0.095'' Trimmer Line Heavy Duty with Metal Core and Nylon Coating, 196ft/60m Steel Weed Eater String Spool Replacement for Gas and Electric Grass Trimmer and Brushcutters

What It Is

This is a heavy-duty trimmer line with a steel core and nylon coating, designed for cutting dense weeds, brush, and thick grass. It’s ideal for gas and electric string trimmers and brushcutters where standard nylon line snaps or wears too quickly.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Line diameter: 0.095 inches (2.4 mm). Confirm your trimmer’s recommended line size (check manual or head stamp). Using wrong diameter can jam or damage the head.
• Spool type: This is a pre-wound spool replacement, not bulk line. Ensure your trimmer uses a spool-style head (not bump-feed or fixed-line) and that the spool dimensions (width, hub diameter) match your model—measure your old spool if possible.
• Brand/model fit: Works with most gas and electric trimmers that accept 0.095” line and a standard spool. Not universal—check for common brands like Echo, Husqvarna, Stihl, Ryobi, or Craftsman. Aftermarket part; no OEM guarantee.
• Length: 196 ft total (60 m). Enough for several reloads or a single large spool.

Key Things to Know

• Cutting power: Metal core handles saplings and heavy brush without constant breakage, but it’s heavier than nylon—expect more vibration and wear on the trimmer head.
• Installation: Simple spool swap (wind or drop-in). No special tools needed, but ensure the spool lock aligns with your head’s feed mechanism. Some trimmers require specific winding direction (clockwise vs counterclockwise).
• Common gotchas: Metal core can damage soft trimmer heads or plastic bump knobs over time. Also, it’s less forgiving—if you hit a rock or fence, the line may snap rather than flex. Not for light grass trimming.
• Durability: Steel core resists fraying and melting better than standard line, but the nylon coating can peel if used at high RPMs for long periods.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you regularly clear thick weeds, brambles, or brush and your current line breaks too often. Skip it for light residential lawn edging or if your trimmer has a plastic, low-torque head—the added weight and impact can cause damage. Best for mid-to-heavy-duty gas trimmers or powerful electric models.
