Steel cutting blade or wire brush accessory for Ryobi Line Trimmer

[Aussiebuoy]

I have a Ryobi 18V 5.0Ah line trimmer and would like to purchase a steel cutting blade or steel wire brush that will cut larger weeds which the standard cutting line struggles with.  The weeds in question have a stem width of between 3 to 6mm.  Advice and/or suggestions would be appreciated.  Thank you.

Hi @Aussiebuoy,

I've spoken to Ryobi, and there are no blades or steel cable attachments for the Ryobi 18V 5.0Ah line trimmer. Bladed options are compatible with petrol machines, and the Ryobi 52cc 2 Stroke Easy Start Brushcutter would be an example. The brushcutter would be suitable up to around 3cm, and anything thicker would likely stall the machine.

It sounds like you might need a chainsaw or a heavy-duty lopper.
