WP8544739 - Whirlpool Dryer Pulley

This Whirlpool Dryer Pulley (WP8544739) is a genuine part designed for Whirlpool dryers. It is also known as a "motor pulley." Drive pulleys in dryer transmissions govern drum rotation speed based on motor rpm. Pulleys directly couple motors or use belts for speed reductions and torque amplification. The ribbed pulley faces grip belts to prevent slippage. Seized, bent, or broken pulleys impair tumbling, requiring repair or replacement. Properly aligned pulleys translate motor power into drum rotation. If your dryer drum is not turning properly or is making unusual noises, it might be time to check the condition of the dryer pulley. Before purchasing, please verify your device's model number for compatibility.
