What It Is

This is a set of two aftermarket mulching blades designed for 42-inch cutting decks on Murray and Rover lawn tractors. They replace OEM part numbers 095100E701 and similar, intended for users who want finer clippings for lawn feeding rather than side discharge or bagging.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Deck size: Only for 42-inch (107 cm) decks. Measure your deck’s cutting width to confirm.
• OEM cross-reference: Fits Murray parts 095100E701, 095100E701MA, 495100, 4951003, 4951003MA, 495100MA, 5539, 5539MA, 7769203, 95100, 95100E701, and Rover 095100E701.
• Physical specs: Each blade is approximately 21 inches long (verify your current blade length), with a 1-inch center hole and a 7-point star drive pattern. Confirm your spindle’s drive shape matches—star vs. oval vs. round.
• Check your model: List includes many Murray and Rover tractors from the 1990s–2000s. If your model isn’t listed, measure your old blade length, center hole diameter, and drive pattern.

Key Things to Know

• Mulching vs. standard: These have a curved, wing-like design to recirculate clippings. They won’t work well for bagging or side discharge unless you change deck plugs.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty. You’ll need a torque wrench (tighten to 70–90 ft-lbs) and a blade removal tool. Left-hand threads are common on some spindles—check before forcing.
• Aftermarket quality: OCPTY is a budget brand. Some users report slight balance issues—check blade balance before installing to avoid vibration.
• Sharpness: Blades come sharp but may dull faster than OEM steel. Plan to sharpen every 10–15 hours of use.

Should You Buy It

Yes, if you need an affordable two-pack for a 42-inch Murray or Rover mulching setup and don’t mind checking balance at install. Skip it if you require exact OEM fit, heavy-duty durability, or plan to use the blades for bagging.
