Product Overview

OEM Part Details OEM Part Number: 0428562 MPN: 0428562 SKU: 1003357 Part Type: Push-In Magnetic Door Gasket OEM Status: VERIFIED Product Overview A properly sealing door is a basic but important part of commercial refrigeration operation. OEM part 0428562 is a push-in magnetic door gasket used to create a seal between a refrigeration equipment door and the cabinet opening. When the door closes, the magnetic gasket helps hold the door against the frame while the gasket material compresses to limit warm-air entry and cold-air loss. Door gaskets are wear items that can lose compression, tear, pull away from the mounting channel, or become distorted over time. A damaged seal can allow moisture and outside air to enter around the door perimeter, which may contribute to frost, condensation, inconsistent cabinet conditions, and added strain on refrigeration operation. Replacing a worn gasket with the correctly identified part helps restore a cleaner door closure and supports normal cabinet sealing. This gasket should be selected by the verified OEM number, 0428562, and by comparison with the removed component. Review the push-in mounting style, magnetic sealing edge, gasket profile, door orientation, and the condition of the door channel before ordering. Correct identification is especially important because similar-looking gaskets can have different profiles or mounting arrangements.

Product Function

Product Function This magnetic door gasket forms the perimeter seal at a commercial refrigeration equipment door opening. Its flexible body compresses against the cabinet frame, while the magnetic portion helps keep the door aligned against the sealing surface when the door is shut. Together, these features help reduce air movement through the door opening. A sound gasket supports the door assembly rather than replacing the need for proper hinge, latch, and frame condition. If the gasket is torn, flattened, loose in its channel, or unable to meet the cabinet evenly, the door may not seal consistently. OEM part 0428562 is intended to replace the identified push-in magnetic gasket so the door assembly can maintain its intended sealing role.

Why Choose a Genuine OEM Replacement?

Why Choose a Genuine OEM Replacement? Using the verified OEM part number helps reduce uncertainty when replacing a worn door gasket. OEM number 0428562 provides a reliable reference for identifying this push-in magnetic gasket against the original component and applicable equipment documentation. Matching the correct part number and gasket profile can help avoid ordering a gasket with the wrong mounting edge, sealing shape, or door arrangement.

How This Part Works

How This Part Works As the refrigeration door closes, the gasket contacts the cabinet frame around the opening. The gasket material compresses where it meets the frame, creating a barrier at the door perimeter. Its magnetic section assists the door in staying against the sealing surface, provided the door, hinges, latch, and cabinet frame are in suitable condition. The push-in portion of the gasket seats in the door's gasket channel or retainer arrangement. That mounting edge keeps the gasket positioned around the door while the sealing face meets the cabinet. For consistent sealing, the gasket must sit evenly in the channel and the door must close squarely. A bent door, damaged retainer, loose hinge, or latch problem can affect closure even when the gasket itself appears intact. The gasket works as one part of the complete door assembly and should be evaluated with the surrounding hardware when seal concerns are present.

Technician Service Tip

Technician Service Tip Before replacing the gasket, compare the removed part with OEM number 0428562 and inspect the full door perimeter. Check that the gasket channel is clean and secure, then evaluate door alignment, hinge condition, and latch engagement. A new gasket may not seal evenly if the door sits out of position or the mounting channel is damaged.

Common Failure Symptoms

• Visible splits, tears, or punctures in the gasket material may indicate that the door seal should be inspected.
• A gasket that has pulled out of the push-in channel can indicate mounting-edge wear or a damaged door retainer.
• Flattened sections that no longer rebound against the cabinet frame may indicate lost gasket compression.
• Frost collecting near the door perimeter can indicate an opening in the door seal.
• Moisture or condensation around the cabinet opening may indicate warm air entering through an uneven gasket contact area.
• A door that requires unusual pressure to stay closed may indicate gasket distortion, hinge misalignment, or latch concerns.
• Sections of the gasket that remain folded, twisted, or misshapen after the door is closed should be inspected for sealing problems.
• An uneven gap between the door and cabinet frame may indicate that the gasket, hinges, latch, or door alignment needs attention.

Commercial Applications

Commercial Applications This push-in magnetic door gasket is identified for commercial refrigeration equipment door-sealing service. Door gaskets are commonly maintained by restaurant service teams, foodservice maintenance personnel, refrigeration contractors, and commercial kitchen repair providers when a cabinet door no longer seals evenly. The gasket's role is limited to the door assembly, but its condition can affect cabinet air leakage around the opening. Equipment use and exact fitment should be confirmed from the equipment data plate, the original removed gasket, and OEM part number 0428562. No specific equipment series or door dimensions are stated here. Confirming the correct gasket profile and mounting arrangement before purchase helps support an accurate replacement decision.

Before You Order

• Match OEM part number 0428562 to applicable equipment documentation or the original component.
• Compare the removed gasket's overall profile with the replacement part before ordering.
• Confirm that the original gasket uses a push-in mounting arrangement.
• Review the magnetic sealing edge and its position around the door perimeter.
• Check the equipment data plate and serial number for equipment identification.
• Inspect the door channel or retainer for damage, debris, or sections that may not hold the gasket securely.
• Evaluate door hinge alignment and latch engagement, since either can affect gasket contact.
• Confirm door orientation and the gasket's corner and perimeter layout against the original component.
• Compare available product imagery with the removed gasket, paying close attention to the mounting edge and sealing profile.

Related Components

• Door hinges should be inspected because loose, worn, or misaligned hinges can prevent the door from meeting the gasket evenly.
• Door latch components should be evaluated because weak or misadjusted latch engagement can leave gaps at the door seal.
• Door closer hardware should be checked where present, since incomplete door closure can mimic a gasket sealing concern.
• The gasket retainer or door channel should be inspected for damage or contamination that could prevent the push-in edge from seating securely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is OEM part 0428562?

OEM part 0428562 is a push-in magnetic door gasket for commercial refrigeration equipment door sealing.

What does a magnetic door gasket do?

A magnetic door gasket compresses against the cabinet frame and helps the door remain against the sealing surface when closed, reducing air leakage around the opening.

How should I identify the correct replacement gasket?

Match OEM number 0428562 when applicable, then compare the removed gasket's profile, push-in mounting edge, magnetic sealing edge, and door arrangement.

Can a door gasket cause frost or moisture near the door?

A torn, flattened, distorted, or poorly seated gasket may allow outside air to enter around the door perimeter, which can contribute to frost or moisture.

Should door hinges and latches be checked when replacing a gasket?

Yes. Hinge alignment, latch engagement, door closer condition, and the gasket channel can all affect whether a new gasket contacts the cabinet evenly.

Are dimensions provided for OEM part 0428562?

Dimensions are not provided here. Compare the original gasket and confirm the correct OEM part number before ordering.
