Whirlpool WP8182650 Washer Drive Pulley

The Whirlpool WP8182650 Washer Drive Pulley is an essential component of your washing machine. It's a component at the rear of the washer drum that resembles a wheel. The drive belt, which is attached to the motor, wraps around this pulley. When the motor turns, it rotates the driving pulley, which then transfers that rotation to the washer drum via the drive belt. The tumbling action that agitates and cleans your garments is produced by this rotation.A good washing cycle requires a driving pulley that is in good working order. A worn-out or damaged pulley might cause the drum to spin slowly, sporadically, or not at all, which impedes the cleaning process. You can make sure your clothes get a thorough wash and your washer's drum spins again by replacing a broken drive sprocket.
