XPARTCO W10734521 Washer Clutch (Slider Kit)
XPARTCO W10734521 Washer Clutch Slider Kit
The XPARTCO W10734521 is an aftermarket replacement washer clutch slider kit compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Amana, Crosley, Estate, Jenn-Air, Roper, Magic Chef, Admiral, and Kirkland HE top-load washers. The clutch slider kit is part of the drive system that engages and disengages the inner tub from the gearcase — it's responsible for transitioning the washer between agitation and spin modes. The slider gear works together with the electromagnetic clutch and gearcase to move the inner tub during the wash and spin portions of every cycle. When the slider or its spring fails, the washer typically won't spin properly, won't agitate, makes grinding noise, or leaves clothes soaking wet at the end of a cycle.
This kit includes the slider, spring support, 30mm spiral, and bolt. Slider dimensions: 2-7/8" outer diameter x 7/8" deep. Support spring: 1-5/8" outer diameter x 1-1/8" long. Spiral: 1-5/16" outer diameter. Bolt: 7/8" head diameter x 1" high. Construction is metal and plastic in black, white, and gray. Important: this is the slider kit only — it does NOT include the electromagnetic clutch (sold separately as W10754448). The current W10734521 part number supersedes the earlier W10006484, W10006494, W10275082, W10447975, and W10905025. It also replaces 3452506, AP5952873, EAP10060062, PD00025495, and PS10060062. Installs in 60–90 minutes with basic hand tools.

Important — Slider Kit Only, NOT Clutch: This is the clutch slider kit (slider, spring, spiral, bolt) — it does not include the electromagnetic clutch assembly. The electromagnetic clutch is part number W10754448 and is sold separately. If you need both components, order each part separately. Many repair scenarios call for replacing both at the same time, since both wear together. Always verify your model number and confirm exactly which component has failed before ordering.

Installation Notes
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between W10734521 and W10754448?
These are two different parts in the same drive system. The W10734521 is the clutch slider kit — it includes the slider gear, spring support, spiral, and bolt that physically engage/disengage the inner tub from the gearcase to transition between agitation and spin modes. The W10754448 is the electromagnetic clutch itself — the electrical component that drives the engagement. Both can fail independently, and many repair scenarios call for replacing both at the same time since they work together. Confirm exactly which component has failed before ordering, or order both if you're rebuilding the drive system as a full repair.
My washer won't spin — is it the slider or something else?
A washer that won't spin can have several causes: a failed slider kit, a failed electromagnetic clutch (W10754448), a damaged drive belt, a failed motor or rotor, a broken lid switch, or — on some models — a failed gearcase. The slider kit is one of the more common causes when the symptom is "fills and drains but won't spin" with no obvious noise or burning smell. Before replacing the slider, check that the lid latch strike (W11457841 on some models) is engaging properly, the drive belt is intact, and the motor is functioning. If those check out and the slider gear shows visible wear, missing teeth, or a stretched spring, the W10734521 kit is the right repair.
Should I replace all parts in the kit together?
Yes — for the kit to perform as designed, all components should be replaced as a matched set. The slider, spring support, spiral, and bolt all work together — if one is worn, the others have typically experienced the same load and wear. Reusing old components alongside new ones can cause premature failure of the new parts and a repeat repair. The W10734521 kit is priced and packaged for a complete replacement, so install all four pieces during your repair.
What is the difference between W10734521 and the older part numbers it replaces?
W10734521 is the current production version of this slider kit. It directly supersedes W10006484, W10006494, W10275082, W10447975, and W10905025 — all of which were earlier OEM part numbers for variations of the same slider kit across production revisions. Whirlpool consolidated these into the W10734521 to streamline the parts catalog. If your washer's parts diagram shows any of these older numbers, the W10734521 is the correct current replacement.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured from metal and plastic to match the dimensions, gear profile, and drive engagement function of the original W10734521 clutch slider kit used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, and related HE top-load washers.
