What It Is

This 6-pack of trimmer head spool line (part 4008 710 4302) is a replacement string spool designed specifically for Stihl FSA 56 battery-powered weed eaters equipped with the Autocut C2-2 trimmer head. It’s a direct drop-in spool for bump-feed or fixed-line trimming.

Fitment & Compatibility

  • Exact models: Stihl FSA 56 (and FSA 56 R, FSA 56 K variants) with the Autocut C2-2 head. Also fits other Stihl trimmers using the same Autocut C2-2 head (e.g., FSA 45, FSA 60, FS 40 C-E, FS 55, FS 56 RC).
  • Check before buying: Verify your trimmer head is marked “Autocut C2-2” – this spool will not fit Autocut 2-2, Autocut 25-2, or any other head type.
  • Measurements: The spool holds 0.080-inch (2.0 mm) diameter line, 13 feet (4 m) per spool. Line length and diameter are fixed – you cannot swap in thicker or thinner line.
  • OEM vs aftermarket: This is an aftermarket spool (brand “Head”), not Stihl OEM. Expect slightly different plastic feel, but dimensions match the factory part.

Key Things to Know

  • Quality variance: At 3.6 stars, some users report the line is brittle or snaps more easily than OEM Stihl spools. The 6-pack price is low, so you’re trading durability for cost.
  • Installation is tool-free: Pop off the trimmer head cover, remove old spool, drop in new one, thread line through eyelets, and snap cover back on. No winding required.
  • Common gotcha: The spool may be slightly tight in the head – if the line doesn’t feed freely, gently sand the spool edges or lubricate with silicone spray.
  • Line length is fixed: You cannot add more line if it runs short; each spool is pre-wound. Keep an extra spool handy.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Stihl FSA 56 (or compatible model) with the Autocut C2-2 head and want a budget-friendly 6-pack for light-to-moderate trimming, this works. But if you need heavy-duty cutting or find OEM spools reliable, skip it – the lower line durability may frustrate you.
