XPARTCO 6602-001717 Dryer Drum Belt
The XPARTCO 6602-001717 is an aftermarket replacement drum belt for Samsung 24-inch compact dryers. The belt wraps all the way around the outside of the drum, passes under the idler pulley, and loops around the motor pulley — as the motor turns, the belt drags the drum around with it. There is no other mechanical connection between the motor and the drum, which is why a broken belt produces the classic symptom set: the dryer powers on, the console lights up, the motor hums and the blower runs, but the drum sits completely still. Reach in and spin the drum by hand and it will turn freely with no resistance at all.
Samsung specifies this belt as "BELT-TIMING GEAR; 5PH2010, RUBBER, T2.7" — a 5-rib PH-profile belt, 2010 mm long (approximately 79-1/8 inches), 2.7 mm thick, in reinforced rubber. This is a compact-platform belt used on 24" Samsung dryers, and it is physically shorter than the 6602-001655 (5PH2337) belt used on Samsung's full-size 27" dryers. Belts fail from age and heat: the rubber hardens, the ribs glaze over and start slipping, and eventually the belt cracks through or snaps outright. Frayed edges, a squealing or thumping noise that tracks drum rotation, or black rubber dust in the cabinet are all signs the belt is on its way out. Installs in 45–90 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 6602-001717 Dryer Drum Belt fixes Samsung 24" compact dryers where the motor runs but the drum won't turn, the drum spins freely by hand, or the dryer squeals, thumps, or rumbles during operation. 5 ribs, PH profile, 2010 mm (~79-1/8") long, 2.7 mm thick, reinforced rubber. Also marked 5PH2010. Fits DV22K6800EW and DVE22N6850 compact platforms. Not the same belt as the full-size 6602-001655 / 5PH2337 — that one is over a foot longer.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer runs and hums but the drum does not turn — the classic broken belt symptom
Drum spins freely by hand with no resistance when the door is open
Loud squealing or screeching that starts as soon as the cycle begins
Rhythmic thumping or slapping noise timed to drum rotation — cracked or split belt
Grinding or rumbling from inside the cabinet as a frayed belt drags
Drum turns slowly, intermittently, or stalls under a heavy wet load — glazed belt slipping
Clothes not drying because the drum isn't tumbling to expose them to airflow
Black rubber dust or belt fragments found in the bottom of the cabinet
Visible cracking, fraying, glazing, or stretching on the old belt
Cross Reference Information
Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item.
Replaces Part Numbers
This dryer drum belt directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:
6602-001717, 6602001717, 5PH2010, SAM6602-001717, AP5623743, EAP4133826, ASM30222, PD00060820, PS4133826.
Samsung has not superseded this belt with a newer number, so the cross-reference list is intentionally short. 5PH2010 is the belt's size designation rather than a separate part number, and it is often stamped on the belt itself — if your old belt is marked 5PH2010, this is the correct replacement. If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility.
Heads up on bad cross-reference data: A number of online listings for 6602-001717 have incorrect cross-references copied onto them from a completely unrelated Frigidaire belt — numbers such as 134163400, AP3865318, 148270, PS1148434, and 5303283471, along with a long list of Frigidaire GLER, FDE, FER, and GLGQ model numbers. Those numbers do not apply to this Samsung belt and those Frigidaire dryers do not use it. If you arrived here from a listing showing those numbers, verify against your Samsung model number before ordering.
Compatibility
This drum belt is compatible with select Samsung 24-inch compact dryers, including:
Samsung DV22K6800EW/A1 and DV22K6800EW/AC compact electric dryers
Samsung DV22K6800EW series (all sub-variants)
Samsung DVE22N6850X and DVE22N6850 series compact electric dryers
Samsung DV22N6800 series compact dryers
Select Samsung-built compact dryers sold under other retail labels
These are Samsung's 24" ventless and compact-footprint dryers, commonly installed in apartments, condos, closets, and stacked laundry towers where a full-size 27" dryer will not fit.
Note — compact platform only: The 6602-001717 is a 2010 mm belt for 24" compact Samsung dryers. It is NOT interchangeable with the 6602-001655 (5PH2337) belt used on Samsung's full-size 27" dryers such as the DV42H, DV45H, DV40J, DV48H, DV48J, and DV50K series — that belt is 2337 mm, roughly 13 inches longer. A full-size belt will hang loose on a compact drum and slip immediately; a compact belt will not stretch far enough to reach around a full-size drum. Measure your old belt or check your model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.
