Stens 345-785 Medium-Lift Blade

The Stens 345-785 is a medium-lift replacement blade built for standard residential mowing. It fits owners who want a direct swap for a worn Woods 13404KT blade without changing deck hardware. The innovative design targets clean cutting on typical lawn heights. It is not for buyers who need high-lift airflow for bagging heavy clippings or mulching kits that demand specialised blade geometry.

Capacity and headroom for medium-lift decks

The blade delivers enough lift for routine side-discharge or rear-discharge mowing on established turf. It handles weekly cuts at common deck settings without bogging the spindle. It runs out of steam when grass is wet, thick or left too long between cuts because the medium-lift profile moves less air than high-lift alternatives. Builders who need maximum vacuum for striping or leaf collection should look elsewhere.

Build quality and mounting implications

Stens manufactures the blade to meet OEM specifications for the Woods 13404KT mounting pattern, so bolt-hole alignment matches the original hardware. The innovative steel treatment resists early dulling and reduces the frequency of sharpening sessions. The centre-hole and offset holes drop onto existing spindles without adapters. The finish withstands normal corrosion exposure but is not rated for abrasive sandy soils that accelerate edge wear.
