3051162 & 3051163 Range Drawer Glide Replacement - Pack of 2

Key Features

• High-Density Friction-Reducing Plastic: Engineered from a durable polymer that allows the storage drawer to slide smoothly along the metal frame, eliminating metal-on-metal grinding.
• Snap-In Mounting Design: Features integrated locking tabs for a quick, tool-free installation directly into the pre-drilled slots of the range chassis.
• Enhanced Load Support: Built to withstand the constant weight of heavy cast-iron pans and baking sheets, preventing the drawer from sagging or warping under pressure.
• Dual-Position Stability: The coordinated front (3051162) and rear (3051163) glides work together to keep the drawer perfectly level and prevent it from tipping when fully extended.
• Heat-Resistant Construction: Manufactured from a specialized plastic that maintains its structural integrity and remains flexible even in the high-ambient temperatures found beneath the oven cavity.

When to Replace

• Drawer Sagging or Tilting: The storage drawer no longer sits flush with the range frame, indicating a snapped or heavily worn front glide.
• Audible Grinding: You hear a "metal-on-metal" screeching sound when opening the drawer, suggesting the plastic glide has worn through or fallen off.
• Drawer Falling Off Tracks: Broken glides allow the drawer to jump out of its designated path, making it difficult to close or causing it to pull out completely.
• Visible Cracks: The plastic has become brittle over time and shows hairline fractures that will lead to failure under the weight of your cookware.

Installation Tips

• Empty the Drawer: PRO TIP: Remove all heavy pots and pans before attempting the repair. This makes the drawer significantly easier to handle and prevents damage to the new glides during installation.
• Track Cleaning: Before snapping in the new glides, use a degreaser to wipe down the metal tracks on both the drawer and the range frame. Removing old grit and grease will double the lifespan of the new plastic glides.
• Identify Orientation: 3051162 is the Front glide and 3051163 is the Rear glide. Ensure you match the correct part to the correct mounting hole on the range frame.
• Check the Locking Tab: Press the glide firmly into the slot until you hear a distinct "click." If it doesn't snap in, ensure there is no debris or old plastic fragments stuck in the mounting hole.
• Test the Glide: Reinsert the drawer and slide it in and out several times to ensure it moves freely and sits level before reloading your cookware.
