GE WB2X3138 Oven Door Gasket / Seal – OEM Replacement
The **WB2X3138 Oven Door Gasket** is a critical seal that fits around the perimeter of the oven cavity opening. Its purpose is to create a tight, heat-resistant barrier between the oven door and the frame. A damaged, brittle, or worn-out gasket is the most common cause of heat loss, uneven baking, and high energy consumption. This woven, OEM-style replacement restores efficient heat retention and proper cooking performance to your GE oven.
Features & Benefits
- **Prevents Heat Loss:** Creates a complete seal to keep high oven temperatures contained inside the cavity.
- **Improves Energy Efficiency:** Ensures the oven heats faster and maintains temperature more efficiently.
- **Durable Construction:** Made from high-quality, braided fiberglass material designed to withstand extreme oven temperatures.
- **Restores Uniform Baking:** Eliminates hot or cold spots near the door, leading to more consistent cooking results.

- Oven handle is excessively hot to the touch during operation.
- Heat or steam is visibly escaping around the oven door edges.
