KAKO 080 Trimmer Line, 080 Weed Eater String, Weed Wacker String .080, Round String Trimmer Line .080 Inch-1200 Ft-3 Lb Commercial Nylon 0.080 String Trimmer Line Fits Most String Trimmers(Round)

What It Is

This is a 0.080-inch (2.0mm) diameter round nylon trimmer line designed for commercial-grade trimming on most gas, electric, and battery-powered string trimmers. It’s sold in a 1,200-foot spool (3 lbs) for high-volume users.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Diameter: 0.080-inch – fits trimmers that accept .080, .065, or .095 lines (check your manual or current line for the exact size).
• Trimmer types: Works with both fixed-head and bump-feed heads, but not all heads can hold a 1,200-foot spool. If your head is small (e.g., most electric trimmers), you’ll need to manually wind shorter lengths.
• Compatibility: Fits most brands (Husqvarna, Echo, Stihl, Ryobi, DeWalt, etc.) as long as they accept .080 line. No OEM-specific adapters needed – it’s universal round line.
• What to check: Measure your current line’s diameter with calipers or match the “.080” printed on your existing spool. Also verify your head’s maximum line capacity (many bump heads hold 20–50 feet).

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Commercial-grade nylon is more durable than budget lines – resists melting and snapping better in heavy weeds or against fences.
• Installation: Requires manual winding (no pre-wound spool). Use a drill with a line winder attachment or wind by hand – takes ~10 minutes for a full head.
• Common gotcha: The 3-lb spool is heavy and large – not ideal for occasional homeowners who trim once a month. The line can also be stiff in cold weather; soak in warm water for 5 minutes to soften before winding.
• Noise/performance: Round line is quieter and less aggressive than star or serrated shapes – good for precision edging but slower on thick brush.

Should You Buy It

If you trim frequently (landscapers, large properties) and want a reliable, melt-resistant line that lasts through heavy use, this is a solid value at ~$26 for 1,200 feet. For occasional weekend trimming, a smaller pre-wound spool (50–200 ft) will be easier to handle and less wasteful.
