Oregon TerraMax .095" Diameter String Trimmer Line, 5lb Spool (24-095)

What It Is

The Oregon TerraMax .095" diameter string trimmer line is a heavy-duty, professional-grade replacement spool designed for gas and high-powered battery string trimmers. It’s ideal for thick weeds, brush, and heavy trimming where standard .080" lines snap or wear out quickly.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Diameter: .095" (2.41 mm) – fits any trimmer head that accepts this line size. Check your trimmer’s manual or head for a stamped line diameter limit; using .095" in a head rated for .080" may cause feeding issues or engine bogging.
• Spool Type: Pre-wound 5 lb bulk spool (not a preloaded cartridge). You’ll need to cut and load line manually into your trimmer head. Works with universal bump-feed, speed-feed, and fixed-line heads that accept bulk line.
• Brand Compatibility: Not brand-specific. Works with EGO, Stihl, Husqvarna, Echo, Ryobi, and others, provided the head is .095"-compatible. No need to match OEM part numbers.
• Check Before Buying: Verify your trimmer head’s max line diameter (often printed on the head or spool cap). For EGO power+ trimmers, .095" is heavier than stock .080", so expect reduced runtime but better cutting aggression.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Multi-lobed, serrated edge design cuts through thick vegetation faster than round line. Resists fraying and breakage better than standard nylon.
• Installation Difficulty: Moderate. Loading a 5 lb spool requires cutting multiple lengths (typically 15–20 ft per refill). Have a sharp blade or line cutter ready. Not as convenient as pre-wound cartridges.
• Weight: 5 lbs is a bulk spool for multiple refills, not a single trimmer spool. Ideal for frequent users or commercial operators; casual homeowners may find smaller packs more practical.
• Gotcha: .095" line is heavy—some bump-feed heads may struggle to advance it consistently. Test on a scrap piece first. If your head is worn or has weak springs, upgrade to a speed-feed head for best results.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you have a heavy-duty trimmer (gas or high-torque battery like EGO power+) and regularly tackle thick weeds, blackberries, or brush. It’s overkill for light grass trimming around a small lawn. The bulk spool is cost-effective for frequent users but not for one-off jobs.
