Genuine OEM Wright Mower 17460018 Rubber Stripe Kit Fits Aero Core Deck

What It Is

This is a genuine OEM rubber stripe kit (part #17460018) designed for Wright Mower Aero Core decks. It attaches to the rear of the deck to create visible lawn stripes while mowing, giving a professional, alternating light/dark pattern.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower has an Aero Core deck—this kit will not fit standard Wright decks or other brands without modification. Check your deck’s model number (e.g., 48”, 52”, 60” Aero Core) and ensure the mounting brackets align with your deck’s rear edge. The kit includes rubber flaps, mounting hardware, and instructions. If your deck is older or has aftermarket parts, verify bolt hole spacing (typically 3/8” holes on 6” centers). Measure the deck’s rear lip thickness to ensure the provided U-bolts or clamps fit snugly.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Genuine OEM means exact fit, no trimming or drilling required—unlike generic strip kits. Rubber is durable and UV-resistant.
• Installation difficulty: Moderate—requires basic tools (wrench, drill if holes aren’t pre-drilled). Expect 30–45 minutes.
• Common gotchas: Some users report the rubber can curl in hot weather if not tightened evenly. Also, check that the kit doesn’t interfere with the discharge chute or bagger attachment.
• Performance: Best results on dry, established grass. Wet or thick grass may cause dragging or uneven stripes.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Wright Mower with an Aero Core deck and want factory-quality stripes without rigging a universal kit, this is a solid, reliable choice. It’s not for non-Wright decks or budget builds, but for exact fit and durability, it’s worth the premium.
