Replacing worn or incorrect fasteners like this screw helps restore proper structural integrity and prevents premature damage within stacked laundry systems.

Function & Importance

In stacked washer and dryer appliances, specialised fasteners such as this screw play a critical role in:

• Securing internal components exposed to vibration and rotational forces

• Maintaining correct alignment between washer and dryer assemblies

• Preventing loosening during high-speed spin and drying cycles

The nylon construction helps reduce vibration transfer and minimises wear on mating components, while the left-hand (LH) thread ensures proper torque retention in applications where standard right-hand threads may loosen over time. Using the correct OEM fastener is essential for safety, appliance stability, and long-term reliability.

Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement

A worn, damaged, or incorrect screw in a stacked washer-dryer unit can lead to:

• Loose or misaligned internal components

• Increased vibration or rattling during spin or dry cycles

• Panels or assemblies shifting out of position

• Repeated loosening even after tightening

If your Speed Queen stacked laundry unit shows these symptoms and inspection reveals a stripped, missing, or incorrect fastener, replacing this screw can directly resolve the issue and restore proper operation.