Key Features
Aftermarket replacement drum belt for Samsung 24" compact dryers — transfers motor rotation to the drum

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Note Belt Orientation And Idler Routing Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves — the sheet metal edges inside the cabinet are sharp. Before you start, take a photograph of how the old belt routes around the drum, under the idler pulley, and around the motor pulley. If the belt is already broken and you cannot see the original routing, note that the ribbed side of the belt faces toward the drum on this platform, with the smooth back side riding against the idler pulley. Access on Samsung compact dryers is typically through the front: remove the top panel, then the control panel and front panel, which lets you lift the drum out or tilt it forward far enough to work. Vacuum out accumulated lint while the cabinet is open — lint buildup around the motor and idler is what cooks belts prematurely. With the drum accessible, slip the new belt around the drum roughly one-third of the way back from the front lip, ribbed side against the drum surface, and seat it in the wear track left by the old belt. Reach underneath, route the belt under the idler pulley, then loop it around the small motor pulley. A useful trick: tape the belt loosely in position on the drum with a strip of masking tape before you reach underneath, so it doesn't slide off while you're working the idler. Once seated, rotate the drum several full turns by hand and confirm the belt tracks straight and stays centered in its groove without walking toward the edge. While you are in there, spin the idler pulley and the drum rollers by hand — if either is noisy, gritty, or wobbly, replace them now, because a seized idler or worn roller will destroy the new belt in short order. Reassemble, restore power, and run a short empty cycle listening for squeal or thump before putting a load in. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver or socket set, putty knife, masking tape, flashlight, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know for sure the belt is broken and not the motor?
Open the door with the dryer unplugged and try to spin the drum by hand. With an intact belt you will feel firm resistance — you're turning the motor and idler through the belt. If the drum spins freely and easily, coasting like a bicycle wheel, the belt is broken or has come off its pulleys. The other tell is sound: with a broken belt the motor hums and the blower whooshes normally, so you hear a dryer that sounds like it's running perfectly while the drum sits still. A failed motor, by contrast, usually buzzes and does nothing, or trips the breaker.
Which way do the ribs face on this belt?
On this Samsung compact platform the ribbed side faces toward the drum, so the ribs grip the drum surface and the smooth back of the belt rides against the idler pulley. This is worth stating plainly because belt orientation is not universal across brands — some Whirlpool-platform dryers run the grooves against the motor pulley instead. Photograph your old belt before removing it whenever possible; the wear track polished into the drum will also show you exactly where the belt is meant to sit.
Will the full-size Samsung belt work if I can't find this one?
No. The full-size Samsung belt is 6602-001655, marked 5PH2337 — it is 2337 mm long against this belt's 2010 mm, a difference of about 13 inches. On a compact drum that extra length leaves the belt slack, so the idler cannot take up the tension and the belt slips or walks straight off the pulley. Going the other direction, a compact belt simply will not reach around a 27" drum. The rib count and profile are the same, which is exactly why these two get mixed up — always confirm the length.
My dryer squeals but the drum still turns. Is it the belt or something else?
It could be either, and it's worth diagnosing before you order. A glazed or hardening belt squeals as it slips on the motor pulley, usually loudest at startup and under a heavy wet load. But a dry or failing idler pulley bearing produces a very similar squeal, and worn drum rollers add a low rumble. With the dryer open, spin the idler and each roller by hand: they should turn smoothly and silently. If they're gritty, noisy, or have side-to-side play, replace them along with the belt — the parts share the same teardown, so doing them together saves you from opening the cabinet twice.
Why did my belt break in the first place?
Most often heat and age — rubber hardens over years of thermal cycling until it cracks. But two things dramatically accelerate it. Restricted airflow from a lint-clogged vent makes the cabinet run far hotter than designed, cooking the belt. And a seized idler pulley or a flat-spotted drum roller forces the belt to drag against a stationary surface, which shreds it quickly. If your belt failed early, clean the vent ducting end to end and inspect the idler and rollers before assuming the new belt will simply last.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the dimensions (2010 mm length, 2.7 mm thickness), 5-rib PH profile, reinforced rubber construction, and drum-drive function of the original 6602-001717 belt used in compatible Samsung 24" compact dryers.

4 Pack - XPARTCO 8182703 Washer Shock Absorber Replaces WP8182703
The XPARTCO 8182703 is an aftermarket replacement front-load washer shock absorber compatible with select Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, and Roper front-load washers in the GHW, WFW, MHWE, MFW, and KHWS series. The shock absorber is a hydraulic dampener that connects the outer washer tub to the base frame. During the spin cycle, the shock absorbers absorb and dampen the vibrations and movement generated by the spinning drum — keeping the washer stable, quiet, and protecting internal components from damage caused by excessive movement.
