W11117302 Dryer Lint Screen Grille
Key Features
- Protective Snag-Free Design: Designed with smooth, precision-molded slots that allow maximum airflow for efficient drying while preventing delicate clothing from being sucked into the exhaust duct or snagging on sharp edges.
- High-Temperature Resistant Polymer: Constructed from premium, heat-resistant plastic that withstands the continuous extreme temperatures of the dryer's exhaust system without warping, cracking, or becoming brittle over time.
- Secure Filter Housing: Acts as the primary mounting channel for the lint screen, ensuring the filter seats perfectly flush and creates a tight seal to capture maximum lint and debris.
- Direct Factory Replacement: Engineered to exact OEM specifications, matching the original mounting screw holes and housing dimensions for a seamless, gap-free installation.
- Airflow Optimization: Maintains the crucial air-flow balance required by your dryer's heating elements and thermostats, preventing overheating issues caused by collapsed or broken grilles.

Compatibility & Fitment
This lint screen grille is a direct replacement for standard dryers from the following brands:
- Whirlpool
- Maytag
- Kenmore
- Crosley
- Amana
- Roper
- Estate
- Inglis
When to Replace
- Cracked or Broken Plastic: The most common failure is physical damage from zippers, buttons, or heavy shoes tumbling against the grille, creating sharp edges that destroy clothing.
- Clothes Getting Snagged: If you find small tears, burn marks, or black streaks on your garments after a cycle, the grille is likely warped and trapping fabric as it spins.
- Lint Filter Won't Stay Down: If the lint screen constantly pops up during operation, the internal retaining tabs on the grille have snapped off.
- Visible Warping: Extreme heat over time can cause the plastic to bow outward, creating a gap where unfiltered lint bypasses the screen and clogs your exhaust vent.
Installation Tips
- Safety First: CRITICAL: Always unplug the dryer from the electrical outlet before beginning any internal repair.
- Keep Track of Screws: PRO TIP: The grille is typically held in place by two or three interior screws. Place a towel inside the dryer drum over the lint trap before removing them so they do not accidentally fall down into the blower wheel housing.
- Clean the Cavity: Once the old grille is removed, use a long vacuum attachment to thoroughly clean the lint trap housing. This is the perfect time to remove years of hidden, compacted lint that restricts airflow.
- Avoid Over-Tightening: When installing the new W11117302 grille, hand-tighten the screws just until they are snug. Using a power drill or over-tightening can crack the brand-new plastic housing.
