    Default Stihl trimmer line

    Stihl have a square twisted line which is multi colored and hard like wire,looked impressive to me.
    Anyone here using it and got a review on what they think of it ?

    Stihl are always bringing out something new. Be interested to hear how it goes. Have trailed many nylon cords over the years but always go back to the trusty diamond edge.

    I too have trailed heaps of diamond cut etc but keep going back to r echo silent cord 3.3
    It's a ribbed blue colour. Doesn't make that high whizzing sound and lasts for ever against rocks etc.
