This baffle is a genuine MTD part. It is made for use with walk-behind and self-propelled lawnmowers.

These clippings can either be disposed of, composted, or used as fertilizer.This mulching baffle is a genuine OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and is sold individually. Most mowers have more than one baffle, so be sure to check if others also need to be replaced.This baffle is manufactured for compatibility with lawnmowers made by Bolens, Columbia, MTD Pro, White Outdoor, Yard Machines, and Yard-Man. Some of these models are electric mowers, while others are gas-powered. It is also compatible with some stand-alone mulching kits. Use the compatibility checker before purchasing.
