H0020600157 Genuine 6306 Bearing for Haier Washing Machines, Front Loader Drum Bearing Replacement

This genuine Haier bearing, part H0020600157, is a size 6306 ball bearing. In front loading washing machines, bearings of this size are typically fitted to the tub to carry the drum shaft. It's the Haier numbered version, and no models are on file, so check the size stamped on your old bearing and the part number in your model's parts list before ordering.

Loud spin or rumbling drum?

Drum bearings support the full weight of the wet wash as it spins. When the tub seal lets water through, the grease washes out and the bearing rusts and roughens. The first sign is usually a rumble or roar that gets louder as the spin speeds up. You may also feel play when rocking the drum up and down by hand, or spot rust streaks and grease marks behind the drum. Left too long, a failed bearing can damage the shaft and the tub.

Bearing replacement tips

Changing drum bearings is a big job, usually done by a technician. The tub has to come out and, on many front loaders, be split or cut open to press the old bearings out. Always fit a new seal along with the bearings, as a worn seal is what ruins them. Unplug the machine and turn off the water first, keep track of every fixing, and test on a full spin once reassembled.

Questions about this part

Is a 6306 bearing from a bearing shop the same?

A standard 6306 shares the same basic size, but bearings vary in seal type, clearance and grade. This listing is the Haier numbered part, so ordering it means you get the bearing Haier specifies for its machines.
