The Honda 91205-VB5-801 Oil Seal (17X26X6) is a genuine OEM component designed for HRA216, HRC215, and HRC216 lawn mowers. As an authentic Honda part, this seal is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a proper fit without modification. Verify your mower's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda introduces part supersessions at serial breaks that can affect which seal applies to your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM Seal — sourced directly from Honda, this oil seal meets the dimensional and material requirements of the original part it replaces, maintaining proper sealing performance in your mower
- Correct Variant for Your Application — the (17X26X6) designation identifies the specific size of this seal; confirm this matches your mower's requirement before purchasing
- Fits HRA216, HRC215, and HRC216 Lawn Mowers — listed for all three Honda walk-behind mower models, covering both residential and commercial applications in the HRC and HRA lines
- Serial Number Matters — Honda updates seals at production serial breaks, so cross-referencing your mower's serial number with the compatibility table ensures you receive the right part
- Stops Oil Leaks Before They Escalate — a worn or deteriorated oil seal allows oil to escape, leading to lubrication loss and potential damage to internal components; replacing it promptly keeps the mower running cleanly
An oil seal prevents lubricating oil from escaping rotating or reciprocating shaft passages in the mower's drivetrain. It does this by maintaining a tight, low-friction barrier around the shaft while blocking oil from migrating outward. When an oil seal wears, cracks, or loses its sealing lip, oil begins to leak from the shaft passage — a condition that can lead to inadequate lubrication, accelerated internal wear, and contamination of surrounding components. Replacing a failed seal with the correct-size genuine OEM part, such as this 17×26×6 mm unit, restores the integrity of the seal and prevents further oil loss.
