Electrolux part 4055561494 is a genuine #8 gauge screw, 5\/16 inch long, with a countersunk head and a #2 Phillips drive. It's the factory specified fastener for Electrolux group appliances that call for this size. Check your appliance's parts list for 4055561494, or compare the gauge, length and head shape with the screws you're replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the right appliance screw matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppliance screws aren't all the same. The gauge, length, thread and head shape are chosen for the panel or bracket they hold. A countersunk head sits flush with the surface, which matters where a panel, trim or door part has to sit flat or slide past something. Too long a screw can pierce a liner, insulation or wiring behind the panel, while too short a screw won't hold and can rattle loose. Using the specified part keeps panels secure and the finish neat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 4055561494\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e#8 gauge x 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountersunk head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e#2 Phillips drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#8 x 5\/16 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountersunk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDrive\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#2 Phillips\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTips for fitting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the appliance off at the wall before removing or refitting panels. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver that fits the head snugly so it doesn't cam out and chew the recess. Start the screw by hand to follow the existing thread, and stop as soon as it's snug, particularly in plastic, where overtightening strips the hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I know this is the right screw?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLook for 4055561494 in the parts list for your appliance.
