Know Your STIHL Trimmer Line
We put a lot of pride and precision engineering into our STIHL trimmers. But did you know that we also manufacture our own trimmer line?
The majority of STIHL trimmer line is made with pride in America at our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Virginia Beach, VA. With a custom blend of polymers, STIHL sells nine types of trimmer line, each designed for a different type of cutting application. Why nine types? Because not all cutting jobs are the same – we make different diameters and shapes of cutting line to accommodate the wide range of cutting scenarios you might find in your landscape.

It is available in .065, .080, .095, .105, and .130 diameters and is specially formulated to prevent fraying and welding. It's an excellent "multi-purpose" line, designed to hold up under a wide range of cutting conditions. We can help you choose the diameter that's right for your trimming needs.
