Description
Restore the airtight seal of your freezer compartment with the OEM-replacement DA97-05557Y gasket. This high-quality door seal is designed for select Samsung top-freezer and side-by-side refrigerators. It ensures cold air stays in, warm air stays out, and energy efficiency is maximized. Because door integrity affects temperature control and frost buildup, please check with your maintenance technician to confirm this part number matches your appliance model before ordering.


Features & Benefits

  • Genuine OEM part or directFit equivalent — built to match the original gasket’s material, dimensions and magnetic closure for a proper seal. Samsung Parts USA+1

  • Measures approximately 34-3/4″ long x 23-1/2″ wide (centerline to centerline) — accurately sized for the compatible fridge models. mccombssupply.com

  • Gray color with embedded magnet in sealing flange helps maintain consistent door closure and prevent air leaks, helping to keep your freezer running efficiently. mccombssupply.com

  • Helps reduce frost buildup, prevents premature defrost cycles, protects food from freezer burn, and can reduce energy consumption by maintaining proper seal integrity.

  • Straightforward installation — gasket can be fitted by a technician or proficient DIYer; re-sealing the door eliminates many issues caused by leaking air or compromised gasket.


Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement

  • Frost or ice accumulation around the door frame or on the freezer door due to warm air infiltration.

  • Freezer compartment temperature creeping higher than set-point, or the freezer continually running longer to compensate.

  • Door appears to close normally but you feel cold air escaping, or there is a visible gap between door and cabinet.

  • Seal looks cracked, deformed, flattened, brittle or has lost its magnetic attraction (door doesn’t “snap” shut as it used to).

  • Exterior of freezer door or adjoining areas feel warmer than usual or you notice moisture/condensation at the seal.
    If you observe any of these symptoms, consult your maintenance technician to verify this gasket is the root cause before ordering replacement.

Compatibility Notes

  • Always verify the full model number of your refrigerator and compare to the serious service tag – many models look similar but may require a different gasket version.

  • Door gaskets go by size and sealing profile; even if the old gasket looks similar, slight dimension or magnet placement differences can cause poor sealing.

  • Because a compromised door seal allows warm air infiltration, this part can improve performance, but if there are other underlying issues (door hinge misalignment, damaged cabinet liner, warped door, defrost system fault) the gasket alone may not fix the problem completely. A qualified technician should inspect any related issues.

  • Installation typically requires removing the old gasket, cleaning the mounting channel, possibly softening/flexing new gasket (some installers warm gently to ease fit) and ensuring full door clearance. Samsung Parts USA

  • After installation, monitor freezer performance for a full daily cycle to confirm seal integrity and stable temperatures.
