KAKO 080 Trimmer Line Heavy Duty, Weed Eater String .080, String Trimmer Line .080, Weed Wacker String .080 Inch-1230ft-3lb Trimmer String .080 Fits Most String Trimmers(Round)

What It Is

The KAKO 080 Trimmer Line is a heavy-duty, round .080-inch diameter weed eater string designed for residential and light commercial trimming. It fits most standard gas, electric, and battery-powered string trimmers that accept .080-inch line.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your trimmer’s line diameter requirement. .080-inch (2.0mm) is a common size for mid-duty trimmers (e.g., many Ryobi, Black+Decker, Echo, Husqvarna, and Craftsman models). Check your owner’s manual or the trimmer head for the recommended diameter. This is an aftermarket line, not OEM-specific, so it works with any brand that uses .080-inch line. Do not use in trimmers requiring .065, .095, or .105 line—too small or too large will cause poor feeding or damage. Also verify your trimmer head type: round line works in bump-feed, fixed-line, and automatic-feed heads.

Key Things to Know

• Heavy-duty construction: KAKO claims this line is more durable than standard .080 line, reducing breakage on thick weeds and edging. However, it’s still round, not twisted or square, so it won’t cut as aggressively as specialty shapes.
• Installation: Easy to load into most trimmer heads—just cut to length and follow your trimmer’s loading instructions. No tools required.
• Long spool: 1,230 feet (3 lbs) is a bulk spool—good for multiple trimmers or frequent use. Store in a dry place to prevent tangling.
• Potential gotcha: Some users report the line can be slightly stiffer than premium brands, which may cause occasional feeding issues in bump-feed heads. If your trimmer is finicky, try a smaller test piece first.

Should You Buy It

Buy the KAKO 080 if you need a budget-friendly, heavy-duty .080-inch line for regular trimming on a mid-duty trimmer and don’t mind a slightly stiffer feel. It’s a solid value for residential use, but if you’re a pro or need maximum cutting aggression, consider a twisted or square line instead.
