GICOOL 48 Inch Mower Blades for Husqvarna Z248F YTH24V48 YTH24K48 YTA24V48 Craftsman CMXGZAM110149 Z4824, Replace OEM 532180054 180054 173920 YTH2348 YTH2148 Z248 YTH2448

What It Is

A set of three 48-inch mower blades designed for zero-turn and lawn tractors with 48-inch cutting decks, commonly used on Husqvarna and Craftsman models. These are aftermarket replacements for OEM part numbers 532180054, 180054, and 173920.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower’s deck size is exactly 48 inches—this blade set will not fit 42-inch or 54-inch decks. Compatible with Husqvarna Z248F, YTH24V48, YTH24K48, YTA24V48, YTH2348, YTH2148, and Craftsman CMXGZAM110149, Z4824. Also fits Z248 and YTH2448 models. These replace OEM 532180054 (also 180054) and 173920 blades. Measure your existing blade length (48 inches overall) and center hole diameter (usually 1 inch) to verify fit. Aftermarket blades may have slightly different thickness or sharpening profile—check that the blade end-to-end length matches exactly.

Key Things to Know

• Installation: Moderate difficulty. You’ll need a socket wrench and blade removal tool. Always disconnect the spark plug and tip the mower with the carburetor side up to prevent oil leaks.
• Quality: 4.8 rating from 8 reviews suggests good sharpness and balance out of the box, but aftermarket blades can dull faster than OEM—expect to sharpen or replace after 10–15 hours of heavy use.
• Common gotchas: These are 3-blade sets; some older 48-inch decks use 2 blades. Verify your deck design. Also, aftermarket blades may require slight balancing—use a blade balancer to prevent vibration that can damage the spindle.
• Price vs OEM: At $23.19, these are significantly cheaper than OEM sets (often $40+), making them a solid budget option for frequent replacements.

Should You Buy It

Buy these if you have a Husqvarna or Craftsman 48-inch deck and want an affordable, well-rated replacement for worn or damaged OEM blades. They’re a smart choice for regular mulching or bagging on non-commercial lawns where sharpness longevity is less critical. Avoid if you need premium cutting performance for thick, wet grass or if your deck requires exact OEM balance for zero vibration.
