Description

Drum shock absorber for stabilised spin cycles

While stabilising the drum during the spin cycle, a drum shock absorber in a washing machine reduces vibrations. It lessens the excessive shaking or bouncing of the machine as it absorbs the shock and movement brought on by the rotating drum. 

Signs my washing machine’s shock absorber is bad

If you notice increased vibrations or excessive noise during the spin cycle, it could be a sign of a faulty shock absorber. Once the washing machine displays unstable movement or wobbling during operation, it is likely that the shock absorber needs to be inspected too. 

Would this drum shock absorber work in my washing machine? 

This drum shock absorber is a genuine Bosch washing machine spare part. It also fits Balay, Constructa, Neff, Siemens, and Smeg washing machines. Use our compatibility checker to see if this part fits your model.

Perfect fit

Really quick and easy to replace, didn't notice any perceptible damping difference when comparing old to new, but after fitting no more vibrations during spin cycle.

East to fit.

I just had to lay the washing machine on its back to get access to the shock absorbers. Unfortunately fitting new ones made a small improvement but did not solve the problem so I now have to order some springs.

Questions And Answers

The 3 shock absorbers, as fitted by the factory, have a square section metal tube with a nylon "beam" that slides in and out. Is this a non Bosch replacement or an improved Bosch part? All three have about 4mm fairly loose movement before the resistance can be felt. Your recomended replacement looks like a steel piston in cylinder, like a car suspension shock absorber.

Hi Alan, this is a genuine Bosch part, which should be the same as the original. Please submit a part enquiry with your model details and we can check to see if this is the correct shock absorber for your model.

The washing machine has 3 of these Suspension Dampers, I would like to order all 3, what is your returns policy if I do not need to use al of them?
By Byron - Leatherhead - 16/03/2022
Hi Byron, if you don't require all three, you can submit a returns enquiry and send the unwanted parts back for a refund. They would need to be unused and in their original packaging.
