Each time the door closes, the embedded magnetic strip draws the gasket flush against the cabinet frame, locking cold air in and preventing warm, moisture-laden kitchen air from entering the compartment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpress Parts Direct stocks this as a Genuine OEM part direct from Frigidaire. When a gasket cracks, stiffens, or loses its magnetic retention, the freezer works harder to hold temperature — driving up energy costs and shortening compressor life. Replacing with the factory-original gasket restores the seal to as-built specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"epd-section-title\"\u003eCommon Symptoms of a Failing Gasket\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"epd-symptoms-list\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFrost or ice buildup along the freezer door edges or on the interior walls\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFreezer compartment warmer than the set temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCondensation or moisture forming around the freezer door frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVisible gaps, tears, cracks, or hardened sections in the existing gasket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompressor running more frequently or for longer cycles than usual\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRefrigerator section running warmer, as the compressor struggles to maintain both compartments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"epd-warning-box\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e⚠ Installation Note\u003c\/strong\u003e\n  Unplug the refrigerator before replacing the gasket. The new gasket may arrive tightly folded — soak it in warm water for 10–15 minutes to relax it and make it easier to work into the door channel.

Cross-reference that model number against the compatibility list for 241786016. The brand name printed on the exterior of the refrigerator is less reliable for parts lookup because Frigidaire manufactured refrigerators sold under Kenmore, Crosley, Westinghouse, Electrolux, and Gibson labels using the same underlying platforms and parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"epd-faq-item\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"epd-faq-q\"\u003eMy freezer door feels cold to the touch on the outside — does that mean the gasket is leaking?\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"epd-faq-a\"\u003eNot necessarily — some external surface cooling is normal near the door hinge area. A better indicator of a gasket failure is warmth or airflow felt along the door seal itself. Close your freezer door and slowly run your hand around the entire perimeter of the gasket. If you feel cold air escaping at any point, the gasket has lost its seal at that location. You can also do the dollar bill test: insert a bill so it straddles the gasket and close the door. Resistance when pulling the bill out indicates a good seal; if it slides out freely, the gasket needs replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"epd-faq-item\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"epd-faq-q\"\u003eWhy does the cross-reference list include so many different part numbers?\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"epd-faq-a\"\u003eFrigidaire has used this same gasket across a large number of top-freezer refrigerator models produced over many years, sold under multiple brand names. As part numbers were updated or consolidated over production runs, the older numbers were superseded by newer ones. All the part numbers listed for 241786016 refer to the same gasket — they're just different catalog numbers from different eras or different parts suppliers. If your existing gasket carries any of those numbers, 241786016 is the correct current replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"epd-faq-item\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"epd-faq-q\"\u003eIs this a Genuine OEM part or an aftermarket copy?\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"epd-faq-a\"\u003eThis is Genuine OEM — manufactured by Frigidaire, not a third-party aftermarket supplier. The part number 241786016 is Frigidaire's own factory part number. Express Parts Direct sources directly from authorized distributors to ensure you receive the authentic part, not a lookalike with potentially inferior rubber compound or magnetic strip strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"epd-faq-item\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"epd-faq-q\"\u003eCan a refrigerator run safely while waiting for the gasket to arrive?\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"epd-faq-a\"\u003eYes, a refrigerator with a failed freezer door gasket can still operate, though it will be less efficient. The compressor will run more often trying to compensate for the air infiltration. For the interim, you can minimize the impact by keeping the freezer as full as possible (frozen mass retains cold better than air), limiting the number of times you open the freezer door, and checking that the door is fully latched shut. If temperatures are rising enough to compromise frozen food safety, you may want to use a secondary cooler for the most critical items until the new gasket arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Frigidaire","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67938227552309,"sku":"241786016","price":78.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0285\/1107\/6405\/files\/241786016_2.png?v=1794281500","url":"https:\/\/expresspartsdirect.com\/products\/241786016-refrigerator-genuine-freezer-door-gasket-black","provider":"Express Parts Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
