358336 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Top Load Washer Snubber Pad

The 358336 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Top Load Washer Snubber Pad is a critical vibration-dampening component designed for top-load washing machines. Manufactured to original Whirlpool specifications, this OEM part ensures proper fit, stability, and long-term performance. Available through Appliance Kingdom with fast Canada-wide shipping, it’s a trusted solution for restoring smooth and quiet washer operation.

This snubber pad is commonly used to fix excessive shaking, noise, and instability during wash and spin cycles—especially in older or heavily used top-load washers.

Function & Importance of the Snubber Pad

The snubber pad is part of the washer’s suspension system, located beneath the tub assembly. Its primary function is to absorb vibration and reduce friction between moving components during operation.

It works alongside suspension springs or rods to:

  • Stabilize the washer tub during agitation and spin cycles

  • Minimize excessive movement and noise

  • Protect internal components from wear and damage

Using a Genuine OEM snubber pad (358336) ensures proper friction resistance and durability. Incorrect or worn pads can lead to increased vibration, faster component wear, and poor washing performance.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Snubber Pad

If your top-load washer is showing any of the following issues, this part may need replacement:

  • Washer shaking or moving excessively during spin cycles

  • Loud squeaking, scraping, or unusual noises

  • Washer becoming unbalanced frequently

  • Poor washing performance due to unstable drum movement

  • Visible wear or deterioration of the snubber pad

Will replacing this part fix your issue?
If your washer is vibrating excessively or making abnormal noises—especially during spin—a worn snubber pad is a common cause and replacing it often restores stability and smooth operation.
