Whirlpool wp2147997 Shelf Stud Oem Replacement

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL wp2147997 is a genuine OEM shelf stud designed to secure shelving components inside Whirlpool refrigerators and appliances. This small but critical hardware piece anchors shelf assemblies to the interior cabinet walls, maintaining proper shelf positioning and load support. When the original stud breaks, cracks, or goes missing, shelving becomes unstable and unusable. The wp2147997 restores proper shelf support using the same materials and dimensions as the factory-installed part. Appliance repair technicians and experienced DIYers install this part as a direct OEM replacement.

This shelf stud is used in residential refrigerator and appliance repair applications where the original mounting hardware has failed or been lost. It is suited for service calls where shelf instability is the presenting symptom. Because it is a genuine OEM component, it fits the original mounting points without modification and requires no additional hardware for installation.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM part sourced directly from Whirlpool

Compatibility

Installation Notes

This part is typically installed by an appliance repair technician or a knowledgeable DIYer. Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any interior service work. Consult the appliance owner's manual for the correct removal and installation procedure specific to your model. Do not force the stud into the mounting point, as this may damage the cabinet liner.
