896619167456 Genuine Stainless Steel Pedestal Handle for Electrolux Group Appliances, Electrolux Part 8996619167456

Part 896619167456 is a genuine Electrolux group pedestal handle in stainless steel. It is also listed under 8996619167456, and parts lists may show either number. A pedestal handle is a bar that stands off the door on a mount at each end, giving your hand room to grip. Our records don't list the models it fits, so compare the length and fixing centres with your old handle, or send us your model and product number.

Replacing a broken or loose appliance door handle

Door handles get pulled hundreds of times a month, often at an angle, and the mounting points take most of the strain. On a pedestal design the stand-offs can crack, the screw threads can strip, or the bar can bend if someone leans on it. The result is a handle that wobbles, rattles, sits crooked or comes off altogether. A loose handle also puts uneven force on the door, which can upset the seal and hinges over time, so it's worth sorting out early.

Fitting the pedestal handle

Switch the appliance off at the wall or isolator. Handle screws are often hidden under trim caps or inside the door, so check before forcing anything. Support the door while you work and keep track of any spacers or washers. Tighten the screws evenly so the handle sits straight, without overtightening into plastic or thin metal.
