Maytag HOH door gaskets Another part grouping that would likely be of interest regarding reproduction would be the door gaskets for the Maytag Halo of Heat dryers. Andrew S. | ||

Thor Boot...
Hi Adam,
I saw your comment about the Thor Automagic boot, I will have a look at who I used in the UK, I approached a company many years ago who manufactured rubber bellows for the automotive industry and they made one for me, I sent them the split one as a guide. I thought i would never be able to get my very first Automagic from 1996 into operation but it was saved and still runs perfect to this day. The repro was thinner than the original but had a good amount of stretch to it to allow for unbalanced loads. Regards Keith

I would also be VERY interested in a reproduction of a westinghouse door boot. I have an old broken one that might make a good template. Shoot me a message if you think that it could work.
Also, the drain pump pulley tire is another failure point of these machines and there’s nothing left out there that can replace it. I also have a broken one of these too, if it helps to make a new one. -Mark | ||
