What It Is

This air filter is a direct replacement for the Honda GXV160 engine, commonly found on HRC216 commercial mowers (models K1HA, K1SXA) and similar Honda walk-behinds. It traps dirt and debris before they enter the carburetor, protecting engine longevity in frequent or heavy-use mowing.

Fitment & Compatibility

Check three things before buying:

1. Engine model – Must be a Honda GXV160 (verify on engine shroud or valve cover). Not for GXV120, GXV140, or other Honda engines.
2. OEM part numbers – Cross-references 17211-ZE7-W03, 17211-ZE7-W02, 17211-ZE7-W01, 17210-Z1V-003, 17210-ZE7-013. If your current filter has any of these numbers, it fits.
3. Physical dimensions – Measures roughly 3.5" x 2.5" x 1.5". If your old filter matches those approximate dimensions, it’s correct. Not for round or cylindrical filter housings.

Does not fit non-Honda engines or older GXV160 models with a different air box design (pre-2000 or certain K1 series variants).

Key Things to Know

• Quality – Genuine Honda part; foam element is oiled from factory. Should last 25–50 hours of mowing depending on dust conditions.
• Installation – Tool-free removal. Press filter into housing, ensure rubber gasket seats fully. No adapter or modification needed.
• Common gotcha – The foam can compress slightly over time; replace if it feels brittle or fails to seal tightly against the housing. Don’t wash or reuse a worn filter.
• Rating context – 3.7 stars likely reflects price sensitivity (some expect a cheaper aftermarket part). For OEM fit and reliability, this is standard.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Honda HRC216 with a GXV160 engine and need a direct, no-guesswork replacement, this is the correct part. It’s a fair price for genuine Honda quality. If you’re on a tight budget, an aftermarket equivalent may work, but expect slightly shorter life or looser fit. For commercial use or peace of mind, stick with OEM.