Most compatible Whirlpool-family front-load washers use four shock absorbers — two at the front and two at the rear. When one or more shock absorbers wear out, the outer tub vibrates excessively, causing loud banging or thumping during the spin cycle. It is strongly recommended to replace all four shock absorbers at the same time. This listing is for a single shock absorber. It directly replaces WP8182703, 8181646, 1173231, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 8182703 Washer Shock Absorber fixes front-load washers that shake violently, bang loudly, or walk across the floor during the spin cycle. The shock absorber dampens tub vibration. Most models use 4 shock absorbers — replace all 4 at the same time. Sold individually. Compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, and Roper front-load washers. Replaces WP8182703, 8181646, AP6011831, and more.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Violent shaking or vibrating during the spin cycle
Loud banging, thumping, or clunking noise during spin
Washer "walking" across the floor during the spin cycle
Outer tub hitting the sides of the cabinet during high-speed spin
Spin cycle errors caused by excessive tub movement triggering the imbalance sensor
Visible oil leak, broken mount, or collapsed shock absorber body
Washer repeatedly pausing spin cycle and redistributing the load without resolving the vibration
Replaces Part Numbers
This shock absorber directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:
WP8182703, 8182703, 1173231, 8181646, EAP11745030, AWP48892, PD00003153, AP6011831, PS11745030.
If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply before beginning. To access the front shock absorbers, remove the lower front access panel. To access the rear shock absorbers, pull the washer away from the wall, disconnect the water hoses, and remove the rear panel. The shock absorbers connect the outer tub to the base frame with mounting pins at the top and bottom — turn the shock absorber 90 degrees at both pins to release and remove it. Install the new 8182703 shock absorber by inserting the pins into the top and bottom mounting brackets and rotating 90 degrees to lock in place. Replace all 4 shock absorbers during the same repair. Reconnect all panels and water hoses, plug in the washer, restore water supply, and run a spin cycle to verify normal operation. Work gloves are recommended as there are sharp edges inside the cabinet. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, channel-lock pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the washer shock absorber do?
The shock absorbers are hydraulic dampeners that connect the outer washer tub to the base frame of the machine. During the spin cycle — when the drum spins at high speeds — the shock absorbers absorb and dampen the vibrations and movement of the heavy outer tub, keeping it centered and preventing it from striking the sides of the washer cabinet. Without functioning shock absorbers, the washer vibrates violently, makes loud banging noises, and can "walk" across the floor during spin, potentially damaging internal components over time.
How many shock absorbers does my front-load washer have?
Most Whirlpool-family front-load washers compatible with the 8182703 shock absorber use four shock absorbers — two mounted at the front of the tub and two at the rear. This listing is for a single shock absorber. When replacing shock absorbers, it is strongly recommended to replace all four at once, as they all experience the same amount of use and the remaining absorbers are likely to fail soon after the first one.
What is the difference between 8182703 and WP8182703?
These are the same shock absorber. WP8182703 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original 8182703. The 8181646 is also a cross-reference to this same part. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all three numbers.
My washer still vibrates after replacing the shock absorbers — what else could it be?
If vibration persists after replacing all four shock absorbers, other possible causes include an unbalanced or overloaded drum, worn drum bearings, a failing suspension spring, or the washer not being level on the floor. Check that the washer's leveling feet are adjusted so all four corners are in firm contact with the floor. Also confirm the load is not oversized — overloading is the most common cause of spin vibration and can prematurely wear shock absorbers.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured from high-quality reinforced materials to match the dimensions and performance of the original WP8182703 shock absorber.

XPARTCO 4561EL3002A Dryer Idler Pulley Assembly
The XPARTCO 4561EL3002A is an aftermarket replacement dryer idler pulley assembly compatible with select LG and Kenmore electric and gas dryers. The idler pulley assembly is a spring-tensioned arm, pulley wheel, and spring kit that presses against the drive belt to keep it under constant tension as it wraps around the drum and motor pulley. Without correct belt tension, the belt slips, the drum stops spinning, and the dryer tumbles clothes poorly or not at all. A worn idler pulley bearing is also one of the most common causes of squealing, squeaking, and thumping noises in LG dryers.
