Whirlpool WP8183101 Dryer Belt

The Whirlpool WP8183101 Dryer Belt is an indispensable upgrade for your clothes dryer. It is a looping band made of rubber or an equivalent substance that snugly wraps around the dryer's drum and motor pulley. The motor generates friction with the belt, causing it to rotate. This rotation is then communicated to the drum, which tumbles your garments uniformly throughout the drying process.A worn out or broken dryer belt can severely reduce your dryer's effectiveness. If the belt entirely breaks, the drum will not spin at all, leaving your clothing wet. Even a slightly worn belt can cause inefficiencies, such as longer drying periods, higher energy usage, and excessive wear and strain on other dryer components.
