00619985 / 619985 Dishwasher Countertop Bracket with Screws - Pack of 2

Key Features

• Heavy-Duty Galvanized Steel: Manufactured from premium, corrosion-resistant galvanized steel designed to provide a lifetime of structural stability in the high-humidity environment of a modern kitchen.
• Precision Alignment Slots: Features multiple pre-drilled mounting holes and adjustment slots, allowing for a custom, level fit between the dishwasher tub and various countertop materials (wood, laminate, or solid surface).
• Anti-Vibration Stabilization: Specifically engineered to anchor the top of the dishwasher tub to the underside of the countertop or side cabinetry, eliminating "tipping" when the heavy lower rack is pulled forward.
• Universal Bosch Interface: Designed with a standardized "hook-and-tab" system that snaps securely into the pre-cut slots on the top of the Bosch dishwasher tub frame for a tool-free initial seat.
• Complete Installation Set: This value pack includes two high-strength brackets and the necessary mounting screws, providing a complete solution for a secure, professional-grade installation.

Compatibility & Fitment

This mounting bracket is the standard installation hardware for most Bosch-manufactured 24-inch dishwashers. Key compatible brands include:

• Bosch: Fits hundreds of SHX, SHE, SHP, and SHI series models (e.g., SHE43P15UC, SHX68T55UC, SHP65TL5UC).
• Thermador & Gaggenau: Compatible with various high-end DWHD and DF series luxury units utilizing the 00619985 bracket style.
• Kenmore (107 & 103 Series): Fits dozens of models manufactured by Bosch for Sears (e.g., 107.14352101).
• Note: Specifically for Under-Counter Mounting. If you have a granite, quartz, or stone countertop, you may need the 00630696 Side Mount Kit instead to avoid drilling into the stone.

When to Replace

• Dishwasher Tipping Forward: The unit leans forward or pulls away from the cabinet when you open the door or pull out the loaded lower rack.
• Visible Metal Fatigue: The original brackets look bent, rusted, or have snapped at the stress points due to years of use.
• Missing Screws: The brackets are loose because the mounting screws have stripped the wood or fallen out, leaving the dishwasher unanchored.
• New Countertop Installation: If you are replacing your kitchen counters, the old brackets are often damaged during removal and should be replaced for a secure fit.
• Excessive Vibrating/Noisy Cycle: If the brackets are loose, the dishwasher tub will rattle against the cabinets during the high-speed wash or drain phases.

Installation Tips

• Safety First: Ensure the dishwasher is off. You do not need to unplug the unit, but you will need to slide it 2-3 inches out from the cabinet to access the top slots.
• Snap and Bend: Insert the bracket's "tab" into the slot on the top of the dishwasher tub. Use a pair of pliers to bend the tab slightly, locking the bracket permanently to the tub frame.
• Level the Unit: Before screwing the brackets into the countertop, use a spirit level to ensure the dishwasher is perfectly vertical and horizontal. This prevents drainage issues and door leaks.
• Drill Pilot Holes: If you are mounting into a wooden countertop or cabinet face, drill small pilot holes for the screws first. This prevents the wood from splitting and ensures a tight, permanent grip.
• Granite Alternative: If you have Granite or Stone counters, do not drill into the stone! Use these brackets to anchor the dishwasher to the Side Cabinets instead (if the model allows) or use a specialized stone adhesive kit.
