  • AVOID MISTAKES: This 942-0741A blade is ONLY compatible with a Bow Tie spindle. Please check that your center hole pattern matches before purchasing to avoid installation issues.
  • BLADE SPECIFICATION: Length: 21"(533mm), Width: 2-1/4"(57mm), Thickness: 9/64"(3.4mm), Center Hole Shape: Bow Tie, For Deck Size: 21", Lift: 1-1/8"(28mm), Mower Blade Type: Mulching Blade.
  • FIT TOUGH MOWING TASKS: The blade is very suitable for cutting overgrown weeds or clearing rugged terrain. You can sharpen the blade if you want to maintain a neat, even cut for normal lawns. The cutting edges are painted to prevent rust and protect your hands during installation. The paint will wear off as you mow the grass.
  • 3-IN-1 BLADE: Serves 3 purposes (mulching, bagging, and side discharging) at the same time. Featuring numerous curves that cuts and re-cuts grass to smaller pieces, and recycles them back into the soil as nutrients to promote healthy lawn growth. Additionally, its high-lift increases the bagging capacity by 50%.
  • LOWER CLOGGING RISK: Strong airflow and finely shredded grass can reduce clogging around the blade and improve mowing efficiency.
  • ENSURE SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE: we conduct a series of rigorous tests, including the Rockwell Hardness Test, V-bend Test, Blade Chip Test, Balance Test, Performance Test, and Field Test.
