3PK USA Mower Blade for 52" Ferris 21227S 481711 Scag 482462 482878 48108 Encore 481707

What It Is

This is a 3-pack of USA-made, 52-inch deck mower blades designed for residential and commercial zero-turn mowers from Ferris, Scag, and Encore. They replace OEM part numbers 21227S, 481711, 482462, 482878, 48108, and 481707.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your deck size is exactly 52 inches (not 48", 54", or 61"). These blades fit select Ferris IS series (e.g., IS2000, IS2100), Scag Turf Tiger, Cheetah, and Patriot models with 52" decks, plus Encore Prowler and Pro-Flex models. Measure your existing blade length, center hole diameter (typically 1"), and thickness (approx. 0.25"). These are aftermarket replacements, not OEM, but match the exact dimensions of listed OEM numbers. Double-check your mower’s blade spindle pattern—most use a 5-point star or 2-hole center.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Made in USA from heat-treated steel, with a hard edge coating for durability. Expect longer edge life than many budget imports.
• Installation: Direct bolt-on for compatible decks—no drilling or modification needed. Use a torque wrench to tighten spindle nuts to manufacturer specs (usually 70-90 ft-lbs).
• Gotcha: These are standard lift blades, not high-lift or mulching. They work well for bagging or side-discharge but may not provide optimal clumping in thick grass.
• Balance: Each blade is individually balanced, but it’s wise to check balance on your own before installing to avoid vibration.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Ferris, Scag, or Encore with a 52" deck and need reliable, USA-made replacement blades that match OEM specs, this 3-pack offers good value. It’s ideal for homeowners or light commercial users who want consistent cut quality without paying OEM prices. Skip it if you require high-lift or mulching blades for heavy wet grass.
