Samsung DA97-17285A Refrigerator Ice Bucket and Auger

The Samsung DA97-17285A is a genuine OEM refrigerator ice bucket and auger assembly designed for select Samsung French door refrigerator models. The ice bucket serves as the storage container that holds ice produced by the ice maker, while the integrated auger is the spiral mechanism that rotates to push ice toward the dispenser chute when the user activates the door-mounted dispenser. Over time, the auger can wear down or the bucket can crack, leading to jammed dispensers, inconsistent ice delivery, or ice clumping — this complete assembly addresses all of those failure points in a single replacement.

This part carries the Samsung production number DA63-08764A and is confirmed compatible with models RF23M8070SG/AA-00, RF23M8570SG/AA-00, RF23M8070SR/AA-00, and RF23M8570SR/AA-00. It ships brand new and unused in Samsung's original packaging, and has been quality tested to the manufacturer's performance standards. Because the bucket and auger are supplied as a pre-assembled unit, installation is more straightforward than replacing individual components, though owners should consult their refrigerator's service documentation for model-specific removal and installation steps.
