Whirlpool W10493547 Rear Crisper Support

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL W10493547 is a rear crisper support designed as a direct OEM replacement component for Whirlpool refrigerators. This structural bracket mounts at the back of the crisper drawer compartment, holding the crisper drawer slides or shelf in proper alignment so drawers glide and seat correctly. Appliance technicians and experienced DIYers install this part when the original support has cracked, broken, or become damaged, causing drawers to sag, stick, or fail to close properly. It is a precise-fit replacement that restores the crisper compartment to factory function.

This rear crisper support is intended for residential refrigerator service. It fits within the fresh food compartment, specifically at the rear mounting point of the crisper drawer section. This part is appropriate for service calls where the crisper drawer assembly has lost structural integrity at the back panel due to brittleness, impact damage, or wear over time. Confirm the part number against the appliance model tag before ordering.
