46-inch mulching blade for riding mowers and lawn tractors. Replaces worn, bent, or damaged blades. Finely cuts grass clippings for decomposition.

This part is the mulching blade. This mulching blade is designed to be used on riding lawnmowers and tractors. Mulching blades circulate the grass longer when clipping so that the clippings are smaller. These smaller grass clippings are perfect for mulching because their smaller size lends them to faster decomposing, which in turn puts the nutrients into the soil faster.A new mulching blade may be needed if the blade has been broken or damaged in any way. Mulching blades can be sharpened when they become dull, but it is recommended that they be replaced about approximately 100-200 hours of mowing time. Replacing mulching blades is an easier alternative to sharpening dull ones.This part is a genuine Husqvarna part and is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and it is sold individually. This mulching blade is compatible with riding lawn mowers and lawn tractors manufactured by either Husqvarna or Poulan.
