Part 765550381 is the genuine Smeg pin that blocks the basket at the end of its runners. It is listed for a wide range of Smeg dishwashers, including the DWA6314X and DWA314X, the DWA147X, and the DWAU6314X, plus SA and ST models such as the SA8605X, SA8210X-1 and ST8605. If a basket keeps rolling off its rails, a missing pin is a likely reason.

Dishwasher basket rolling off its runners?

The basket runs on wheels along rails inside the tub, and this pin sits at the end of a rail to stop the basket rolling past it. Without the pin, the basket can run straight off the track when you pull it out, dropping its load onto the open door and sometimes breaking glasses or bending the rails. Pins tend to go missing during cleaning or after a basket has been forced out, and they can also crack with age. If one end of your basket lifts off its rail or tips forward when fully extended, check whether the stop pin is still there.

Fitting the stop pin

Make sure the dishwasher is off and the cycle has finished. Pull the basket out and look at the ends of the rails to see where the pin is missing. Slide the basket back past the pin position, then push the new pin into its hole or slot at the rail end until it seats firmly. Pull the basket fully out to check it now stops where it should.
