Lapert washer door boot gasket MDS47123602 replacement — front-load seal, corrosion-resistant elastomer

Lapert MDS47123602 (also listed as MDS47123601) is a direct-replacement washer door boot gasket designed to restore a watertight seal on compatible front-load washers.

If your front-load washing machine is leaking, making unusual noises near the door, or showing visible wear on the rubber bellows, this OEM-style boot seal is built to fit and perform. Manufactured from upgraded synthetic elastomer, the Lapert gasket resists corrosion and oxidation so it holds shape and function longer than older, brittle seals. It matches part numbers used across several Kenmore Elite and other models, making it a practical repair part for home technicians and do-it-yourselfers.

Will this gasket stop water leakage around my washer door?

How difficult is the installation — can I replace it myself?

Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic appliance repairs. You’ll typically need a screwdriver, the original clamp or a replacement clamp, and a pair of work gloves; many installers rely on short video guides to follow the step-by-step process.

• Unplug the washer and pull it forward for access.
• Remove the front trim ring and the old boot using a screwdriver and spring clamp tool if needed.
• Seat the new gasket into the tub lip and reapply the retention band and door trim.
• Allow online videos or manufacturer instructions to guide tricky steps.
