120-9500-03 116-6358-03 20120 20120P Timemaster 30 inch Mulching Blades for 30" Deck Toro 20199 20200 20975 20977 22205TE Ex Mark ECKA30 Lawn Mower (2 Pack)

What It Is

This is a 2-pack of mulching blades designed for 30-inch Toro Timemaster and Exmark ECKA30 mower decks. They turn grass clippings into fine particles for nutrient recycling, ideal for mulching without bagging.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower has a 30-inch deck and check the model number. These blades fit:

• Toro models: 20199, 20200, 20975, 20977, 22205TE (Timemaster series)
• Exmark model: ECKA30

Also verify OEM part cross-references: 120-9500-03, 116-6358-03, 20120, 20120P. These are aftermarket replacements for Toro originals. Measure your current blade length (should be approximately 30 inches) and spindle hole pattern (round center hole with offset pin holes). If your deck has a different spindle design, these won’t fit.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Aftermarket blades may be slightly thinner or less balanced than OEM Toro. Check for warping or burrs before installation.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty. You’ll need a socket wrench, torque wrench (recommended 60-80 ft-lbs), and patience with blade bolts. Always disconnect spark plug first.
• Gotcha: These blades are specifically for mulching, not bagging or side-discharge. Using them with a bagger can clog the chute.
• Maintenance: Sharpen after 10-15 hours of use or when you see ragged cuts. Replace if bent or chipped.

Should You Buy It

If you own a 30-inch Toro Timemaster or Exmark ECKA30 and primarily mulch clippings, this 2-pack offers solid value at $23.99. It’s a good budget alternative to OEM blades, but if you demand perfect balance or frequently bag, stick with factory parts.
