You can count on trimmers and edgers to maintain a perfectly manicured lawn, season after season. But after much wear and tear, you may need to purchase replacement edger blades, trimmer line and other accessories to keep your equipment functioning at its best. Ace carries a large selection of edger and trimmer parts from brands like Craftsman, DeWalt, EGO and Black + Decker so you can find compatible replacements to fit your make and model to get back to work in no time.
Popular Trimmer Attachments and Edger Parts
You may need to purchase a string trimmer replacement line or a replacement head to stay on top of lawn maintenance. Look for the following common trimmer and edger parts to tackle maintenance tasks.
Trimmer Line
Whether you're a commercial landscaper or a homeowner who loves a good DIY yard project, using the appropriate string trimmer line is crucial to trim through thick grasses and weeds. The thicker the trimmer line, the heavier the workload it can handle. Line with a larger diameter delivers more power and durability, which results in less breakage and wear-out. On the other hand, if you're primarily dealing with light work such as grass trimming, a thinner diameter should be adequate.
Edger Blades
If you're dealing with a lawn that has thick grass or overgrown weeds, having the right lawn edger attachments can make all the difference. If line trimmers aren't enough, a heavy-duty edger blade attachment with multi-tooth cutting blades can power through tough grass and thick weeds with no problem. When tackling aggressive cuts, trimmer blades with serrated edges and hardened steel construction can get the job done with minimal effort.
String Trimmer Parts and Replacement Heads
Like lawn mowers or chainsaws, string trimmers require regular maintenance and may eventually need a head replacement. To help find the right string trimmer parts for you, it’s important to understand the differences between the three line-feed designs: bump feed, automatic feed, and fixed head systems.
- Bump Feed: These designs feed extra trimmer line whenever you lightly tap or bump the bottom of the equipment on the ground. Bump feed options give you more control over how much line you use.
- Automatic Feed:Like bump feed designs, automatic feed trimmers work by using a line-spooling motor. This option doesn't require tapping on the head, meaning you may be able to finish the job with fewer interruptions.
- Fixed Head Systems:Best suited for larger or commercial projects, fixed head systems are designed for jobs that require a thicker, tougher trimmer line. This type of line feed uses individual lengths of line loaded into the trimmer on an as-needed basis.
Versatile Power Tools with Trimmer and Edger Attachments
If you’re not using your edger too frequently, a separate edger attachment to your existing power tool base may be just the ticket. Edger or trimmer attachments—for attachment-capable power equipment can help you save in the long run as you build out your arsenal of garden tools for less. But it wouldn’t be limited to just edgers and trimmers, with a host of other attachment heads available, including chainsaws, leaf blowers, brushes, cultivators and more.
