Toro Part # 115-5062-03 Mulching Blade

What It Is

The Toro 115-5062-03 is a genuine OEM mulching blade designed for select Toro lawn mowers. It uses a curved, multi-surface cutting edge to recirculate grass clippings for fine mulching, reducing bagging needs and returning nutrients to the lawn.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Deck size: Fits 22-inch decks. Measure your blade length—this one is approximately 22 inches end to end.
• Model fit: Compatible with Toro Recycler models (e.g., 20334, 20339, 20340, 20341) and select Super Recycler units. Check your mower’s model number against Toro’s official compatibility list.
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is an OEM part. Aftermarket blades may cost less but often lack the exact air-lift geometry for proper mulching.
• Measurements: Center hole diameter is 1 inch; blade thickness is 0.165 inches. Confirm these match your current blade before ordering.

Key Things to Know

• Installation difficulty: Moderate. You’ll need a socket wrench and a blade removal tool (or a block of wood to jam the blade). Torque bolts to 45-50 ft-lbs—over-tightening can strip the adapter.
• Mulching performance: Works best with dry, short grass (under 3 inches). Wet or tall grass will clump and leave piles.
• Sharpening: Can be sharpened 2-3 times, but replace when the blade tip is worn more than 1/4 inch or if it’s bent.
• Common gotcha: This blade is not for side-discharge or bagging-only decks. If your mower has a rear bagger, you may need a different blade.

Should You Buy It

Buy this blade if you own a compatible Toro Recycler or Super Recycler mower and prioritize fine, even mulching with minimal clippings left on the lawn. It’s a reliable OEM choice for homeowners who want consistent performance without aftermarket guesswork. Skip it if you need a universal blade or have a different deck size.
