I’ve never found a string trimmer in whose string doesn’t break constantly when I use ut. Is there such a thing as a chain trimmer or a metal guitar string trimmer?
I had the same quest, and tried to use bicycle brake cable, but which lasted about 4 seconds. Hard to believe, and which was potentially dangerous, as some other metal options would be. Maybe some type of fishing line would work.
Posting your question on a Sat. morning should get some interesting replies.
I could have waited but wanted to make a choice sooner. The weather here has been exceptional for growing, an answered prayer, but weeds come included.
If you are losing string like you say, it sounds like you have forgotten that it’s ONLY THE TIP of the string that does the cutting.
If you try to force the feed too fast, the string will fail every time.
Slow and easy is the best way to run a string trimmer. If you want to go hard and fast, get a sickle bar mower and knock yourself out.
I’m not sure of the string diameter, but I recently bought a Stihl gas trimmer (for a river lot with no electricity)...and the “string” is great. Doesn’t snap at the output holes and, because of a large reservoir, lasts forever. It isn’t the big commercial version, but it runs strong.

Try this line, good stuff.

I have a used 10” saw blade in my trimmer. The most amazing thing about it is that it doesn’t throw trimmings all over my feet and lower legs. I had to make a bushing because the hole in the saw blade is larger than the trimmer’s spindle.
