Genuine Whirlpool Upper Rack Tine Clip
This genuine OEM clip secures the tine row on the upper dish rack. It replaces part number 8268816 for Whirlpool dishwashers. The clip holds the adjustable tines firmly in position during wash cycles. Compatible models also include Roper, Admiral, Maytag and other brands using the same rack design.
Owners needing a direct replacement clip
The part fits Whirlpool upper racks and listed compatible brands where the original clip has broken or gone missing. It is sold individually, so multiple clips require separate purchases. Buyers repairing lower racks or different rack configurations should verify the correct part number before ordering.
Simple snap-in installation
The clip pushes onto the rack wire and locks around the tine row without tools. Ensure the replacement matches the upper rack location, as lower rack clips differ. Misalignment can prevent the tines from adjusting smoothly or cause the clip to dislodge under water pressure.
