The rear bearing carries the back of the drum shaft every time the dryer runs, and as it wears the drum starts to squeak, grind or rumble. Fitting a new bearing takes the play out of the drum and helps your dryer run quietly again.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"background:#fdf6f2; border:1px solid #f0d4c6; border-left:5px solid #c8552a; padding:12px 14px; margin:16px 0; border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility Notice:\u003c\/strong\u003e Please check your full appliance model number and original part number before ordering.

Because the bearing supports the back of the drum on every cycle, it gradually wears until the shaft can move, which leads to squeaking, grinding and a drum that no longer turns true. Replacing it with this genuine teardrop bearing, reference 482000022961 (also listed as C00208205), brings the drum back into line.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Before ordering, compare the shape of your old bearing: this is the teardrop-shaped type, and some Hotpoint and Indesit dryers use a different riveted bearing or a bearing kit instead. While the bearing is out, check the drum shaft as well; if it is scored or worn it should be replaced at the same time so the new bearing lasts.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"background:#fff4ee; border:1px solid #f0d4c6; border-left:5px solid #c8552a; padding:12px 14px; margin:18px 0 12px 0; border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eSafety Notice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Electrical or gas appliance parts should only be fitted by a suitably competent person.
