Agitators

Find the perfect agitator to keep your washer running smoothly and ensure your laundry gets the clean it deserves

Washing Machine Agitators and Agitator Parts

Washing machine agitators are essential components in many top-loading washers. The agitator sits in the center of the washer drum and moves clothes through the water during the wash cycle. This motion helps remove dirt, stains, and detergent residue by creating strong water circulation inside the tub.

If the agitator becomes worn or damaged, your washing machine may struggle to clean clothes effectively. In some cases the agitator may stop moving entirely, causing clothes to remain mostly stationary during the wash cycle.

Our selection of washer agitators and agitator parts includes compatible replacements for many popular appliance brands including Samsung, Whirlpool, LG, GE, Maytag, and Kenmore. Replacing a worn agitator can help restore proper washing performance and improve cleaning results.

If your washer is not agitating properly, see our troubleshooting guides such as washer won’t spin troubleshooting, loud washer noise during spin, and washer control board issues. These guides explain how agitators and related components affect the wash cycle.

Signs Your Washing Machine Agitator Needs Replacement

When a washer agitator begins to fail, the washing machine may still run but clothes will not move through the water properly. This can lead to poor cleaning performance and detergent residue left behind on fabrics.

Common signs of a worn or damaged agitator include:

  • Washer running but clothes not moving during wash cycle
  • Weak or inconsistent agitation
  • Grinding or clicking noises from the agitator
  • Agitator spinning freely without resistance
  • Clothes remaining tangled or poorly cleaned

Agitators rely on internal components such as agitator dogs, splines, and couplers to move the drum correctly. When these parts wear out, the agitator may stop gripping the wash drum or lose its ability to rotate properly.

In addition to agitators, other washer components can affect the wash cycle. You may also want to inspect related parts such as washer motors, washer bearings, and washer control boards.

Helpful Washer Repair Guides

Replacing a worn agitator or agitator component can restore proper movement inside the washer drum and help ensure clothes are cleaned thoroughly during each cycle.
