Part WE16X39861 Lint Filter

Purpose

Captures lint during drying

Details

This dryer lint filter screen traps lint and debris from clothing during the drying cycle, helping maintain proper airflow and efficient performance. A clogged, torn, or missing lint filter can restrict airflow, increase drying times, and create a potential fire hazard. Replacing a damaged filter restores optimal air circulation and helps protect internal dryer components from lint buildup. This filter is designed for select GE dryers and installs easily into the designated lint housing. Compatibility varies by model; confirm with your model’s diagram before ordering.
