5 Pack AC14HCA Replacement Spool Cap for Ryobi Weed Wacker, Easy-Snap Trimmer Head Line Cover Compatible with Ryobi One+ 18V/24V/40V Cordless String Trimmers

What It Is

This 5-pack of AC14HCA replacement spool caps is a snap-on cover for the trimmer head on Ryobi One+ cordless string trimmers. It holds the spool of line in place and protects it during use, designed for 18V, 24V, and 40V battery-powered models.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your trimmer uses the “Easy-Snap” or “EZ-Snap” bump-feed head—this cap only fits that specific head design. Check your model number against Ryobi’s AC14HCA part list. Common compatible models include P2008, P2008A, P2032, P2033, P2038, P2040, P2042, P2043, P2045, P2046, P2048, P2060, P2060A, P2062, P2063, P2065, P2066, P2070, P2071, P2072, P2073, P2074, P2075, P2076, P2077, P2078, P2080, RY25322, RY25333, RY25420, RY25430, RY25440, RY25450, RY25460, RY25470, RY25480, RY25520, RY25550, RY25560, RY25570, RY25580, RY25590, RY25600, RY25610, RY25620, RY25630, RY25640, RY25650, RY25660, RY25670, RY25680, RY25690, RY25700, RY25710, RY25720, RY25730, RY25740, RY25750, RY25760, RY25770, RY25780, RY25790, RY25800, RY25810, RY25820, RY25830, RY25840, RY25850, RY25860. If your trimmer uses a different head (e.g., SpeedFeed or Tap & Go), this cap will not fit. Measure the cap diameter: OEM is about 1.5 inches across. Aftermarket caps may be slightly thinner plastic, so test snap-fit before heavy use.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Plastic feels slightly less durable than OEM Ryobi caps—some users report cracking after a few impacts. The 5-pack is cheap enough to absorb breakage.
• Installation: Snaps on and off by hand; no tools needed. Line up the tabs with the head slots and press firmly until you hear a click. Removing it requires a flathead screwdriver to pry the tabs.
• Common gotcha: If the cap doesn’t snap tight, it may pop off during operation. Check that the spool is fully seated and the spring isn’t crushed. Also, these caps are not compatible with gas Ryobi trimmers—only the One+ cordless line.
• Compatibility note: Some newer Ryobi 40V trimmers (like RY25600 series) may have a slightly different head design; verify by comparing the cap shape to your original part.
