It runs around the front edge of the drum, closing the gap between the turning drum and the front panel so hot air goes through the clothes rather than around them. Seals are sized to suit the drum, so check the number against your dryer's parts list before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDryer squeaking or leaving marks on clothes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drum seal works as both a seal and a bearing surface. As the drum turns, its front edge rides against the seal, which keeps air flowing through the load and stops small items slipping into the gap. When the seal wears thin, hardens or tears, the drum can scrape metal on metal, giving a squeal or grinding noise. Other signs are black or grey marks on clothing, socks and lint disappearing behind the drum, and longer drying times as warm air escapes around the drum instead of through it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 8581332203018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront drum seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor Electrolux group clothes dryers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel fit not on file, match the part number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing a dryer drum seal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the dryer before you start. Most front drum seals are reached by removing the front panel or top and supporting the drum. Remove every trace of the old seal and any old glue, and clean the surface it sits on. Fit the new seal evenly without stretching it, refit the drum and panels, then turn the drum by hand to check it runs freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I replace the rear seal at the same time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf your dryer has a rear drum seal and it's also worn, doing both while the drum is out saves a second strip-down.
