What kind of bearings are in an LG washing machine?

What bearings are in an LG washing machine?If you're planning to replace the seal and bearings in your washing machine yourself, carefully select the components. It's important to purchase parts specifically for your LG washing machine. The best way is to remove the components from the housing and take them to the store. This way, the salesperson will be able to select identical parts. If this approach isn't possible, you can figure out which bearings are in your washing machine yourself and provide the salesperson with their part number. However, this is extremely risky, as different models have had different components installed over the years.

Characteristics of seals on LG washing machines

If you are faced with the need to replace the seal and bearings for the first time, you should understand what these elements are. The oil seal is a rubber seal located on the drum shaft, it is also called a drum gasket. The drum seal's function remains the same: to prevent water from entering the bearings. The seal's configuration and size vary among LG machines. Washing machines are equipped with two types of seals:

  • single-edged (prevents liquid leakage)
  • single-edge with a dust cover (in addition to preventing leaks, it protects the joint from dust ingress).

The seal is an essential component in the formation of the bearing assembly. When pressed into the hub, it creates a contact pair with the rotating shaft of the drum.

Each seal is equipped with a metal insert on the inside, which is very important not to damage during installation.Bearing kit for LG washing machine

Top-loading washing machines often use V-shaped seals. They are used in conjunction with a deflector disc, securely attached to the drum. When installed, the seal fits snugly onto the disc thanks to its unique V-shaped edges.

It's important to choose the right bearings for your LG washing machine and the right seal. By carefully selecting components, you'll avoid wasting time and money on trips to the store to replace unsuitable parts.
