Vypart Washer Suspension Rods 4-Pack for Samsung WA45T3200AW/A4 — 26.18 in Reinforced Steel, Spring Dampers

These four Vypart suspension rods replace worn damper rods (DC97-16350U/E/C/V) to stop vibration and restore balance in compatible Samsung top-load washing machines.

If your Samsung top-load washer shakes, bangs, or flags error codes like DC, UR, UB, or UE during spin cycles, the suspension rods are a common wear item. Vypart’s 4-piece kit (approx. 26.18 inches each) is designed as a direct replacement for several Samsung part numbers and fits many WA-series models. Built from strengthened steel with a spring assembly, these rods act as shock absorbers to reduce noise, steady the drum and extend your washer’s usable life.

How do these rods improve washer performance?

Worn or broken suspension rods allow the tub to shift excessively during spin, causing loud banging, heavy vibration, and imbalance errors. Replacing all four rods restores the tub’s controlled movement so the machine can spin smoothly and quieter.

• Absorbs and disperses drum motion for reduced vibration and noise.
• Helps correct balance-related error codes (DC, UR, UB, UE) during spins.
• Evenly stabilizes the tub to protect other components like the motor and bearings.

What are the rods made of and how durable are they?

Vypart suspension rods use reinforced steel shafts paired with a spring assembly that meets typical OEM performance expectations. The construction aims to tolerate repeated compressions and the weight shifts of a loaded wash tub, giving dependable life when installed correctly.

• High-strength steel for the rod and robust spring for shock absorption.
• Manufactured to match OEM dimensions for straightforward replacement.
• Sold as a full set of four—replacing all at once prevents uneven wear.

How hard is installation and what tools are needed?

Installation is straightforward for people comfortable with basic appliance work and takes roughly 25–30 minutes. Vypart provides guidance and links to a step-by-step video; you only need simple tools and to disconnect power and water first.

• Basic tools: screwdriver, pliers, and tape to hold parts during reassembly.
• Instructional video available to follow each step and confirm orientation.
• Replacing all four rods at once is recommended for balanced performance.

Who is this for: This Vypart 4PCS suspension rod kit is intended for homeowners and repair technicians who own compatible Samsung top-load washers that exhibit excessive vibration, loud spinning noises, or balance-related error codes. Choose this kit if you want an OEM-dimension replacement set to restore stability, extend the washer’s service life, and avoid costly component damage from continued operation with broken dampers.
