Each spindle is CNC-machined from high-grade aluminum alloy, fitted with grease zerks, and fastened with Grade 5 hardware for a sturdy, long-lasting joint. The included 1\/2\" x 97\" belt is sized to the belt part family used on many 42\" decks so you can replace worn components in one go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow will these spindles improve my mower’s cutting performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorn or bent spindle housings and failing bearings cause uneven blade rotation and erratic cuts. Replacing the spindle assemblies restores correct blade alignment and smooth rotation, which reduces scuffing and uneven grass discharge.
