Description / Maytag Wringer Washer Replacement Center Plate Assembly
The center plate assembly A5169 sits on top of the transmission. It houses the water seals and agitator shaft, which take the most abuse due to exposure to detergents and the agitator's constant motion. When the agitator shaft wears or the seals leak, water penetrates the transmission gearbox and begins to corrode the center plate, which eventually needs to be replaced.
The Amish relied on these old wringer washers, as most Americans did in the early 1900s, until modern spin-cycle machines were developed. As manufacturing and replacement parts moved forward, the Amish began to have difficulty obtaining parts to maintain the wringer washers. They began manufacturing their own supply of replacement Maytag parts, which they still do today. Cottage Craft Works.com takes a step back in time to help people who are still using or restoring the vintage home and farm equipment acquire replacement parts.
The washer parts listed are the most sought-after Maytag parts. Our Amish shop can procure or fabricate almost any part used on round or square tub machines. Since the Amish convert most machines to gas, air, or DC motors, they don’t manufacture new electric motors; however, they do offer a suitable replacement frame motor. They also don’t use the drain pump, allowing the washer to gravity drain instead. If you need a water pump, we can source a used takeoff. Just email us to check the availability of any parts we don’t list.
Canadian customers, please email us the parts you need, and we will calculate the shipping cost and issue an invoice in US Dollars. Duties and taxes will still be due to your country upon delivery.
Parts ship directly from an Amish-owned business without computers; please expect some orders to take up to two weeks to ship. Most parts are in stock, but some may need to be manufactured.
