F\u0026amp;P's description doesn't say which appliance it comes from, and there are no linked models in our records. Match the part number on your parts list, or compare it with the washer you're replacing. F\u0026amp;P also lists a separate handle washer, 793998, without the silicone description, so check which one your parts list calls for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a handle washer matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWashers at a handle mount sit between the handle and the panel it fixes to. A silicone washer gives a bit of cushion and grip, helping the handle stay tight without the fixing digging into the finish. Once a washer splits, compresses flat or goes missing, the handle can work loose, wobble, click when pulled, or leave marks around the mounting point. Replacing the washer while the handle is off is quick and saves trouble later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel part 793997\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilicone, as listed in F\u0026amp;P's description\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate part from handle washer 793998\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\u003eSilicone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRefitting the handle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch the appliance off first. Remove the handle screws while supporting the handle so it doesn't swing into the panel. Clean the mounting area, sit the new washer in the same spot as the old one, and refit the handle. Tighten firmly but not so hard that the silicone squashes out of shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many washers do I need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat depends on your handle. Most handles mount at two or more points, and each point may use its own washer. Count the washers on your existing handle before ordering, and order one 793997 for each position you're replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fisher \u0026 Paykel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551423131726,"sku":"793997","price":8.83,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/793997-genuine-fisher-and-paykel-silicone-handle-washer","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
