8TEN LawnRAZOR High-Lift Mower Blades for Ariens 00450200 — 3-Pack, 48" Fit, 16-1/8"

8TEN LawnRAZOR High-Lift mower blades are a 3-pack of OEM-compatible replacement blades designed to restore high-lift cutting and bagging performance on Ariens Max-Zoom 48 and 48HD zero-turn mowers.

When your mower's cutting edge becomes dull, bent, or unbalanced, swapping in fresh blades is the fastest way to regain even clipping, improved grass lift, and cleaner discharge. These LawnRAZOR blades match the Ariens OEM part number 00450200 and are built to the same key dimensions—16-1/8" length, 2-1/2" width, 5/8" center hole and 0.025" thickness—so they fit common 48" mower decks without extra modification. Sold as a three-pack, they make it simple to replace all blades at once for consistent performance across the deck.

What mower models will these 8TEN blades fit?

These blades are manufactured to be compatible with Ariens models that use OEM part 00450200. They suit 48" deck configurations commonly found on the Max-Zoom 48 and Max-Zoom 48HD zero-turn mowers. Confirming your current blade’s length and center hole is recommended before purchase.

• OEM compatibility: Ariens 00450200
• Typical fit: Ariens Max-Zoom 48 and Max-Zoom 48HD
• Deck size requirement: 48" mower decks
• Verify: 16-1/8" length and 5/8" center hole

How do these high-lift blades affect cutting and collection?

High-lift blades generate stronger upward airflow beneath the deck, lifting grass blades into a cleaner cutting plane and improving bagging efficiency. That airflow also helps move clippings to side discharge or collection systems more effectively, reducing clumping in wet or dense conditions.

• Higher suction for improved bagging
• Smoother, more consistent clippings
• Reduced need for multiple passes in thick turf
• Helps maintain even mulching and discharge flow

What are the exact dimensions and mounting details?

Each 8TEN LawnRAZOR blade matches the critical dimensions of the referenced Ariens part so installation is straightforward. The center hole diameter, blade thickness, and overall length ensure proper balance and clearance for most 48" decks that specify part 00450200.

• Blade length: 16 1/8 inches
• Blade width: 2 1/2 inches
• Center hole: 5/8 inch diameter
• Material thickness: 0.025 inch

How should I replace and maintain these blades?

Replace blades in matched sets to keep the deck balanced and avoid vibration. Sharpen as needed, inspect for bends or damage after striking objects, and torque mounting hardware to your mower manufacturer’s specification. Regular maintenance keeps cutting clean and extends blade life.

• Install all three blades together for balance
• Check for nicks, bends, and proper torque
• Sharpen periodically for optimal performance
• Replace immediately if warped or cracked
