Nylon Trimming Blades, Pack of 10, for XLT-240

Replacement nylon blades for the XLT-240 cordless trimmer, ten to a pack. Instead of winding line onto a spool, this head takes moulded blades that clip in, and a worn one is pulled out and replaced in seconds without unwinding anything or taking the head apart.

That design suits a small cordless machine. Winding a spool by hand is the job people put off, and a badly wound spool is the usual cause of a head that refuses to feed line. With blades there is nothing to wind and nothing to tangle. They wear back like any nylon line, and faster if you trim against walls, kerbs and stones, which is why they are sold in packs of ten rather than singly. Keep a pack in the store and the trimmer is ready whenever the grass needs cutting, instead of standing idle while somebody looks for line.
