What It Is

This is a 3-pack of notched high-lift blades from LawnRAZOR, designed for Scag Cheetah and Turf Tiger zero-turn mowers with a 72-inch deck. The high-lift design increases airflow for better grass clipping discharge, making it ideal for bagging or side-discharge mowing in thick or wet grass.

Fitment & Compatibility

  • Deck size: 72-inch Scag decks only. Will not fit smaller decks (e.g., 61" or 48").
  • Models: Scag Cheetah (all years) and Turf Tiger (all years) with 72" deck.
  • OEM replacements: Replaces Scag part numbers 482882 and 482788 (notched high-lift).
  • Measurements: Blade length is 24.5 inches, center hole diameter 5/8", and thickness 0.203". Measure your existing blade to confirm—especially center hole and length—before ordering.
  • Notched design: These have a notch near the blade tip. Check that your deck uses notched blades (some Scag decks use non-notched). If unsure, compare against your current blade.

Key Things to Know

  • Build quality: LawnRAZOR blades are made from heat-treated boron steel—comparable to OEM Scag blades in durability. Sharp out of the box.
  • Installation: Direct bolt-on replacement. Use a torque wrench to tighten blade bolts to 70-90 ft-lbs (Scag spec). Reuse your existing blade washers and bolts.
  • Common gotcha: These are high-lift blades, which create more lift and noise than standard or medium-lift blades. Expect slightly louder operation and higher power draw—fine for most engines but check your belt and spindle health.
  • Pack contents: You get three blades (one per spindle). No hardware included.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Scag Cheetah or Turf Tiger with a 72" deck and need reliable, aggressive bagging or side-discharge performance, this is a solid value at $48.95 for a 3-pack. It’s a direct replacement for OEM blades at half the price, with no sacrifice in cut quality. Avoid if you prefer standard-lift blades for mulching or dry conditions—high-lift can scatter clippings.
