Bularie 46-Inch High-Lift Mower Blades 2-Pack — 6-Point Star, Carbon Steel for 46" Decks

The Bularie 942-04244 pair are high-lift 6-point star mower blades engineered as direct OEM replacements to restore cutting performance on 46-inch decks.

If your riding or zero-turn mower with a 46" deck is leaving uneven cuts, poor bagging, or clippings scattered across the lawn, these blades are built to return factory-level results. Designed to match exact OEM dimensions and fitments for popular brands, the blades combine a high-lift profile and heavy-duty carbon steel construction to improve airflow, clippings collection, and edge retention under typical yard conditions.

Will these blades fit my mower model?

These blades are manufactured to exactly replace several OEM part numbers and fit a wide range of 46" decks. Always compare the blade’s center hole and outer hole spacing to your mower’s spindle before ordering.

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

The high-lift shape creates stronger suction beneath the deck, which lifts grass blades for a cleaner, more uniform cut and better movement of clippings toward side discharge or bagging systems. That aerodynamic profile reduces clogging and helps when mowing taller or denser turf.

• Upward-curved high-lift design increases airflow and suction under the deck.
• Optimized for 2-in-1 bagging and side discharge configurations.
• Reduces clumping and improves even clipping dispersion for neater lawns.

What are the blade dimensions and build quality?

These Bularie blades match precise OEM specs to maintain deck balance and safe rotation. They’re forged from high-grade carbon steel and finished to resist weather, offering improved impact resistance and longevity compared with stock replacements.

• Overall length: 23-1/4", width: 3-1/8", thickness: 0.157" for balanced performance.
• Center: 5/8" 6-point star hole; outer: 1/4" holes 3" apart center-to-center for secure mounting.
• Heat-treated carbon steel construction with weatherproof coating for durability.

How should I install and maintain these blades for best results?

Installation is straightforward when the blade pattern matches your spindle; torque mounting hardware to the manufacturer’s spec. Regular sharpening and inspection after impacts will extend life and maintain safe operation.

• Install with the cutting edge oriented correctly and torque bolts to mower manufacturer specifications.
• Inspect after striking rocks or debris and sharpen as needed to maintain a clean cut.
• Balance blades after sharpening to prevent vibration and premature deck wear.

Who is this for: These Bularie 46" high-lift blades suit homeowners and landscapers who use 46-inch deck riding or zero-turn mowers and need a reliable OEM-style replacement. They’re ideal for operators looking to improve bagging and side-discharge performance, restore factory cutting quality, and replace worn or damaged blades with heavy-duty, long-lasting steel. Confirm your deck size and hole pattern before purchase to ensure proper fitment.
