 Dryer Idler Pulley Assembly is an essential fixture within your clothes dryer. It's a wheel-shaped component that's necessary to the belt-drive system. During the tumble process, the idler pulley, driving pulley, and belt all work together to smoothly rotate the drum of the dryer. The motor turns the driving pulley, which rotates the belt, which spins the idler pulley.The idler pulley ensures that the belt is properly tensioned and tracks accurately around the pulleys. A worn-out, damaged, or undersized idler pulley can cause the belt to slip, resulting in poor drying, increased noise, and possible stress on other dryer components.
