Grasshopper Mower Anti-Scalp Deck Wheel, For Grasshopper 48-72 Inch Mower Decks, and TrimMaster Left and Right Roller Kits with Side Roller, OEM 484230

What It Is

This is an OEM anti-scalp deck wheel (part #484230) designed to prevent the mower deck from digging into turf during turns or over uneven ground. It’s compatible with Grasshopper 48–72 inch mower decks and also works with TrimMaster left and right roller kits that include a side roller.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Deck size: Fits Grasshopper mowers with 48, 52, 60, 61, 72, and 72XD inch decks. Not for decks under 48 inches.
• Model fit: Works with Grasshopper 700, 900, 1200, 1400, 1500, 6000, and 7000 series models. Also fits TrimMaster roller kits (left and right) that use a side roller.
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is OEM Grasshopper part 484230. Verify your existing wheel’s part number matches—some aftermarket wheels have different bearing sizes or offset.
• Measurements: Wheel diameter is about 6 inches; bolt pattern is a single 3/8-inch hole with a 5/8-inch bushing. Measure your mounting bolt and bushing before ordering.
• Check: Ensure your deck has the mounting bracket for anti-scalp wheels (some older or smaller decks may not). If you’re replacing a worn wheel, compare the bushing length and wheel thickness to avoid clearance issues.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: OEM build is durable—thick rubber tread and sealed bearing. Aftermarket copies often use softer rubber that wears faster.
• Installation: Simple bolt-on—remove the old wheel, slide the new one onto the bracket, and secure with the existing hardware. No special tools needed.
• Common gotcha: The bushing can seize to the bolt if not greased annually. Apply anti-seize or grease during install to extend life.
• Side roller note: If you’re using this with a TrimMaster side roller kit, confirm the kit includes the correct bracket—this wheel alone won’t mount without it.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own a Grasshopper 48–72 inch deck and need a direct, no-hassle replacement for a worn or missing anti-scalp wheel. It’s a solid OEM part at a fair price, and the 4.6-star rating reflects reliable performance. If your deck uses a different mounting system or you need a complete roller kit, look elsewhere.
