GE Washer Tub Seal (WH02X10383)

The GE Washer Tub Seal forms a watertight barrier between the outer tub and the spin basket shaft, preventing water from leaking into the motor and drive components below. It works by wrapping tightly around the rotating shaft so water stays inside the tub during the wash and spin cycles.

GE washer tub seals wear out over time from constant exposure to water, detergent, and the friction of a spinning shaft. Heat, age, and mineral buildup can cause the rubber or composite material to crack, harden, or lose its shape, allowing water to escape past the seal and reach parts that should stay dry.

These symptoms can help you decide if the tub seal is the source of your problem:

- Water pooling under the washer during or after a cycle

- Rust stains or moisture around the lower cabinet or base of the machine

- Grinding or scraping noise coming from the bottom of the tub

- Visible water damage or corrosion on the motor or drive components

- Musty odor caused by water reaching areas that do not dry out

- Excessive wobble or vibration from a shaft no longer supported by a firm seal
