Electrolux part 140048189017 is the genuine screw used to mount the handle on fridges built on Electrolux's MD36 platform. Because it's made for the handle's mounting points, it's a safer choice than a hardware store screw that might strip the thread. Count how many you need before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy fridge handle screws work loose\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFridge handles get pulled hard many times a day, and all of that load goes through a few small screws. Over time they can back out, strip their threads or snap, leaving a handle that wobbles, rattles or tilts away from the door. Carrying on with a loose handle makes things worse, because the screw holes wear oversize and the handle can crack at its mounts. Tightening or replacing the screws early keeps the handle firm and protects the door.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 140048189017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle mounting screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor MD36 platform fridges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTightening up the handle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost handle screws hide under end caps or trim covers, which prise off with a plastic tool. Support the handle while you remove the old screw, then fit the new one and tighten it firmly without overdoing it, as a stripped thread in the door is a bigger problem. Refit the covers once the handle is solid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many screws does my handle need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt depends on the handle design. Count the screws holding your handle and order one for each that's damaged or missing. If you can't see them, they're usually under the end caps.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Electrolux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44550494289998,"sku":"140048189017","price":2.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/140048189017-genuine-electrolux-fridge-door-handle-mounting-screw","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
