60" Deck Mower Blades Fit for Exmark Lazer Z AC AS LC XP XS Hustler Super Z ATZ Lawn Mower Replaces OEM 116-5173-S 103-6338 103-6338-S Hustler 794230 (Toothed) 3 Pack

What It Is

This is a 3-pack of toothed (high-lift) 60-inch deck mower blades designed for commercial zero-turn mowers, specifically Exmark Lazer Z models (AC, AS, LC, XP, XS) and Hustler Super Z/ATZ models. They replace OEM Exmark 116-5173-S, 103-6338, 103-6338-S, and Hustler 794230.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower has a 60-inch deck (not 48", 52", or 72"). Check your deck’s blade length, width, and center hole diameter. These blades measure 20.5" long, 2.75" wide, 0.25" thick with a 5/8" center hole and a 1/4" offset. They are not compatible with older Exmark Lazer Z models (pre-2000s) or Hustler FasTrak/Fleet/Fairway decks. Always cross-reference your OEM part number against 116-5173-S, 103-6338, 103-6338-S, or Hustler 794230. If your deck uses a different spindle or blade shape (e.g., flat or low-lift), these will not fit.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Aftermarket blades at this price are typically stamped steel, not forged. Check for balanced sets—unbalanced blades cause vibration and spindle wear.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty. You’ll need a socket wrench, torque wrench (set to 70-90 ft-lbs), and a blade removal tool or block of wood to prevent spinning. Always use new lock washers.
• Common Gotchas: The toothed (serrated) design is aggressive for bagging but dulls faster on sandy or rocky lawns. If you mulch, these may leave clumps—consider gator-style blades instead.
• Lift/Discharge: High-lift design improves grass clipping discharge and bagging but increases power draw and wear on belts. Not ideal for wet grass.

Should You Buy It

Buy these if you own a compatible Exmark or Hustler zero-turn with a 60" deck, need a budget-friendly 3-pack for seasonal replacement, and prioritize bagging or clean discharge over mulching. Skip them if you need forged blades for heavy commercial use, have a different deck size, or prefer low-lift blades for dry, sandy conditions.
