RCK48-15BX mulching or Gator blades

Happy Gilmore · Mar 23, 2014

Hey guys, looking to get some Gator or mulching blades for my RCK48-15BX deck. Any suggestions? No luck on search.

Any thoughts

I have used the gator blades with good results. Good construction, much improved quantity of discharge out the side. In the fall I run my yard vac considerably less due to the mulching power of the gator blades. Highly recommend. I have the RCK54-23BX deck.

I ordered them here : Husqvarna Chainsaws, Outdoor Power Equipment and Tree Care Supplies from Bailey's

I didn't see a 48" deck option by Gator - perhaps I missed it? The model # that covers my deck is only 1+ years old; I originally bought a blade from them that was the right dimensions and had a machine shop bore out the center holes to work with my deck.

Another vote for the Gators.

Cant help you with what model to get because I have a 54P.

You need the measurements of the factory blades to start. Oregon has all their blades listed in their catalog, all you got to do is match what you have with the catalog.

I think they might even have a web ap to select blades... IIRC the model selection is pretty limited and it wouldnt work for me.

Thanks sn and Scooby, I can't seem to find a 48" deck option either. I'll get the exact individual blade specs and check around to see what I can come up with. I tried searching the forum and google for blades for the deck model #, maybe the blade spec will be the ticket.
