Improved W10612022 Dryer Rear Drum Felt Seal Replacement - Compatible with Whirlpool Crosley Amana Maytag Kenmore Dryers- Replace AP5737110 PS8691753 AP3094267 PS334327 W10389561 Dryer Felt Seal

Common-sense was necessary, for the installation of the improved W10612022 Dryer Rear Drum Felt Seal. The felt seal fit nicely and the glue was easy to apply on the felt. I used clothes line clips to hold felt snug against the drum, while the glue dried twenty-four hours. I applied glue on one side, allowing it to dry 24hrs, before applying the glue to the other side. So, total dry time was forty-eight hours. I am pleased with the results. The only issue was with purchasing; is the felt comparable to "Original Equipment Manufacturer"-OEM. Since I'm not a professional and it was my very first felt replacement, I am not familiar with its quality or endurance. However, I am satisfied with the installation and believe it to be durable enough to satisfy the best of wives. An easy 'HoneyDew'.Check photos for proper installation. Note: black strip goes on outside of drum.Ciao Ciao!

Perfect fit!

Works, could use some sort of instructions for the orientation of the product, I had to look up a few other pictures but ended up figuring it out on my own.

Decent replacement however came with zero instruction. Not quite as thick or durable as oem but will do the job. Pro tip : the glue works well if you apply to drum and let sit a few minutes to let it get tacky otherwise felt just slips off . Glue is rather thin and doesn’t like to stay where you apply it so consider turning drum on its side while applying glue otherwise it will run down the drum like mine and completely eat the paint right off. Let sit a few minutes than flip on end and install felt . Best of luck

I used this replacement felt seal in my 2008 vintage Maytag MTW5700TQ0 (Whirlpool) Gas Dryer. It fit perfectly. It installed with a (1970s Model Glue) adhesive. Surface prep is very important. Allow to dry / cure for a full 24-hrs. While this repair won't be "factory precise", if carefully / accurately positioned and thoroughly glued, it will last for years. The kit comes with plenty of glue; easily more than I needed. Use only in a well ventilated area. Follow the included instructions carefully. Do not "overthink" this dryer drum felt seal repair. This isn't a space rocket fuel cell seal. This is actually a fairly forgiving replacement appliance repair. I also used coarse sandpaper to lightly, reasonably clean up the metal dryer drum seam feature this felt seal was being attached to.

Dryer felt was a great fit and easy to install. I found a trick to make it much easier. Put the felt on without the glue and put 4 binder clips at 12, 3, 6 & 9 to hold it in place. Then glue it down and use clothespins to hold it down to get a nice seal with the glue and remove the binders as you go along. I used a bunch probably 50 or 60 I believe but it was worth it. When I took the clothespins off after letting it sit for several hours and the seal was rock solid. Most videos I viewed the glue was a dark red color with a thin tip applicator. This was like a cloudy off white color and with no applicator and you just have to take your time to not get glue everywhere. Also nitrile gloves with help too. Great value as well.

The felt is nonexistent and all there is the fiber backing. Didn't have the original to compare to and installed, just to find out it was noisier than original, then found it is so thin as to be useless.There is ZERO information on how to use the glue, including the quantity to use, open time, or drying time.And for God's sake could you not include a nozzle to apply the glue? The $.15 would likely have not broken the bank but sure would have made application easier and cleaner. I would have paid a $1 more for the convenience.

Instructions not included. Adhesive starts to set up after about five minutes.PartSelect has a pretty good installation video for their dryer drum seal.