This complete assembly includes the idler arm, pulley wheel, and idler spring. Overall dimensions are 5-3/4"L x 2-1/4"W x 3-7/8"H with a 2-1/4" diameter pulley wheel. Constructed from plastic and metal in white, black, and gray. It directly replaces 4561EL3002B, DE3002A, 4980EL3004, 1267530, AP4438243, AH3523033, EA3523033, EAP3523033, PD00001729, and PS3523033. Note: the pulley wheel only (without arm and spring) is sold separately as APN4560EL3001A — this listing is for the complete idler assembly. Often replaced together with the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum rollers (4581EL2002A) for a complete drum drive repair. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 4561EL3002A Dryer Idler Pulley Assembly fixes LG and Kenmore dryers that are squealing, thumping, or where the drum has stopped spinning because belt tension is lost. Complete assembly — idler arm, pulley wheel, and spring included. 5-3/4"L x 2-1/4"W x 3-7/8"H overall; 2-1/4" pulley diameter. Replaces 4561EL3002B, DE3002A, 4980EL3004, 1267530, AP4438243, AH3523033, EAP3523033, PS3523033. Often replaced with drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum rollers (4581EL2002A).
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Drum not spinning — belt has lost tension and slipped off
Loud squealing or squeaking noise during the drying cycle — worn idler pulley bearing
Thumping or clunking noise as the pulley wheel wobbles on a worn axle

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. Wear work gloves — there are sharp sheet metal edges inside the LG dryer cabinet. Access the idler pulley by removing the back panel of the dryer (on most LG models) or the front panel and top panel. Take a photo of the belt routing around the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley before removing anything — this is essential for correct reassembly. Release belt tension by pressing the idler arm toward the motor and sliding the belt free. Remove the idler spring from its anchor point, then unclip or unscrew the idler arm from its mounting bracket. Install the new 4561EL3002A idler assembly in the same position — hook the spring onto its anchor point first, then mount the arm. Re-route the belt around the drum (ribbed side in), under the idler pulley, and around the motor pulley, then allow the idler arm to tension the belt. Reassemble panels, restore power, and run a test cycle. Tip: while the dryer is open, inspect and replace the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum rollers (4581EL2002A) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver (T20 on some models), needle-nose pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the dryer idler pulley do?
The idler pulley is a spring-loaded arm and wheel assembly that presses against the drive belt between the drum and the motor pulley, keeping the belt under constant tension. This tension is what allows the belt to grip both the drum surface and the motor pulley so the motor's rotation is transmitted to spin the drum. Without proper tension — or with a pulley bearing that has seized or worn out — the belt slips, the drum stops spinning, and the dryer produces heat without tumbling clothes. A worn bearing also creates the high-pitched squealing noise that is the most recognizable symptom of idler pulley failure on LG dryers.
What is the difference between 4561EL3002A and 4561EL3002B?
These are the same LG dryer idler pulley assembly across two production revisions. The 4561EL3002B was an earlier version and the 4561EL3002A is the current part number. Both are the same functional assembly — if your dryer's parts diagram shows 4561EL3002B, the 4561EL3002A is the correct current replacement and is covered by this listing.
Should I also replace the drum belt and rollers at the same time?
Yes — since the dryer must be disassembled to replace the idler pulley, this is the ideal time to also inspect and replace the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum support rollers (4581EL2002A). All three parts form the drum drive system and wear at similar rates. A worn roller or belt is often what caused the idler pulley to wear prematurely. Replacing all three in one repair eliminates the most common drum drive failure points and prevents a repeat teardown in the near future.
Can I just replace the pulley wheel without the arm and spring?
Yes — the pulley wheel alone (without the arm and spring) is sold separately as part number APN4560EL3001A. If only the wheel bearing has failed and the arm and spring are in good condition, you can order just the wheel. However, if the arm is cracked, the spring has lost tension, or both the wheel and arm have significant wear, ordering the complete 4561EL3002A assembly is more cost-effective and ensures the entire idler system is renewed in a single repair.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured from plastic and metal to match the dimensions and performance of the original 4561EL3002A idler pulley assembly.

XPARTCO W10849499 Dryer Drum Belt
The XPARTCO W10849499 is an aftermarket replacement drum belt for Whirlpool's large-capacity dryer platform. The belt wraps all the way around the outside of the drum, passes around the idler tension pulley, and loops around the drive motor pulley — that belt is the only mechanical connection between the motor and the drum, so when it breaks, the console still lights up, the motor still hums, and the blower still moves air, but the drum sits completely still. Open the door and spin the drum by hand and it will turn freely with no resistance.
