Nylon
filament line is used as the cutting member on of choice
on virtually all grass trimmers. It performs
very well because it is lightweight, inexpensive and relatively
safe. However, when rotated at cutting speeds often
exceeding 6000 rpm, the centrifugal force on the line
makes it very rigid and it takes on different properties
much like a piece of aluminum wire. When this
rigid nylon strikes a fixed object such as a rock,
fence, or tree it causes it to bend back at the attachment
point – most commonly a brass eyelet. As
the line continues to bend back and forth it heats
and eventually weakens the line at this point often
resulting in the common and highly frustrating BROKEN
LINES.
The operator is then forced to turn off the trimmer
engine, open the spool and manually advance the line
out which wastes line and time. The traditional “bump
and spool” system
uses a cavity within the head to store and feed line
through one or two eyelets on the head. Most users
will agree that it is very difficult to not only get
the line(s) wound on correctly, but that the line never
seems to feed out correctly without getting tangles
and again forcing the operator to stop and fix the
problem. Trimmer manufacturers are now offering pre-wound
spools but these cost between $5.00- $9.00 each and
often don’t last as long as a tank of gas.
Some manufacturers now have an easy loading system
that holds short sections of line with a one-way locking
system. However, the line still breaks off regularly
and is quite often difficult to remove. Also
over time the teeth in the locking system become inundated
with dirt and no longer hold the line in place rendering
the head useless.
