The Honda 23437-VB5-A00 Clutch Return Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for HR194, HR214, HR216, HRA214, HRA215, HRA216, HRC215, and HRC216 lawn mowers. Sourced directly from Honda, this part meets the same specifications as the spring installed at the factory. Because Honda supersedes parts at serial breaks, confirm your mower's serial number against the fitment table before ordering to ensure part number 23437-VB5-A00 is the correct application for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Tension Integrity — manufactured to Honda's original spring rate, ensuring the clutch mechanism disengages cleanly and returns consistently with each use.
- Direct Replacement — designed to drop into the clutch assembly of compatible Honda walk-behind mowers without modification, restoring the original engagement feel and travel.
- Broad Mower Compatibility — fits HR194, HR214, HR216, HRA214, HRA215, HRA216, HRC215, and HRC216 lawn mowers; verify your serial number against the fitment table to confirm the correct variant for your machine.
- Consistent Clutch Release — a fatigued or broken return spring can cause sluggish disengagement or prevent the clutch from fully releasing, placing extra load on the drive system and the operator.
The clutch return spring is responsible for pulling the clutch mechanism back to its disengaged position once the operator releases the drive bail or clutch lever. Without adequate spring tension, the clutch may drag, fail to disengage fully, or engage unpredictably, making the mower harder to control and accelerating wear on the drive components. Replacing a weak or broken spring with the correct Honda OEM part restores the crisp, positive clutch action the mower was designed to deliver.