This belt measures approximately 97.75 inches long. Belts fail from age and heat: the rubber hardens over years of thermal cycling, the ribs glaze over and begin slipping under a heavy wet load, and eventually the belt cracks through or snaps outright. A worn or seized idler pulley is also a common root cause of premature belt failure, since a pulley that won't turn freely forces the belt to drag continuously against a stationary surface until it shreds. Squealing or chirping at startup, a rhythmic thump timed to drum rotation, fraying at the edges, or black rubber dust in the cabinet are all signs a belt is near the end of its life. As an aftermarket replacement, the W10849499 is built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It directly replaces AP5989682, 4383705, PS11731121, and W10610882.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10849499 Dryer Drum Belt fixes Whirlpool large-capacity dryers where the motor runs but the drum won't turn, the drum spins freely by hand, or the dryer squeals, chirps, or thumps during operation. Approximately 97.75" long. Replaces AP5989682, 4383705, PS11731121, W10610882. If your belt broke due to a worn idler pulley rather than simple age, replace the pulley (PS334244) at the same time or the new belt will wear out quickly too.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer runs and hums but the drum does not turn — the classic broken belt symptom
Drum spins freely by hand with no resistance when the door is open
Loud squealing, chirping, or scraping noise from inside the dryer
Rhythmic thumping or slapping noise timed to drum rotation — cracked or split belt
Drum turns slowly, intermittently, or stalls under a heavy wet load — glazed belt slipping
Clothes not drying completely, or drying taking longer than it used to
Broken belt pieces or fragments found inside the drum
Visible cracking, fraying, glazing, or stretching on the old belt

Note: Whirlpool uses several different drum belt lengths across its dryer lineup, and this one is approximately 97.75" long — different from the shorter belts used on other Whirlpool-built platforms. Belts of a similar rib profile but a different length are not interchangeable; a belt that's too long or short for your drum will slip, walk off the pulley, or fail to seat properly. Verify your model number, or measure your old belt end to end, before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — A Second Person Helps Support The Drum Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. On a gas model, also close the gas shutoff valve before moving the cabinet. Wear work gloves — sheet metal edges inside the cabinet are sharp. On many large-capacity models, both the front and rear panels need to come off to fully access the belt and drum, so budget extra time compared to a simpler platform. Photograph how the old belt routes around the drum, the idler pulley, and the motor pulley before removing anything. Loosen and remove the motor mount or bracket as needed to slip the old belt free, and check the idler pulley by spinning it with your fingers — if it's stiff, gritty, or doesn't spin freely, replace it at the same time, since a worn pulley is a common cause of premature belt failure and will shorten the life of the new belt. With the front panel off, the drum may need to be supported by hand as it comes free — having a second person hold the drum steady makes this significantly easier and reduces the risk of scratching the drum or dropping it. Vacuum out accumulated lint while the cabinet is open. Place the new belt around the drum, seat it in the polished wear track left by the old belt, then route it around the idler pulley and around the motor pulley. Reinstall the motor mount, rotate the drum by hand to confirm the belt tracks straight and stays centered, then reassemble the front and rear panels. Restore power and run a short empty cycle listening for squeal or thump before loading it. Tools needed: nut driver or bit driver, open-end wrench, Phillips screwdriver, work gloves, and ideally a second person to support the drum.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I confirm the belt is broken and not the motor?
With the dryer unplugged, open the door and try to spin the drum by hand. An intact belt gives firm resistance, because you're turning the motor and idler through the belt. If the drum coasts freely like a bicycle wheel, the belt is broken or has jumped off its pulleys. Sound is the other tell: with a broken belt the motor hums and the blower whooshes normally, so the dryer sounds like it's running perfectly while the drum sits still.
My belt broke and I noticed the idler pulley felt stiff. Do I need to replace that too?
Yes, strongly consider it. A worn or seized idler pulley is a well-documented cause of belt failure — if the pulley can't spin freely, it drags against the belt continuously instead of rolling with it, which wears through even a brand-new belt quickly. If your old belt broke and the pulley feels stiff, gritty, or doesn't spin smoothly when you turn it by hand, replace the idler pulley (part PS334244) along with the belt to avoid repeating this repair soon.
Is this the same length as your other Whirlpool dryer belt listings?
Not necessarily — Whirlpool uses different belt lengths across different dryer platforms even when the rib profile looks similar. This belt is approximately 97.75" long, which is specific to the large-capacity platform it's designed for. Always check your model number or measure your old belt's total length before ordering, since a belt of the wrong length will not seat and tension correctly.
Why does replacing this belt need two people?
On this large-capacity platform, accessing the belt often means removing the front panel and freeing the drum, which is heavy and can be awkward to support single-handedly while also working with your other hand. A second person holding the drum steady while you route the new belt reduces the risk of the drum shifting, scratching the finish, or being dropped. It's not strictly required, but it makes the job considerably easier.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the approximately 97.75" length and rib profile of the original W10849499 / W10610882 belt used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and related large-capacity dryers.
