764-05082 Bagger Flex Hose for MTD CUB CADET Riding Mower 36" 42" 46" 50" 54" Rear Fast Double Bagger Kit 76405082

What It Is

The 764-05082 Bagger Flex Hose is the flexible discharge tube that connects your mower deck to the rear double bagger on MTD and Cub Cadet riding mowers. It’s designed for use with 36", 42", 46", 50", and 54" decks equipped with the OEM Rear Fast Double Bagger Kit.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Check your mower model: Fits most MTD-built Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, and Yard-Man riders with a rear bagger kit. Confirm your model is listed in the manufacturer’s compatibility chart.
• Deck size: Works with 36" to 54" decks, but only if the bagger kit is the Rear Fast Double Bagger (not single-bag or side-discharge systems).
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is an OEM Cub Cadet part (part #764-05082). Aftermarket hoses may differ in length or rigidity—measure your old hose’s length and inner diameter (typically 4" or 5") before buying.
• Measure the connection ends: Ensure the hose fits both the deck chute and the bagger inlet. If you have an older model, the mounting clamp may be a different size.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: The OEM hose is reinforced rubber—resists cracking from UV and heat better than cheaper aftermarket replacements.
• Installation difficulty: Easy—slip on, secure with clamps (included with some bagger kits, but not always). No tools beyond a screwdriver or socket for clamps.
• Common gotcha: The hose can kink if routed too tightly. Check that the bagger chute and hose path allow a gentle curve. A kink kills airflow and clogs the bagger.
• Durability: Expect 2-4 seasons depending on storage conditions. Store indoors to prevent sun damage.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a direct OEM replacement for your Cub Cadet or MTD rear bagger hose and want a reliable, no-guess fit. It’s also a good upgrade if your current hose is cracked or collapsing. Skip it if your bagger kit is a different brand or if you have a single-bag system—it won’t fit.
