Washing Machine Shock Absorber / Damper – Defy & LG Front Loaders
The Washing Machine Shock Absorber / Damper is a replacement suspension component suitable for many Defy front loader washing machines and selected LG front loader models. The damper connects the outer tub to the washing machine cabinet and helps control movement during washing and high-speed spinning.
This part helps restore stable operation when the original shock absorber has become worn, loose, damaged or no longer provides sufficient resistance. Faulty dampers may allow the tub to move excessively, causing the washing machine to shake, knock, vibrate or move across the floor during the spin cycle.
Product Features
- Part type: Washing machine shock absorber / suspension damper
- Suitable for many Defy front loader washing machines
- Suitable for selected LG front loader washing machines
- Helps stabilise the outer tub during washing and spinning
- Reduces excessive vibration, shaking and cabinet movement
- Helps prevent the tub from striking the washing machine cabinet
- Supports smoother and quieter operation during high-speed spinning
- Replacement for worn, weak, loose, damaged or broken dampers
- May be used as a replacement for similar dampers with matching dimensions and mounting points
Common Symptoms This Part May Fix
- Washing machine shaking excessively during spinning
- Machine moving or walking across the floor
- Loud banging or knocking during the spin cycle
- Outer tub striking the cabinet
- Drum appearing loose or moving excessively
- Machine becoming unstable with heavier loads
- Excessive vibration even when the appliance is level
- Knocking noise when the drum changes direction
- Worn or loose shock absorber mounting bushes
- Damper offering little or no resistance when moved by hand
Replacement Recommendation
Shock absorbers normally wear at a similar rate. Where possible, it is recommended to replace the dampers as a complete set to maintain balanced resistance and reduce uneven tub movement.
Important Fitment Note
This damper fits many Defy machines and selected LG front loaders, but it is not suitable for every model. Washing machine dampers may differ in resistance rating, compressed length, extended length, mounting-hole diameter, pin size and mounting orientation. Please compare the dimensions, mounting points and resistance with the original damper before ordering.
