Whirlpool W10816479 Refrigerator Fitting Oem Part

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL W10816479 is an OEM fitting designed as a direct replacement component for compatible Whirlpool refrigerators. Fittings in refrigeration systems manage fluid or gas routing through lines and connections, maintaining proper flow within the sealed or water-supply circuit. This part is manufactured to original equipment specifications, meaning it is built to the same tolerances and material standards as the factory-installed component it replaces. Licensed appliance technicians and experienced service professionals install this type of fitting during routine maintenance or repair calls when the original part shows wear, cracking, or leakage.

This fitting is intended for use in residential refrigerator applications where the original W10816479 fitting has failed or been damaged. It is suited for repair scenarios involving Whirlpool-brand refrigerator units that originally shipped with this part. No specific model list was provided in the available product data, so technicians should verify fitment by cross-referencing the part number against the unit's service documentation or parts diagram before installation.
