DETAILED DESCRIPTION 

The air cleaner element (air filter) is one of the most important periodic-service parts on any commuter bike—especially in Indian dust conditions. The Hero Genuine Element B, Air Cleaner – 17213KCC900LS is an OEM filter element listed by Hero for specific 100cc commuter platforms. It is commonly searched/asked at parts counters as “air filter”, “air filter element”, “air cleaner element”, “filter paper”, and in local terms as “air filter ka element / air filter ka paper” (mechanic language).

Using a genuine Hero element matters because correct filtration is not only about the material—it’s also about proper sealing inside the air box. Many look-alike local elements do not seat perfectly, allowing unfiltered air bypass. That can lead to faster wear, rough idling, reduced mileage consistency, and increased carbon deposits over time. Hero’s official description positions this element as a dust/dirt/soot trapping component intended to keep the engine protected.

As per Hero’s official model applicability, 17213KCC900LS is used on Splendor+, HF Deluxe, HF Dawn, Splendor NXG, and Passion Plus. Independent parts listings further show the part being used across older model-year entries (carb-era) within these families—so matching by part number is the correct way to avoid wrong fitment.

At underthehood.co.in, we dispatch genuine packed parts with safe packaging to protect the element from crushing in transit.
