Whichever Bad Boy mower you have, it comes with blades designed to work best with your specific machine. If you’re looking for something a little different than what came with your mower, we’ve got a great selection of aftermarket blades for all sorts of Bad Boy mowers.
Here are the things to keep in mind when choosing new replacement blades for your Bad Boy mower:
-
Bad Boy Blade Compatibility – What kind of mower do you have?
First, you want to make sure that the blades you choose are designed to work with your specific model of Bad Boy mower. When comparing blades, note that some models are compatible with multiple models.
-
Blade type
The most common choice is a high-lift blade, which is ideal for lifting grass clippings into your mower’s deck so they can be discharged out the chute or processed into mulch. Some models work better with a low-lift blade, though — this design gives grass less lift and keeps it flatter on the ground as it is cut.
You can also choose gator blades, which combine high lift and low lift characteristics. They have small teeth on the back edge to help lift grass and leave it flat on the ground as it is cut. Gator blades are ideal for your lawn to look manicured, but they aren’t good at mulching clippings.
-
Cut Length
The two most common blade cuts are Standard length and Mulching length. Standard length blades are best for general use, while mulching blades chop up grass clippings more finely, so they don’t sit on the lawn and break down faster. Some of the newer Bad Boys have a third option called a Fusion blade, which works as a standard and mulching blade.
-
Blade size
The next thing to consider is blade size. Measure from the top of one cutting edge to the tip of the other and choose a new blade that matches that dimension exactly. You might need to measure more than once if you have multiple blades. It’s not unusual for these measurements to vary by a small amount, so take an average.
-
Blade thickness
Maintaining a consistent blade gauge or thickness will help you achieve a cleaner cut and maintain a level deck height. Measure the thickness of your current blades with a micrometer and choose replacements of equal gauge.
-
Center hole diameter
Look at the hole in the center of your blade and make sure it’s the same as the one on your replacement blade. If you’re not sure what size this is, you can check with a tape measure or even trace around the hole onto a piece of paper and compare it to a ruler or tape measure, drawing circles on paper until you find one that matches up with the diameter.
