165314 Dishwasher Lower Rack Wheel - For Bosch & Kenmore Dishwashers - 8 Pack

165314 Lower Dish Rack Roller Wheel

Key Features

• High-Temperature "Sani-Safe" Polymer: Manufactured from a specialized, reinforced plastic designed to endure the intense thermal stress of Bosch's high-temperature "Sanitize" and "Extra Dry" settings without warping or cracking.
• Precision Snap-Lock Mounting: Features a tool-free, integrated clip system that snaps securely onto the lower rack wire frame, ensuring a stable, low-friction pivot point for the roller.
• High-Load Smooth Glide: The wheel surface is precision-molded to provide a consistent, quiet glide over the tub's track, even when the lower rack is fully loaded with heavy stoneware and cast iron pots.
• Detergent-Resistant Construction: 100% rust-proof and resistant to the caustic enzymes found in modern dishwasher pods and rinse aids, preventing the wheels from seizing or degrading over time.
• Complete 8-Piece Restoration Kit: This value pack provides a full set of replacement rollers for the entire lower rack, restoring the level balance and preventing the rack from tipping or jumping off the tracks.

Compatibility & Fitment

This roller wheel is the standard replacement for the lower rack of most Bosch-manufactured dishwashers. Key compatible brands include:

• Bosch: Fits hundreds of SHE, SHX, SHU, SHI, and SHP series models (e.g., SHE43P25UC, SHX33A05UC, SHP65TL5UC).
• Kenmore (100 Series): Fits many 100-prefix models produced by Bosch for Sears (e.g., 100.22233).
• Thermador & Gaggenau: Compatible with various high-end DWHD and GI series units utilizing the 165314 wheel style.
• Note: Specifically for the Lower Rack. These wheels have a larger diameter and different clip style than the wheels found on the upper rack.

When to Replace

• Rack Falling into the Tub: The lower rack constantly derails or drops into the bottom of the dishwasher because the wheels have snapped off or the clips have broken.
• Stuck or Jammed Rack: The rack feels "stiff" or requires excessive force to pull out, usually due to flat spots on the rollers or the wheels becoming seized by mineral buildup.
• Brittle or Melting Plastic: Visible damage from contact with the heating element or long-term heat exposure, causing the wheels to wobble or crumble into the tub.
• Missing Wheels: Plastic fatigue causes the mounting clips to snap during loading, leaving the wheels at the bottom of the dishwasher after a cycle.
• Loud Screeching/Grinding: A high-pitched sound when moving the rack indicates the plastic-on-plastic bearing surface has worn through.

Installation Tips

• No Tools Required: This is a simple "snap-on" repair. Remove the lower rack from the dishwasher and place it on a counter or the floor for easier access.
• Removing the Old Wheel: If the old wheel is still attached, use a small flat-head screwdriver to gently pry the plastic clip away from the rack wire. Be careful not to bend the wire frame.
• Clean the Wire Frame: Wipe away any old food particles or mineral deposits from the rack wire where the new wheel will attach to ensure a secure, permanent lock.
• The "Click" Test: Position the new 165314 wheel against the rack wire and press firmly until you hear a distinct "click." This ensures the locking tabs have fully engaged.
• Check the Tub Tracks: Before sliding the rack back in, inspect the plastic or metal track inside the dishwasher tub for any debris or obstructions that could cause the new wheels to jump.
