Description
Overview:
This Gear, Pinion (13T) is a genuine Honda drive component for HRN216 series lawn mowers, including HRN216 VKA and HRN216 VLA. Made from durable metal, it sits within the mower's drive system to transfer power smoothly and efficiently, helping to keep self-propulsion responsive and consistent under everyday mowing loads. The 13-tooth profile engages correctly with the mating gear to minimise slip and noise while maintaining steady motion. As an OEM part, it is built to Honda's specifications for fit and function, making it a dependable choice for routine maintenance or repair. Suitable for both professional users and home gardeners, it supports long service life when used with well-maintained belts, bearings and housings in the HRN216 drive assembly.
Key Features:
- Genuine Honda part for assured compatibility and performance
- 13-tooth pinion for accurate mesh with the mating gear
- Durable metal construction designed for repeated garden use
- Helps restore smooth, consistent self-drive and forward motion
- Precisely machined to reduce vibration and premature wear

Typical Applications:

Common in scheduled overhauls for HRN216 mowers used by landscapers, hire fleets and homeowners. Ideal when refurbishing the transmission section to maintain efficient power transfer and reliable traction across mixed lawn conditions.
