Whirlpool w10443243 Door Gasket White

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL w10443243 is a white door gasket designed as an OEM-style replacement for refrigerator and freezer doors. The gasket forms an airtight seal along the door perimeter, preventing warm air infiltration and maintaining consistent interior temperatures. A failed or torn door gasket forces the compressor to run longer cycles, raising energy consumption and risking food safety. This part is installed by appliance service technicians and capable DIYers during routine maintenance or when visible cracking, stiffness, or seal failure is observed on the existing gasket.

This door gasket is suited for residential refrigeration appliances where the original white gasket has worn, torn, or lost its flexibility. It restores the factory door seal, eliminating air leaks around the door frame. Compatible units typically include top-mount, bottom-mount, and side-by-side refrigerator configurations. Always verify the part number against the appliance model label before ordering.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement door gasket for compatible WHIRLPOOL refrigeration appliances. Verify fitment using the full model number located on the appliance data label before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified appliance technician. Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any door gasket replacement. The gasket is usually retained by the inner door liner screws or pressed into a channel groove around the door perimeter. Soaking the new gasket in warm water before installation can improve flexibility and ease of seating.
