This is an all-metal replacement hub for Whirlpool-built top-load washing machines. It is made of ADC12 and zinc alloy. Traditional Whirlpool washing machine hubs can strip out when the gear shaft has been compromised. This hub is meant to replace them.
Whirlpool used similar hubs in older machines and removed them from factory installation on or around 2014, but continued selling them for legacy models. This hub is also forward-compatible with any unit that uses W10528947 hubs.
This is the Version 2 hub. It has additional tangs on the hub to hold the drive block better. The drive block is revised and thicker, so it tightens better onto the drive shaft. The hub splines that drive into the gearcase are deeper, which helps them grip a degraded drive shaft system.
