HQPASFY 72511-VR8-M00 & 72531-VR8-M00 Mower Blade Kit Compatible with Honda 21'' Cut Lawn Mower HRN216, Contains 1x Air Filter, 1 x Spark Plug

What It Is

This is a blade kit for Honda HRN216 21-inch walk-behind mowers, bundled with a compatible air filter and spark plug for a complete tune-up.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Deck size: Confirmed for Honda 21-inch decks only.
• Models: HRN216 (all sub-models, e.g., HRN216VKA, HRN216VLA).
• OEM parts: Replaces Honda blades 72511-VR8-M00 (left) and 72531-VR8-M00 (right). The filter and plug are generic aftermarket equivalents, not Honda OEM.
• Check before buying: Measure your current blade length (21 inches from tip to tip) and ensure your deck uses a two-blade, staggered setup. Verify the center hole diameter (typically 1 inch) and the blade thickness (0.17–0.19 inches). If your mower is an older HRN or another model, cross-reference the blade part numbers with your owner’s manual.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Blades are likely aftermarket steel – check for balanced weight and sharpness out of the box. Some users report needing to sharpen or balance before first use.
• Installation: Standard DIY job – remove spark plug wire, flip mower, remove old blades, install new ones with the correct orientation (cutting edge facing forward). Torque to 30–40 ft-lbs.
• Gotchas: The included air filter and spark plug may not match Honda OEM specs exactly – compare to your current filter’s dimensions and plug gap (0.028–0.031 in). The plug may need gapping adjustment.
• Bundle value: Priced around $39, it’s cheaper than buying OEM parts separately, but the aftermarket filter/plug may reduce longevity or performance.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own an HRN216 and want a budget-friendly one-stop tune-up kit. It’s fine for routine blade replacement and basic maintenance, but skip it if you insist on OEM parts for maximum durability or if your mower isn’t an HRN216. For occasional homeowners, it’s a decent value; for pros or heavy users, invest in genuine Honda blades and a quality spark plug separately.
