What It Is

This is an aftermarket grass catcher container bag designed for lawn tractors with 42-inch and 46-inch cutting decks. It replaces OEM part numbers 400226, 960730028, 966529103, and 960730019, and is intended for Husqvarna, Craftsman, Poulan, and AYP models like the G483ST, RZ30, and RZ3016.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, check your mower’s model number and deck size. This bag fits most 42-inch and 46-inch decks from Husqvarna, Craftsman, Poulan, and AYP, but it’s not universal—measure your existing bag’s mounting bracket spacing (typically 13–14 inches wide) and the bag’s depth (usually 18–20 inches). Confirm your mower uses a rear-mounted bagging system with a single container, not dual bags. For zero-turn models (RZ30, RZ3016), verify the bag’s hook or latch alignment matches your frame. If your OEM part number is one of the listed replacements, this will fit directly.

Key Things to Know

• Material quality: The bag is made of heavy-duty polyester fabric with a plastic frame. It’s durable for regular use but may not be as rigid as OEM bags over time.
• Installation difficulty: Easy—no tools required. Attach using existing hooks or straps on your mower. Expect 5–10 minutes for first-time setup.
• Common gotchas: The bag may sag when full, reducing capacity. Ensure your mower’s chute is clear of debris before attaching. Some users report the zipper can snag on grass clippings—lubricate it occasionally.
• Capacity: Holds about 6–8 bushels of clippings, depending on deck size and grass conditions. Not ideal for very wet or tall grass.

Should You Buy It

If you need a budget-friendly replacement for a worn-out OEM bag on a compatible Husqvarna, Craftsman, Poulan, or AYP tractor, this is a solid choice. It’s best for users with standard 42–46 inch decks who want easy installation and decent durability without paying OEM prices. For heavy-duty commercial use or zero-turn models with tight clearances, consider a stiffer OEM bag.
