Part 00428344 Dishwasher Lower Rack Tine Clip Kit
Purpose
Secures and anchors adjustable dishrack tine rows.
Details
This genuine OEM dishrack tine clip kit is designed for the lower rack assembly of your dishwasher. It provides the essential anchors and pivot latches required to lock adjustable rows of prongs securely in place. By enabling the tines to flip down flat or lock upright, it allows users to customize the lower rack to fit larger items like stockpots, mixing bowls, and platters. Over time, exposure to high wash temperatures and strong detergents can cause the plastic clips to warp, crack, or snap off. This results in floppy, unanchored tine rows that collapse under the weight of plates or jam the lower dishrack slide. Replacing broken clips restores smooth adjustments and protects dishes from shifting or chipping.
Included Items
4 clamps, 2 latches, and 2 L-shaped sleeve bearings. Required tools (verified): None; snaps directly onto the rack wire frame by hand.
