Honda HRR216 Blade KIT, (1) 72531-VH7-000 Blade & (1) 72511-VL0-S00 Blade

What It Is

This is a genuine Honda blade kit for the HRR216 mower series, containing one 72531-VH7-000 blade (left/undervane) and one 72511-VL0-S00 blade (right). It’s designed for standard mulching and bagging use on 21-inch Honda self-propelled mowers.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Deck size: 21-inch cutting deck only.
• Models: HRR216K9, HRR216K8, HRR216K7, HRR216TDA, HRR216VKA, HRR216PKA, and other HRR216 variants (check your owner’s manual or deck sticker).
• OEM vs aftermarket: These are genuine Honda parts—no fitment guesswork. Aftermarket blades may differ in thickness, hole alignment, or lift angle.
• Measurement check: Each blade is roughly 21 inches long, with a 1-inch center hole and a 0.5-inch offset. Verify your current blade length and hole size before ordering.
• What to confirm: Look for the model number on the mower deck or under the rear discharge door. If you have a different HRR216 sub-model (e.g., HRR216SDA), double-check the parts diagram; some use a single-blade kit.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Factory-sharpened, heat-treated steel. Lasts longer than most aftermarket blades if you avoid rocks and roots.
• Installation difficulty: Easy—one bolt per blade. Use a torque wrench set to 30-35 ft-lbs. The blades are directional; the undervane blade (72531-VH7-000) goes on the left (when standing behind the mower).
• Common gotcha: These blades are not reversible—they have a single cutting edge. Replace when nicked or dull, not when chipped.
• Pairing: Always replace both blades at the same time to keep balance and cutting quality even.

Should You Buy It

Yes, if you own an HRR216 and want a drop-in, no-hassle replacement that maintains OEM performance. It’s the right choice for homeowners who value sharp cuts and reliable fit over saving a few dollars on generic blades.
