Achieve a Professional, Fine Turf Finish
The Allett QC 10-Blade Quick Change Cartridge is the ultimate upgrade for any serious lawn enthusiast aiming for a flawless, manicured lawn. Constructed from hardened and ground steel, this cartridge is engineered to provide a super fine cut that is both sharp and clean. A cleaner cut is less damaging to the grass plant, promoting healthier growth and reducing the risk of disease.
Compared to the standard 6-blade cylinder (which has a clip rate of 79 cuts per metre), the 10-blade cartridge delivers an impressive 131 cuts per metre. This higher clip rate results in a more uniform and dense finish, essential for achieving that coveted ‘bowling green’ look. It allows the mower to cut as low as 6mm (or even 3mm with the Allett Stirling model), giving you precise control over your lawn’s appearance.
Who is the Allett 10-Blade Cartridge For?
This specialist cartridge is designed for dedicated home gardeners and turf professionals who require a cutting height below 20mm. It is the perfect tool for maintaining ornamental lawns, croquet lawns, and other fine turf areas. To get the best results from this cartridge, it is recommended that the lawn is cut regularly, at least twice a week during the growing season. While the standard 6-blade cylinder is excellent for general purpose cutting at 20mm and above, the 10-blade cartridge excels at producing a superior, close-cut finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main difference between the Allett 10-blade and 6-blade cartridge?
The primary difference is the fineness of the cut. The 10-blade cartridge has a higher clip rate (131 cuts per metre) compared to the 6-blade (79 cpm), resulting in a denser, more uniform finish. It is designed for cutting below 20mm, whereas the 6-blade is a general-purpose cylinder for heights of 20mm and above.
What is the lowest cutting height I can achieve with this cartridge?
The 10-blade cutting cylinder allows you to mow as low as 6mm on compatible Allett mowers. When used with the Allett Stirling model, an even lower cut of 3mm is possible.
How often should I be mowing to benefit from a 10-blade cylinder?
To achieve the best results and maintain lawn health when using the 10-blade cartridge, you should be cutting your lawn frequently, at least twice a week during the peak growing season. This regular cutting prevents stressing the grass and encourages a dense, healthy sward.
Is the 10-blade cartridge suitable for a general family lawn?
While it can be used on any lawn, the 10-blade cartridge is specifically designed for enthusiasts seeking a very fine, short, ornamental finish. For a typical family lawn that is cut less frequently or kept at a higher length (above 20mm), the standard 6-blade cartridge is generally more suitable.
