MAXPRO Mower Mulching Blade Compatible with Honda Model HRR2169 K9#HRR2169VLA HRR2169VYA HRR2169VKA HRR2169PKA Replaces (Serial Number Range: 8670001 and up (72531-VH7-000)

What It Is

This is a replacement mulching blade for select Honda HRR2169-series walk-behind mowers. It’s designed to cut grass into fine clippings that decompose quickly, eliminating the need for bagging.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower’s model number (e.g., HRR2169VLA, HRR2169VYA) and serial number: this blade fits units with serial number 8670001 and up (OEM part #72531-VH7-000). It is not compatible with older HRR2169 mowers below that serial range. Measure your current blade’s length—this blade is 21 inches long with a 3.125-inch center hole and a 0.187-inch thickness. It replaces OEM Honda part 72531-VH7-000 and is an aftermarket alternative (MAXPRO brand), not genuine Honda. If your mower uses a different blade shape or mounting pattern, it won’t fit.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Customer-rated 4.4/5 (250 reviews). Users report good mulching performance and durability, but some note it’s slightly thinner than OEM Honda blades.
• Installation: Easy—remove the old blade, clean the spindle, and bolt this one on. Use a torque wrench to tighten to 30–40 ft-lbs. Always disconnect the spark plug first.
• Gotchas: This blade is for mulching only—it won’t bag or side-discharge well. Check blade balance after installation; some users had to balance it with a file or sharpener.
• Serial number critical: If your mower’s serial is below 8670001, this blade will not fit. Verify on the mower’s data plate (under the rear flap or near the engine).

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible Honda HRR2169 (serial 8670001+) and want an affordable mulching blade that performs well for regular lawn care, this is a solid choice. It’s not OEM, but it matches specs and saves money. Avoid if you need bagging or have an older model.
