764-05082 Bagger Flex Hose 47" Length (Maximum Elongation) by 8" Wide Replacement MTD CUB RZT CADET Riding Mower Leaf Vac Hose Bagger 36" 42" 46" 50" 54" Rear Fast Double Bagger Kit 76405082

What It Is

The 764-05082 Bagger Flex Hose is a replacement vacuum hose for MTD, Cub Cadet, and RZT riding mowers with rear-discharge double bagger systems. It connects the mower deck to the bagger assembly, channeling grass clippings and leaves into the collection bags.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your mower’s deck size and bagger type. This hose fits 36", 42", 46", 50", and 54" rear-discharge decks on MTD, Cub Cadet, and RZT models that use a double bagger kit. Measure the original hose length at maximum stretch—this replacement is 47" long (fully extended) and 8" wide. Check your OEM part number; it replaces 764-05082 and cross-references to many MTD/Cub Cadet bagger hoses. Not compatible with side-discharge or universal baggers. If your mower has a single bagger or a different attachment style, it won’t work.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Made from flexible, ribbed plastic that resists kinking but can crack in extreme cold or if overstretched. Expect 1-3 seasons of use with regular mowing.
• Installation: Simple—remove the old hose and clamp onto the deck outlet and bagger inlet. No tools required beyond a flathead screwdriver for the clamps. Takes about 10 minutes.
• Common Gotcha: The 47" length is measured when fully extended. If your original hose is shorter or longer under normal tension, this may be too tight or too loose. Measure the distance between the deck and bagger ports with the bagger in place.
• Fitment Notes: Some users report the 8" width is slightly narrower than OEM on older models, requiring a zip tie or extra clamp for a snug seal. Check for debris buildup at the ends.

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible MTD, Cub Cadet, or RZT riding mower with a rear-discharge double bagger and need a direct replacement for a worn, cracked, or missing hose, this is a solid, affordable choice. It’s not a universal part, so double-check your deck size and bagger type. For the price and ease of installation, it’s a practical fix for restoring bagger performance.
