W10195416 Dishwasher Lower Dish Rack Wheel - For KitchenAid Whirlpool Kenmore Dishwashers - 2 Pack

W10195416 / WPW10195416 Dishwasher Lower Rack Wheel

Key Features

• Reinforced High-Heat Polymer: Manufactured from a premium, heat-stabilized plastic designed to withstand the intense thermal cycling of "Sani-Rinse" and "Heated Dry" cycles without warping, cracking, or becoming brittle.
• Precision-Molded Roller Design: Features an optimized wheel geometry that ensures a smooth, low-friction glide across the dishwasher door and tub tracks, even when the rack is fully loaded with heavy plates and cookware.
• Integrated Snap-Lock Axle: Designed with a high-strength axle interface that clips directly onto the lower rack wire frame, providing a secure, vibration-resistant connection that prevents wheels from popping off during use.
• Load-Bearing Durability: Specifically engineered to support the weight of full loads, ensuring the lower rack remains perfectly level and aligned with the spray arms for consistent cleaning results.
• Complete 2-Piece Maintenance Set: This pack provides a targeted replacement set for one side of the lower rack, restoring original factory-smooth movement and preventing uneven wear on your dishwasher's tub tracks.

Compatibility & Fitment

This lower rack wheel is the standard replacement for the "Tall Tub" lower dish racks of many Whirlpool-manufactured dishwashers. Key compatible brands include:

• KitchenAid & Jenn-Air: Fits hundreds of KDTM, KDTE, KUDI, and JDB series models (e.g., KDTM354ESS, KUDI01FKSS).
• Whirlpool & Maytag: Compatible with various WDT, WDF, and MDB series units (e.g., WDT720PADM, MDB4949SHZ).
• Kenmore (665 Series): Fits many 665-prefix "Elite" and standard dishwashers (e.g., 665.13263K311, 665.13293K116).
• Amana, Ikea, & Roper: Direct fit for ADB, IUD, and standard DU series models utilizing the W10195416 style.
• Note: These are specifically for the Lower Rack. If you are looking for wheels for the upper rack, you may need the W10350376 or W10712395 adjuster kit.

When to Replace

• Lower Rack Jamming: The rack is difficult to pull out or push in, often feeling like it is "jumping" off the track or getting stuck on the door gap.
• Broken or Missing Wheels: Visible damage to the plastic axle or wheels, or wheels that have fallen off and were found at the bottom of the tub.
• Rack Not Level: The lower rack sits at an angle, which can cause the spray arms to hit the dishes or prevent the door from closing properly.
• Loud Grinding/Rolling Noise: A loud mechanical noise when moving the rack, indicating the wheel bearings or the plastic mounts have worn thin.
• Wheels Melting: Plastic wheels that have become deformed or flattened due to falling through the rack and contacting the heating element.

Installation Tips

• No Tools Required: This is a simple "snap-on" repair. Empty the lower rack and remove it from the dishwasher for the best access.
• Removing the Old Assembly: Locate the plastic locking tabs on the mount that grip the rack wire. Press the tab inward or use a small flat-head screwdriver to gently pry the clip off the wire.
• Check the Placement: Before installing the new wheels, check the wheel on the opposite side to ensure you are placing the new W10195416 in the correct horizontal and vertical position.
• The "Snap" Fit: Align the new wheel assembly with the rack wire and push firmly until you hear a distinct "click." This ensures the locking fingers have fully engaged.
• Replace in Pairs: Even if only one wheel is broken, it is recommended to replace the pair on that side (or the entire set) to ensure the rack moves evenly and doesn't put uneven stress on new components.
