MaxPower 561310B 3 Blade Set for Many 52 in. Snapper Mowers Replaces OEM #'s 1737252BZ and 1737252

What It Is

The MaxPower 561310B is a three-blade set designed for 52-inch Snapper lawn mowers, replacing OEM part numbers 1737252BZ and 1737252. It’s intended for residential or light commercial use, providing a complete blade replacement for Snapper zero-turn and rider mowers with a 52-inch cutting deck.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, measure your existing blades to confirm: these blades are 16.75 inches long, 2.25 inches wide, with a 1-inch center hole and a 0.5-inch offset. They fit many 52-inch Snapper models (e.g., ZTR, RER, and LT series) that use three blades. Check your mower’s deck size (must be 52 inches) and verify that the OEM part numbers 1737252BZ or 1737252 are listed in your owner’s manual or on the old blades. This is an aftermarket set—not OEM Snapper—so confirm the blade mounting pattern (center hole and offset) matches your spindles. Avoid assuming all 52-inch Snapper decks use the same blades; some newer models may require different offsets or lengths.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Made from heat-treated steel with a hardened edge, but some users report slightly thinner material than OEM blades. Expect good durability for regular mowing, not heavy-duty use.
• Installation: Straightforward—remove old blades, install new ones with the correct orientation (sharp edge forward). Use a torque wrench to tighten to spec (typically 70-90 ft-lbs). No special tools needed beyond a socket set.
• Balance: Each blade is individually balanced, but check with a blade balancer after installation to avoid vibration that can damage spindles.
• Common Gotcha: The center hole and offset are critical—if your Snapper uses a different hole size (e.g., 7/8-inch) or offset, this set won’t fit. Measure your old blades before buying.

Should You Buy It

If you own a 52-inch Snapper mower that uses OEM blades 1737252BZ or 1737252, this set is a cost-effective alternative to OEM replacements. It’s a good choice for routine blade swaps on older or standard models, but skip it if you need exact OEM specs or have a newer Snapper deck with non-standard mounting.
