This is a 21-inch blade kit for Honda push mowers, designed to cut grass on residential lawns. It replaces OEM part numbers 72511-VE1-020 and 72531-VE2-020, commonly found on Honda HRB, HRM, HRR, HRS, HRT, and HRZ series mowers.
Fitment & Compatibility
- Deck size: Must be exactly 21 inches – measure your blade length before ordering. This kit fits 21-inch decks only.
- Models: Compatible with Honda HRB215, HRB216, HRB217, HRM215, HRR216, HRS216, HRT216, and HRZ216. Check your mower’s model number on the deck sticker.
- OEM vs aftermarket: This is a non-OEM blade. It’s a direct replacement for the two OEM part numbers listed, but expect slight differences in steel thickness or coating.
- Measurements: Blade length is 21 inches, center hole diameter is typically 1 inch, and mounting pattern matches Honda’s standard two-blade setup. Verify your mower uses a single bolt per blade (not a star or keyed pattern).
Key Things to Know
- Quality: At $24.99, these are budget blades. Expect average steel and a painted finish that may chip faster than OEM. Not for heavy-duty or commercial use.
- Installation difficulty: Easy – requires a socket wrench and blade removal tool. Torque bolts to 30-35 ft-lbs. Always disconnect the spark plug first.
- Common gotchas: Aftermarket blades may not be balanced out of the box. Check balance with a blade balancer before installing to avoid vibration. Also, ensure the blade orientation (sharp edge facing upward) matches your mower’s lift design.
- Durability: Expect 2-3 seasons of light use. Re-sharpening is possible but may reduce blade life due to thinner steel.
Should You Buy It
Buy this kit if you need a quick, inexpensive replacement for a Honda 21-inch push mower and don’t mind slightly lower durability than OEM. It’s a solid budget option for occasional mowing on small lawns. For heavy use or precise cutting, stick with OEM Honda blades.
