This Part Fixes These Problems

Noisy Dryer

Worn or flat-spotted drum rollers cause loud rumbling, thumping, squealing, or grinding noises during the drying cycle. Replacing the roller assembly restores quiet, smooth operation.

Drum Won't Spin

Seized roller axles prevent the drum from rotating freely, causing the motor to overload and the dryer to stop mid-cycle or fail to start spinning altogether.

Dryer Stops Mid-Cycle

When drum roller bearings fail and lock up, the added drag overloads the drive motor, triggering a thermal cutout and stopping the dryer unexpectedly during operation.

Excessive Drum Vibration

A roller with a flat spot or cracked bushing creates uneven drum support, causing the entire cabinet to vibrate and the drum to bounce or wobble during rotation.

💡 Pro Tip: How to Know Your Drum Roller Has Failed

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Loud rumbling, thumping, or squealing noise during the drying cycle

⚠️ Drum stops spinning mid-cycle or won't turn at all when the dryer starts

⚠️ Dryer motor overloads and trips — caused by seized or flat-spotted roller axles

⚠️ Visible flat spots, cracks, or excessive wobble on the roller when inspected by hand

🔍 Diagnostic Tip: Spin each roller by hand with the drum removed. A good roller spins freely and silently. If it drags, grinds, or wobbles, replace all rollers on that end (front pair or rear pair) at the same time — they wear at the same rate. Most Samsung dryers use 4 rollers total (2 front + 2 rear), so order accordingly.

Questions & Answers

How many DC97-16782A rollers do I need to replace my Samsung dryer?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
Most Samsung dryers use 4 drum support rollers total — 2 supporting the rear of the drum and 2 supporting the front. Each DC97-16782A package contains one roller, shaft, and mounting clips, so you will need to order 4 units for a complete replacement. We strongly recommend replacing all rollers on the same end (front pair or rear pair) at the same time, as they wear at the same rate.
Is the DC97-16782A compatible with both gas and electric Samsung dryers?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
Yes. The DC97-16782A drum support roller is a mechanical part that works identically in both gas (DVG-series) and electric (DVE / DV-series) Samsung dryers. The drum support system is the same regardless of the heat source. Always verify your full model number before ordering to confirm fitment.
Do I need to grease or lubricate the new drum roller after installation?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
No lubrication is needed. The DC97-16782A features a self-lubricating bearing — as the bearing surfaces seat during initial use, they release lubrication internally. Adding external grease can actually attract lint and debris, which accelerates wear. Simply install the roller dry and it will perform correctly.
What other parts should I replace at the same time as the drum rollers?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
When the drum rollers are worn enough to require replacement, the idler pulley (DC93-00634A) and drive belt (6602-001655) are often at or near end-of-life as well. Since the dryer must be fully disassembled to access the rollers, replacing all three components during the same repair visit saves significant labor time and prevents a callback in the near future.
What part numbers does the DC97-16782A replace?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
The DC97-16782A directly replaces the following part numbers: AP5325135, DC97-16782C, DC97-16782D, DC97-07523A, DC97-07523B, PS4221885, EAP4221885, and 2027851. All of these are interchangeable references for the same Samsung dryer drum support roller and axle assembly.
