Brass is chosen for nuts where corrosion resistance or a softer thread than steel is wanted. Our records don't show the thread size, the dryer models or exactly where it fits. Check your dryer's exploded parts diagram for 479891, or send us your model and serial number and we'll help locate it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a missing dryer nut matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNuts in a dryer clamp parts that spin or vibrate, such as fans, pulleys and brackets. A nut that has worked loose, stripped or gone missing during a repair can let a part wobble, rub or fall out of line, which shows up as rattling, scraping or knocking while the drum turns. Left alone, the loose part can damage the belt, fan or housing. Using the correct F\u0026amp;P nut keeps the thread and clamping as designed, rather than relying on a hardware store substitute that may not match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel part 479891\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumbered among Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel dryer service parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread size, position and models not on record\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the nut\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the dryer before removing any panels. Clean the thread on the stud or shaft and check it isn't damaged, as a new nut won't hold on a stripped thread. Start the nut by hand, then tighten it firmly with the correct spanner without overdoing it, since brass is softer than steel. Spin the drum by hand to check nothing rubs before running the dryer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan you tell me the thread size of 479891?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe don't have the thread size on record.
