49-16-2712 Trimmer Line 0.080" x 150ft Twisted String Line, Heavy Duty Replacement Trimmer Line for String Trimmers, High Strength Low Breakage Lawn Edging Line

What It Is

This is a 0.080-inch diameter twisted trimmer line, 150 feet long, designed for heavy-duty trimming and edging. It’s a universal replacement line for gas, electric, and battery-powered string trimmers that accept round or twisted line of this thickness.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Line diameter: 0.080" (2.0 mm) – fits trimmer heads that specify 0.080" or 0.065"–0.095" range. Do not use on heads requiring 0.100" or larger.
• Line type: Twisted, not round – compatible with most standard bump-feed, fixed-line, or auto-feed heads. Not for heads that only accept pre-cut square or star-shaped line.
• Brand/model: Universal fit – no OEM restriction. Works with Echo, Husqvarna, Stihl, Ryobi, Troy-Bilt, Craftsman, and others, as long as the head accepts 0.080" line.
• What to check before buying: Measure your current line diameter with calipers or match the spec printed on your trimmer head. Confirm your head can spool 150 ft (most can, but check spool capacity if you have a small electric trimmer).

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Twisted design reduces breakage and cuts through heavy weeds better than round line. Users report low fraying and good longevity for residential use.
• Installation: Easy to wind onto a spool, but the twisted shape may require a bit more care to avoid tangling. Soak in water for 10 minutes before loading to reduce stiffness.
• Common gotcha: 0.080" is thinner than standard 0.095" line – it’s lighter and feeds easier but wears faster on thick brush or rocky terrain. Not ideal for commercial-grade trimming.
• Length: 150 ft gives you multiple reloads (typically 5–8 refills for a standard spool). Good value per foot.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you have a mid-range electric or gas trimmer that uses 0.080" line, and you want a reliable, low-breakage option for regular yard maintenance. Skip it if you need thicker line for heavy-duty clearing or if your trimmer head requires a specific OEM line shape.
