Restore a watertight seal on serviced appliance components with this genuine OEM Whirlpool Electrical Grade Silicone Sealant - WP482338. This white genuine OEM Whirlpool silicone sealant forms a moisture-resistant bond on supported appliance service joints and sealed assemblies.

It is commonly used on appliance repairs that require a clean white silicone bead instead of a generic adhesive.

Is it time to replace?

• Common Symptoms: Moisture seepage around a serviced seam, a factory bead that was removed during disassembly, or a previously sealed joint that no longer stays watertight.
• Visible/Sensory Cues: Split or missing white silicone, brittle sealant residue, visible gaps at a seam, or bond lines that have lifted away from the surface.

Pro Tip: Apply the sealant only after the repair surfaces are fully dry and free of old silicone so the new bead can cure with full adhesion.
