Function & Importance of the Outer Tub Assembly

The outer tub assembly is one of the most critical components in a top-load washer. It:

• Holds and contains water during wash and rinse cycles

• Supports and stabilizes the inner spin basket

• Helps reduce vibration and noise during operation

• Maintains structural integrity of the washer

A properly functioning outer tub ensures safe operation and protects internal components from water damage. OEM construction is essential, as improper fit or weak materials can lead to leaks, imbalance, or premature failure.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Outer Tub Assembly

If your washer is experiencing any of the following issues, replacing the W10371566 outer tub may resolve the problem:

• Water leaking from the bottom or sides of the washer

• Visible cracks or damage in the tub

• Excessive vibration or shaking during spin cycles

• Loud or unusual noises during operation

• Washer not spinning or washing properly

• Water not being retained during cycles

These symptoms are often caused by structural damage or wear in the outer tub, making replacement necessary for safe and reliable operation.
