This is a pair of replacement grass catcher bags designed for select Husqvarna and Craftsman lawn tractors and zero-turn mowers, intended to replace worn or torn OEM part numbers 532400226 and 400226. They allow you to collect grass clippings, leaves, and debris during mowing, keeping your lawn clean without raking.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, confirm these three things:
- Deck size & model: These bags fit mowers with 42-inch, 46-inch, or 54-inch cutting decks. They are not universal—verify your mower’s model number against the OEM part number (532400226 or 400226) in your owner’s manual or on the original bag’s tag.
- Brand & series: Compatible with many Husqvarna (e.g., YTH, LTH, GTH, Z-series) and Craftsman (e.g., T110, T1200, 917-series) riders and zero-turns. Check the seller’s fitment list or use the OEM part number as your cross-reference.
- Measurements: Each bag is roughly 24” x 13” x 12” (L x W x H). Measure your existing bag or the mounting bracket to ensure the hooks and top opening align. Aftermarket bags may have slightly different dimensions—measure twice.
Pro tip: If your mower uses a separate bagger frame (e.g., Husqvarna Bagger Kit 532400226), these bags will slide into that frame. If you’re missing the frame, you’ll need it separately.
Key Things to Know
- Quality: Made from heavy-duty woven polypropylene with a reinforced bottom. Users report they last 2–3 seasons under regular use, but UV exposure can weaken the fabric over time. Store indoors when not in use.
- Installation: Straightforward—remove old bags, slide these onto the bagger frame hooks, and secure the top straps. No tools required. Expect 5–10 minutes for both.
- Common gotchas: The bags may be slightly stiffer than OEM when new, making them harder to collapse for storage. Also, check that the top opening’s plastic lip aligns with your mower’s discharge chute—some users needed to trim the lip slightly for a snug fit.
- Capacity: Each bag holds about 2–3 bushels (roughly 60–70 lbs of wet grass). Overfilling will cause clogging at the chute; empty when half-full for best airflow.
Should You Buy It
If you own a compatible Husqvarna or Craftsman mower with a 42–54” deck and need a direct, cost-effective replacement for worn OEM bags, this pair is a solid choice. It’s easier than repairing old bags and cheaper than buying originals. Skip it if your mower uses a different bagger system (e.g., a universal or off-brand frame) or if you need a single bag only.
