This is a 3-pack of mulching blades designed for 54-inch zero-turn and lawn tractor decks. They replace OEM part numbers 942-0677, 742-0677, and Toro 112-0931, and are intended for use on MTD, Cub Cadet, and Toro machines that require a high-lift mulching blade for fine grass clipping recycling.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, verify three things:
- Deck size: These blades fit only 54-inch cutting decks. Measure your deck width (blade tip to blade tip) to confirm.
- OEM cross-reference: Directly replace Toro 112-0931, MTD 942-0677, and Cub Cadet 742-0677. Check your current blade’s part number or look up your mower model on the manufacturer’s parts diagram.
- Physical dimensions: Each blade is approximately 20.5 inches long, with a 1-inch center hole and a 0.5-inch offset. Measure your existing blade length, center hole diameter, and offset to ensure match. These blades are not universal—they will not fit 42-inch, 46-inch, or 50-inch decks.
Compatible models include Toro TimeCutter, Cub Cadet RZT S54, GT1054, GT2300, LGT1054, LGTX1054, and similar 54-inch deck MTD units. If your mower uses a different blade pattern (e.g., oval hole or different offset), these will not work.
Key Things to Know
- Quality vs. OEM: These are aftermarket blades. They are typically 10–30% cheaper than OEM, but may not hold an edge as long or be as precisely balanced. Expect acceptable mulching performance for residential use.
- Installation difficulty: Moderate. You’ll need a socket wrench, torque wrench (set to 70–90 ft-lbs), and lock washers. Always lift the deck, disconnect the spark plug, and use a blade removal tool to prevent spinning.
- Common gotchas: The blades are sold as a set of three—do not mix with other blade types on the same deck. Mulching blades have a more curved design than standard blades; they will not discharge clippings well if you prefer side-discharge or bagging. Always check blade balance after installation; an unbalanced blade causes vibration and poor cut.
- Wear life: Expect about 25–50 hours of cutting time before sharpening, depending on grass type and debris. Replace sooner if you hit rocks or roots.
Should You Buy It
Buy this 3-pack if you have a 54-inch deck mower from Toro, Cub Cadet, or MTD and want a cost-effective mulching blade set for regular lawn maintenance. It’s a solid budget-friendly alternative to OEM for residential use, but skip it if you need premium edge retention, commercial-duty durability, or if your mower uses a different blade pattern.
