AC80RL3 String Trimmer Replacement Spool, Compatible with Ryobi One Plus+ AC80RL3 18v, 24v, and 40v Cordless Trimmers, 080 Inch Twisted Line, AC80RL3 Weed Eater String Auto-Feed Spool Line 11ft

What It Is

The AC80RL3 is a pre-wound replacement spool for Ryobi One Plus+ cordless string trimmers, loaded with 11 feet of 0.080-inch twisted line. It’s designed for auto-feed heads, reducing the need to manually bump or advance the string during light to medium trimming.

Fitment & Compatibility

Check before buying: This spool fits Ryobi One Plus+ cordless trimmers that specifically list AC80RL3 in the manual or on the trimmer head. It works with 18V, 24V, and 40V models that use the same auto-feed head design. Do not assume universal fit—even within Ryobi, some models use different spool sizes or line diameters (e.g., 0.065-inch or 0.095-inch). Measure your current spool’s outer diameter (roughly 2.5 inches) and line thickness—0.080 inch is the standard for this spool. Aftermarket spools are often compatible, but OEM Ryobi spools (Part # AC80RL3) guarantee fit. If your trimmer head is non-Ryobi or uses a manual feed, this spool won’t work.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Pre-wound line is twisted for durability and cuts grass/weeds well, but it’s not heavy-duty—avoid thick brush or stone contact.
• Installation: Simple snap-in replacement (no tools needed), but you must align the spool’s notches with the head’s drive pins. Misalignment causes jamming or no feed.
• Common gotcha: The auto-feed mechanism relies on centrifugal force—if the line doesn’t advance, check for debris or worn-out spring inside the head. Don’t overfill; 11 feet is the max.
• Line length: 11 feet is short for large yards—expect to replace spools more often than with bulk line reels.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own a compatible Ryobi One Plus+ cordless trimmer and want a quick, no-fuss replacement without measuring or winding your own line. It’s a solid choice for light-duty trimming on standard lawns, but skip it if you need heavy-gauge line for thick weeds or prefer buying bulk spools for cost savings.
