will the weight of this stress the plastic inlet valves of a washing machine ?

I wouldn't think so because it's not heavy and it screws on pretty close to the machine. I think it would be different if it was heavy and mounted further away from the machine. I can't say for sure but I personally haven't run into any issues.

This thingy is not heavy enough to affect the plastic pipe of my washing machine.It works like a champ. The wife loves it !Hope this helps

I had that same concern. These water hammer arrestors are actually not heavy. In addition, if your water fill hoses do not have a 90 degree fitting on the end attached to the washer, installing the arrestors allows the water fill hoses to hang straight down, reducing stress on the plastic inlet fitting of the washing machine.

It's plastic and weighs a pound or less, but it works really well if you're careful how you load it.

I have a high capacity washing machine and one pac will do a large load beautifully. Not sure about the weight, but I have washed a full load of towels and other heavy items with great results.

It should be I use it with a 2600 psi washer and it's has not caused any damage.

I agree with JEB. if your concern is the strength of the flow, there is a valve to regulate it.

I don't have a bread machine, but is this problem any different from an uneven load of wash in the washer? If uneven, the washer"knocks" against the inside wash basin, so this means you have to distribute the weight evenly. :-)

Probably. They helped my front loading washer, it still vibrates but not nearly as bad as before. I used to have to sit on my washer on the spin cycle because it vibrated so bad. With the silent feet it still has vibration, but I feel I could leave the house while the washer is on and not worry.

Probably, If it has a 20mm threaded attachment at gun and the connection on the pressure washer itself, my experiance is that most due. Its certainly more than enough hose strength.

Not heavy at all, the water pressure is what adds weight. They do work very well.

While I wouldn't recommend testing it, I can say from experience that it can survive the washing machine with nothing reaching the internals as long as the cap is securely screwed on.

Yes no problembut its dependent on the water pressure supply it's attached to

I don't remember. I think there was a plastic washer that I took out, but I'm not sure. Our does seem to have good flow, so it does not feel like it is restricted.

Mine is plastic. Never had one come apart but I wouldn't think it'd hurt the washer. If there's particles, probably good to remove them. I'd imagine it's just cleaner though. I'd check into getting it replaced.

Make sure you include the weight of the WATER in the washer when it is full!

Probably, but it might be easier to just hose it off. I don't think it would hurt the washer but you would want to constrain the straps.

I guess it depends on your washer, but each side is easily a full load for me.

Yes, be careful when setting the washer in the slots. Mine was real heavy and we were off a bit and actually busted a piece of plastic where the feet mount. Still works great. the other 3 locked in very well.
