This 2-pack of 38-inch mulching blades (model 942-0610A) is designed for select Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, MTD, Bolens, Huskee, Murray, and White Outdoor lawn tractors. The blades feature a curved design to recirculate clippings for finer mulching, reducing bagging needs.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, confirm your mower deck is exactly 38 inches (not 42 or 46). Check your current blade part number—this replaces OEM numbers 742-0610, 942-0610, 942-0610A, and 742-0610A. Fits models including LT3800, M115-38, L13, LT13, C76G, LT538G, and CLT38G. Measure your blade length (center hole to tip) to ensure it matches 38 inches. The center hole diameter is 1 inch, with a 5-point star drive pattern. Verify your spindle bolt size (typically 5/8-inch) matches.
Key Things to Know
- Quality: Made from heat-treated steel with a protective coating. Users report good balance out of the box, but always check with a blade balancer.
- Installation: Remove spark plug wire before lifting mower. Torque blade bolts to 70–90 ft-lbs. Use thread locker if bolts are worn.
- Mulching vs. Bagging: These blades are for mulching only—they will not discharge or bag well. If you need versatility, consider a 3-in-1 blade set.
- Common Gotcha: Some users find the blades slightly heavier than OEM, which may affect cutting performance on lower-horsepower tractors. Check clearance inside the deck before final tightening.
Should You Buy It
If you own a compatible 38-inch deck tractor and want dedicated mulching blades that reduce cleanup, this is a solid, affordable choice. For occasional mulching or mixed bagging/mulching use, look for a 3-in-1 alternative.
