Hipa 2-Pack 138971 High Lift Mower Blades 42-Inch – 5-Point Star, Craftsman LT1000/LT2000, Husqvarna Compatible

Overview

Meet the Hipa 2-Pack 138971 High Lift Mower Blades, a versatile replacement designed for 42-inch deck riding mowers. These blades align with a 5-point star center hole and cover several OEM numbers, offering a practical option when maintenance is needed for compatible models.

Each blade is 21 inches long with an air lift of 1-1/16 inches, a width of 2-1/4 inches, and a thickness of 5/32 inch. This geometry is crafted to lift grass efficiently, support a clean, even cut, and work smoothly on varied mowing conditions. The cutting edges are painted to help resist rust and protect during installation; the paint will wear away with use, which is normal for blades that see regular mowing.

Key benefits you may notice

• Two blades per pack provide a ready-to-install replacement set, reducing downtime between jobs.
• High-lift profile improves grass lifting and cutting efficiency on 42-inch decks.
• Compatibility with popular models: Craftsman LT1000/LT2000, Husqvarna 42" decks, and Poulan Pro equivalents.
• 5-point star center-hole design ensures secure mounting and balanced performance.
• Painted cutting edges help deter rust during storage and initial use.

What’s included and installation tips

• Includes two mower blades sized for 42" decks; ready for quick replacement when edges wear down.
• Handle blades with care; align the center-hole star for proper seating on the spindle.
• Inspect for shipping damage and balance the blade after installation to minimize vibration.

Real-world use notes: with a 21" blade length, 27 mm air lift, 57 mm width, and 4 mm thickness, the blades are designed to deliver consistent lift and a tidy edge on typical residential lawns. If you mow in damp or mixed conditions, this blade geometry can help maintain cutting efficiency and a steady sound profile. Remember—the painted edges are a protective feature and will wear off with time and use, signaling ongoing performance rather than a defect.

Compatibility and specs

These blades fit 42-inch decks and align with Craftsman LT1000 LT2000, Husqvarna 42" decks, and Poulan Pro riding mowers, among others. The 5-point star center-hole ensures precise alignment and steady rotation, while the 21" length with 1-1/16" air lift supports efficient grass handling and clean edge results.
