.080 Trimmer Line 164-Foot, Heavy Duty Star-Shaped Weed Eater String, Commercial Grade Reinforced Nylon 66, Universal Fit for All Gas and Electric String Trimmers, Weed Wacker String

What It Is

This is a 0.080-inch thick, star-shaped trimmer line, 164 feet long, made from reinforced Nylon 66. It’s designed for heavy-duty trimming, edging, and scalping on gas and electric string trimmers, including commercial-grade use.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Line diameter: 0.080 in. (2.0 mm). Check your trimmer’s manual or existing line for the max diameter it can accept. Most standard trimmers handle 0.080–0.095 in. If your trimmer requires 0.065 or 0.105, this won’t fit.
• Universal fit: Works with any trimmer head that accepts a single spool of round or shaped line (bump-feed, fixed, or speed-feed). Not for pre-cut line heads or models requiring a specific brand cartridge.
• Length: 164 ft. will fill most standard spools 2–4 times. Measure your trimmer head’s capacity (common spools hold 15–30 ft.).
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is an aftermarket line. No brand-specific compatibility issues, but some trimmer heads (e.g., Echo Speed-Feed 400) may require slightly different winding technique due to the star shape.

Key Things to Know

• Star shape vs round: The star edges cut thicker weeds and brush more aggressively than round line, but it wears faster on pavement or rocky edges. Expect to replace more often if used on concrete.
• Nylon 66 durability: This is stiffer and more resistant to heat and abrasion than standard Nylon 6. It’s less prone to melting on high-torque trimmers but harder to wind onto the spool—soak in warm water for 5 minutes if it feels brittle.
• Installation difficulty: Moderate. The star shape doesn’t slide as smoothly through the eyelet; you may need to trim the end at a 45° angle to feed it. Use gloves to avoid cuts from the sharp edges.
• Noise and vibration: The star profile can produce more vibration and noise than round line. Not ideal for lightweight electric trimmers—may cause head wobble.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you tackle heavy weeds, briars, or light brush with a gas or high-torque electric trimmer, and you prefer aggressive cutting over line longevity. Skip it if you trim mostly grass near sidewalks or fences, or if your trimmer requires a thinner line (0.065 in.) or a specific OEM cartridge.
