WP61002112 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Door Shelf End Cap (Left or Right, White)
The WP61002112 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Refrigerator Door Shelf End Cap (White) is a precision-fit replacement component designed for Whirlpool refrigerators and compatible cold-storage door shelving systems. Manufactured as a Genuine OEM part, it ensures original equipment fit, durability, and reliable performance. Available across Canada through Appliance Kingdom, this part ships quickly nationwide for both homeowners and appliance repair professionals.
This end cap is used on the refrigerator door shelf retainer bar, and is designed to fit either the left or right side, helping secure the door bin rail in place and preventing stored items from shifting or falling during door movement.
Function & Importance of the Part
The WP61002112 end cap plays a critical structural role in your refrigerator door storage system. It:
-
Locks the door shelf retainer bar securely into the refrigerator door liner
-
Keeps door bins and bottle racks properly supported
-
Ensures smooth, stable door storage function
Because it is a structural support component, a damaged or missing end cap can cause the entire door shelf rail to loosen, making the storage bins unstable or unusable.
OEM quality is important here because precise fitment ensures the shelf rail stays aligned with the inner door liner, preventing unnecessary stress on plastic components.
Common Symptoms of Failure
A failing or missing WP61002112 end cap may cause:
-
Door shelf or bottle bin becoming loose or detached
-
Items falling from refrigerator door shelves
-
Visible cracking or missing plastic support piece

Door bins not sitting flush or shifting when opening/closing the door

Reduced storage stability in refrigerator door compartments
Replacing this part typically restores proper door storage support and stability, resolving these common issues effectively.
