This is a 3-pack of high-lift lawn mower blades designed to increase airflow and suction under the deck, improving grass clipping discharge and bagging performance. It’s intended for 50-inch cutting decks on select Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, and Craftsman models.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, confirm your mower has a 50-inch deck (not 46 or 54 inch). These blades replace OEM part numbers 742P05094, 490-110-C193, and CMXGZAM110193. Compatible models include:
- Cub Cadet Enduro XT1-LT50, Ultima ZT1-50, ZT2-50
- Troy-Bilt and Craftsman models using those OEM numbers
Measure your existing blade: length should be 20.5 inches, center hole diameter 1 inch, and width 2.5 inches. Check your spindle pattern—these use a 5-point star center hole, not a round or oval. If your spindle is a different pattern, these won’t fit.
Key Things to Know
- High lift = better bagging, but more power needed. These blades create more drag; your engine must be at least 18-20 HP to avoid bogging in thick grass.
- Installation is straightforward if you have a torque wrench (tighten to 45-55 ft-lbs). Use a blade removal tool or wedge to lock the spindle.
- Check blade balance before installing. Aftermarket sets sometimes ship slightly unbalanced—use a simple nail-in-wall balance test.
- Not for mulching. High-lift blades throw clippings out the chute or into a bag; they’re poor at cutting clippings fine enough for mulching.
Should You Buy It
If you have a compatible 50-inch Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, or Craftsman mower and want improved bagging or discharge performance without paying OEM prices, this 3-pack is a solid value. Skip it if you mainly mulch or have a smaller engine that struggles with high-lift blades.
