4861EN3004B Genuine LG Clamp Assembly for LG Front Load Washing Machines, Door Seal Wire Clamp Ring Replacement

Part 4861EN3004B is a genuine LG clamp assembly for front load washing machines. It's the B version of LG's 4861EN3004 clamp, the wire clamp ring that holds the rubber door seal, or bellows, in place. Match the full number, including the B suffix, before ordering, because LG uses different clamp sizes and versions across its washer ranges.

Door seal clamp problems on an LG front loader

The clamp is a wire band that pulls the door seal tight into its groove so water can't escape during the wash. Clamps are often damaged when a door seal is removed, stretched too far or bent out of shape, and a weak clamp lets the seal lift at one point. That usually shows up as water dripping under the door, a wet patch at the front of the machine, or a seal that pops off its lip during a spin. When replacing a door seal it pays to fit a fresh clamp too, so the new seal is held evenly all the way around.

Fitting the clamp

Unplug the washer and make sure the drum is empty and the machine has drained. Seat the door seal properly in its groove first, then stretch the clamp around it, starting at the top and working down both sides. A flat blade helps guide the wire into the channel, finishing at the tensioner. Check the seal sits evenly, then run a rinse cycle to test for leaks.

Questions about this part

Is the clamp included with a new door seal?

Not always. Many door seals are sold on their own, so check what came with yours. If your old clamp is stretched, kinked or rusty, replace it at the same time, after confirming 4861EN3004B is the clamp listed for your model.
