Youxmoto 30 inch Mulching Mover Blades Fit for 942-04385 742-04385, for Cub Cadet CC30 CC30H Craftsman R1000 RER1000 R1500 Troy Bilt TR30 TB30R with 30 Inch Cut Deck (2 Pack)

What It Is

This is a 2-pack of 30-inch mulching blades designed for select Cub Cadet, Craftsman, and Troy-Bilt lawn tractors with a 30-inch cutting deck. They replace OEM part numbers 942-04385 and 742-04385, intended for mulching grass clippings into fine particles to return nutrients to your lawn.

Fitment & Compatibility

Check your deck size first—these blades fit only 30-inch cut decks, not 42-inch or 46-inch models. Compatible models include Cub Cadet CC30, CC30H, Craftsman R1000, RER1000, R1500, and Troy-Bilt TR30, TB30R. Measure your existing blade length (should be 30 inches) and center hole diameter (typically 1-inch or 5/8-inch—the Youxmoto uses a 1-inch center hole). Verify your spindle pattern matches the blade’s two-hole design. If your OEM blade number is 942-04385 or 742-04385, these are direct aftermarket replacements. Not for zero-turn mowers or decks with different spindle configurations.

Key Things to Know

• Quality vs OEM: These are aftermarket steel blades. They may be slightly thinner or less balanced than OEM Cub Cadet blades. Check for warping out of the box.
• Installation: Requires a socket wrench and torque wrench (recommended torque: 70-80 ft-lbs). Use thread locker on spindle bolts. Blades are sharp—wear gloves.
• Mulching vs bagging: These are mulching blades—they have a curved, high-lift design. They will not work well for bagging or side-discharge unless you swap to standard blades.
• Common gotcha: The 2-pack is for one mower (two blades). Some decks use three blades—if yours has three, you need a different set. Always verify blade count.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own one of the listed Cub Cadet, Craftsman, or Troy-Bilt 30-inch deck models, want an affordable mulching blade upgrade, and are comfortable with basic installation. Skip it if you need OEM-grade durability for heavy commercial use, or if your deck uses a different blade pattern or size.
