budrash 48-inch Deck Mower Blades 3-Pack — High-Lift Black Steel with 5-Point Star Fit

These are budrash high-lift replacement mower blades (48" deck) — a 3-pack designed to fit Husqvarna, Poulan and many 48-inch riding mower models and restore strong lift and clean discharge.

If your riding mower with a 48-inch deck is leaving uneven cut, poor bagging performance, or clippings piled under the deck, installing the correct high-lift blades can make a noticeable difference. The budrash 48" blade set (part 180054 and compatible numbers listed) is made from heavy-gauge steel with a black protective finish and a 5-point star center hole to match common OEM mounting patterns. Each blade measures approximately 16-3/4" long by 2-1/2" wide and is shaped to boost airflow for better lift, discharge, and bagging.

Which mower models and part numbers will these blades replace?

These budrash blades are engineered to be compatible with a wide range of 48" deck lawn tractors and garden tractors from brands such as Husqvarna, Poulan, Ariens, Craftsman, AYP and others. They replace several OEM numbers, but you should always verify your original part number before purchasing.

• Common compatible models: Husqvarna YTH24V48, YTH2348, YTH22K48, YTH23K48, GTH series and many Poulan 48" deck tractors.
• Replaces OEM part numbers: 173920, 180054, 532180054, 539107519 and related variants.
• Works with various brands: Ariens, Craftsman, AYP, Poulan Pro, Gravely, Roper and more when a 5-point star center hole is used.

How do these high-lift blades improve cutting and bagging performance?

The curved high-lift profile is designed to generate stronger upward airflow beneath the deck, which helps lift grass blades before cutting and moves clippings efficiently either out the discharge chute or into a bagger. That cleaner airflow reduces clumps and promotes a more even cut across the deck.

• High-lift curve increases suction for better bag filling and mulching when used with compatible systems.
• Consistent blade height and edge geometry deliver a smoother cut and fewer missed patches.
• Durable metal construction resists bending and wear under normal mowing conditions.

What are the installation details and physical specifications?

Installation is straightforward for most users: mount the blade with the air-lift curved edge facing the deck and align the 5-point star center hole to your spindle hardware. Basic tools—wrenches or a socket set—are all that's needed to replace the blades safely after raising and securing the tractor.

• Blade dimensions: 16-3/4" length × 2-1/2" width × 0.2" thickness.
• Center mounting: 5-point star configuration to match many OEM spindles.
• Finish: black protective coating to resist surface corrosion and reduce friction.

Are there any fitment checks or tips before buying?

Because decks and spindle hardware vary between models and years, confirm your mower’s part number or measure the old blade before ordering. Also check whether your mower uses a high-lift, low-lift, or mulching blade profile to ensure the budrash high-lift profile suits your intended use.

• Verify OEM part numbers listed on your original blade or in the owner's manual.
• Measure blade length and center hole type when part numbers are unavailable.
• Use proper torque and safety procedures when swapping blades to avoid damage or injury.

Who is this for: The budrash 48" high-lift 180054 blade 3-pack is aimed at owners of 48-inch riding mowers who need a durable replacement set to restore lift, improve discharge or bagging, and achieve a neater cut. It suits DIY mechanics, backyard landscapers, and fleet operators who prefer to repair and maintain equipment with OEM-compatible parts. Always confirm fitment with your mower model or original part number before purchase.
