I purchased for my Bad Boy 60” and the extra weight of the 3 additional blades slowed down the engine rpm’s and blade speed. Not to mention the overall stress on all the components and belt. I removed this product after 1 mowing. **Q: Would it fit for a 42 inch Cub Cadet riding mower? it would require 21 inch for each side.** A: The lemgth of the blade is not the issue. Does your blade measure 3 inches in width with a 5/8 or 15/16 inch hole (spindle size)? If those details match then yes this will fit. **Q: will it work on a blade which has 11/16 hole or can I just drill it out ?** A: I would not do any modification to it to be honest if not made for mower don’t use them and unless you have a 30hp motor or higher I would not suggest they put a lot of stress on engine and spindle ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow works great. *by A***R on January 4, 2025* no issues with product works great ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love them *by P***9 on October 2, 2024* I won’t cut without them again ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Moderately well impressed. *by S***Y on September 23, 2023* I have a Craftsman Pro lawnmower. A bit heavier duty than they typical craftsman, but I'm not sure that it's considered "professional" quality.This X blade adapter will not fit the stock blades - you've got to be using 3 inch wide blades. In my case, I got two G5 Gator blades that fit the spindle (5 point star) and two G5 Gator blades with a 9/16 center hole. Put the star adapter blade on top, then the X blade adapter, then the 9/16 center hole blade on the bottom.I experience no shaking, no vibration, nor any other ill effects. The mower is doing a slightly better job of mowing. I think the quality of the mulch has improved a little. The most noticeable improvement is the bagger. There is more air pressure, which pushes clippings, leaves, and pine straw through the chute better.The 24 horse engine has plenty of power to drive the X-blades. I don't hear or feel any detrimental effects on the electric clutch (or, power takeoff, if you prefer).Value . . . As with so many things, I feel these are a little overpriced. Basically, you're paying $15 for each pair of blades. The adapters aren't all that complicated, no machine work or milling involved. It's just a stamped bit of metal, with the edges folded to conform to the outer edges of your blades. I think the price should come down about 30%, to be honest.I'm giving them 4 stars right now. If the adapters last more than a year, I'll try to remember to give them another star. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ballard Inc X-Blade Dual Mulching Blade Adapter (3” Wide Blade, 5/8” and 15/16″ Center Hole) - Ballard Inc X-Blade Dual Mulching Blade Adapters (3 Pack) (X-B3) - Oregon Precision Mower Blade Balancer, Balances Blades After Sharpening, Universal Metal/Zinc Cone Design, For All Lawn Mower Blades, Fits Stihl, Troy, Husqvarna and More (42-100) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/199425119-ballard-inc-x-blade-dual-mulching-blade-adapter-3-wide](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/199425119-ballard-inc-x-blade-dual-mulching-blade-adapter-3-wide) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
