UDC Parts 742-05086 S-Shape Mower Blades Replacement for Cub Cadet 54 Inch ZTS2 742P05086 Craftsman CMXGZAM110194 Z5800 T3200 Z7600 TT440 Troy Bilt 490-110-C194 490-110-F194 ZT1 ZT2 / 3 Pack High Lift

What It Is

This is a 3-pack of S-shaped high-lift mower blades designed for 54-inch zero-turn mowers from Cub Cadet, Craftsman, and Troy Bilt. The S-shape improves grass lift and discharge, making them ideal for thick or wet grass conditions.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower has a 54-inch cutting deck. These blades replace OEM part numbers 742-05086, 742P05086, 490-110-C194, and 490-110-F194. They fit Cub Cadet ZTS2, ZT1, ZT2; Craftsman Z5800, T3200, Z7600, TT440; and Troy Bilt models with compatible decks. Measure your existing blade length (should be ~20 inches) and check the center hole diameter (typically 7/8-inch) and offset. Verify the blade shape matches your deck—S-shape is not universal for all 54-inch decks.

Key Things to Know

• Installation: Easy swap with a socket set and torque wrench. Tighten blade bolts to 70-80 ft-lbs. Use thread locker on bolts.
• Sharpness: Blades come sharp but may need a quick touch-up after first use on rocky terrain.
• Lift & Discharge: High-lift S-shape improves bagging and side discharge but may increase engine load and noise slightly.
• Aftermarket Note: UDC parts are aftermarket replacements. They fit well but may have slight finish differences from OEM. Check for balance before mounting.

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible 54-inch Cub Cadet, Craftsman, or Troy Bilt zero-turn and want a cost-effective, high-lift replacement that handles thick grass better than standard blades, this 3-pack is a solid buy. It’s not for decks under 54 inches or for brands outside the listed fitment.
