Refrigerator Door Gasket
This is the direct replacement for the ripped component. Over time, the vinyl material loses its plasticizers, becoming brittle and prone to tearing during the suction-release cycle of opening the door. Replacing the gasket restores the vacuum seal and prevents moisture infiltration.

Refrigerator Door Mullion (Flipper Assembly)
On French door models like the WRF560SEHZ, the center flipper mullion must retract correctly when the door opens. If the internal spring fails or the guide pin is damaged, the mullion can snag the gasket upon closing, leading to the specific 'rip' reported by the user.

Food Grade Silicone Lubricant
Applying a thin film of food-grade silicone to the hinge side of the gasket reduces friction and 'stiction' between the gasket and the fridge cabinet. This prevents the gasket from stretching and eventually tearing during high-frequency usage.
