WPW10580220 Whirlpool Dishwasher Wheel

Dishwasher Wheel.

Whirlpool's product range includes brands such as Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures components for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The dishwasher wheel in question is an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part designed specifically for use in Whirlpool dishwashers. It plays a crucial role in the upper dishrack assembly by supporting and facilitating smooth movement of the rack.

The deterioration of a dishwasher wheel typically results from normal wear and tear, which might lead to cracks or other deformations after extensive use. A malfunctioning wheel can compromise the functionality of the upper dishrack, potentially causing it to catch, stick, or slide with difficulty during operation.

Signs of a faulty wheel manifest as issues with the rack, including challenges in rotating or gliding smoothly when loading or unloading dishes.

This particular dishwasher wheel is a genuine Whirlpool OEM part and is also compatible with certain models from Maytag, Jenn-Air, and some Kenmore dishwashers.
