MaxPower 561145XB 3 Commercial Mulching Blades for 52-inch Hustler Mowers — Replaces OEM 30227-52X, 785436, 51-2220

Upgrade your Hustler deck with MaxPower 561145XB mulching blades

MaxPower’s 561145XB kit delivers three commercial-grade mulching blades designed for 52-inch Hustler mowers. Each blade measures 17-7/8 inches long by 2.5 inches wide, with a center hole of 5/8 inch. This precise sizing helps ensure a secure fit when you replace the OEM blades listed as 30227-52X, 785436, or 51-2220. Always verify compatibility by checking your owner’s manual or the blade’s OEM stamping before installing.

The blades are engineered to maximize the mulching surface so more material is processed per pass. Sharpened cutting teeth are designed to provide a clean, consistent cut and help manage clippings more evenly across the cutting width. The centrifugal air lift design helps push clippings toward the deck edge, promoting uniform distribution rather than bunching or clogging in the deck chamber. This can translate to fewer interruptions during mowing and more time spent on trimming and finishing work.
