The ROP Shop OEM Toro Blade KIT 2 Blade Set for TimeCutter SS4216 SS4200 SS4235 SS4260 Mower

What It Is

This is a two-blade replacement set designed for select Toro TimeCutter zero-turn mowers. It’s meant for routine blade swaps to maintain clean cutting on residential or commercial lawns.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower model matches one of these: TimeCutter SS4216, SS4200, SS4235, or SS4260. Each has a 42-inch deck. The blades are OEM-equivalent, not genuine Toro, so check the original blade part number (usually 131-8682 or similar stamped on the blade). Measure your existing blades: these are 21.5 inches long, 2.5 inches wide, with a 1-inch center hole and 0.25-inch thickness. If your deck uses a different bolt pattern or offset, they won’t fit. Also verify you need a set of two, not a single blade.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Made from hardened steel with a coated finish to resist rust. Edges are sharp out of the box but may require light honing for optimal performance.
• Installation: Straightforward with basic hand tools (socket wrench, torque wrench). Torque bolts to 70-90 ft-lbs. Ensure blades are oriented with the cutting edge facing the direction of rotation (usually counterclockwise when viewed from above).
• Gotcha: These blades are not for 50-inch or 60-inch TimeCutter decks. Double-check your deck size—some SS models share numbers but have different deck widths.
• Balance: Each blade is individually balanced, but it’s wise to check both for wobble before mounting to prevent vibration.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own a 42-inch TimeCutter model listed above and want a cost-effective OEM-equivalent replacement that delivers solid cutting performance without the premium of genuine Toro blades. Avoid if you need blades for a different deck size or prefer factory-branded parts for warranty or fitment certainty.
