Oregon Gatorline Round Weed Wacker/String Trimmer Line, .065 in. by 308 FT

What It Is

This is a 0.065-inch diameter, 308-foot spool of Oregon Gatorline round trimmer line, designed for gas and electric string trimmers/weed wackers. It’s a universal aftermarket replacement line, not an EGO-branded part.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Diameter: 0.065 in. – fits most small-to-medium trimmers (e.g., EGO Power+ 15 in., ST1500, ST1510T, and many Ryobi, DeWalt, or Black+Decker models). Check your trimmer’s recommended line size (usually stamped on the head or in the manual). Using a thicker line can overload the motor.
• Line type: Round, not twisted or serrated. Works in bump-feed, fixed-line, and speed-feed heads. Not for dedicated heavy-duty brush cutters.
• Spool size: 308 ft – enough for multiple reloads. No adapter needed; just cut to length and wind.
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is aftermarket (not EGO OEM). It’s compatible but may require slight trimming or winding adjustments in some EGO heads. No fitment issues reported for common models.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Oregon is a trusted brand in OPE. This line is durable but not reinforced; it’ll wear faster than twisted or serrated lines on thick weeds.
• Installation: Easy to wind manually. If your trimmer uses a pre-wound spool, you’ll need to cut and load it yourself. No special tools required.
• Common gotchas: The line is slightly stiffer than some OEM lines, which can cause occasional feed jams in bump heads if not wound evenly. Also, 0.065 in. is thin – great for light trimming, but it’ll snap quickly on woody brush or fence lines.
• Storage: 308 ft spool is bulky. Keep it in a dry place to prevent brittleness.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you have a small-to-medium electric or gas trimmer (especially an EGO) and want a reliable, budget-friendly bulk line for routine lawn edging and light weed trimming. Skip it if you need heavy-duty line for thick brush or if your trimmer requires a larger diameter (0.080 in. or 0.095 in.).
