BLACK+DECKERA6442-XJ Dual Line

Bought this for an old strimmer and it fitted well, is really strong and works well.

I was about to discard my Black & Decker GL660 strimmer after the spool cap shattered. I thought there is no way I am going to find a replacement as I had bought the unit some years ago. Well I was lucky enough to find it on Amazon both the spool and the cap. In order to make sure I had a some spares and also to replace the current one, I bought bundles to which are much more cost effective as the minimum order for free post is £10.2 X Black & Decker A6442 Dual Line 2X6 For GL660PC/670PC £8.18Black & Decker A6441 Dual Line 2X6 For GL660PC/670PC £3.70Total with VAT £11.88I have tried the units and they work just like before. I point I noticed was the line cutter mechanisms on the caps are better designed than the original ones. If I knew these units were going to last another few years, I would have given 5 stars. So all in all good and it has saved me having to buy another streamer.I would love to have purchased a cost effective lawn edge cutter but unfortunately most of the ones on the market which use blades are a few hundred pounds.

Ideal for my strimmer. Easy to put on and appears of good value

So the strimmer had stopped auto feeding the line out about a year ago, every time the line woar down I had to unclip the orange bit and manualy feed out some line. Its nota big garden so this was just anoying. (I was too tight to buy a new strimmer!) The line had almost run out so was looking on amazon for more wire and came across this. For under £8 I thaught why not have a go. So glad I did, it arrived quickly and was super easy to fit. (Took under 30 seconds). Strimmer now works better than I ever remember and should last years to come. Nice one!

Good for price,unfortunately it didn't fit my strimmer

I have given up using non-OEM spools on the B&D strimmer. Got these for not much more and they just simply work!

I would not recommend this product as it does not fit like the original spool due to extended plastic ridges inside the hole that attaches to the strimmer head. I did eventually get it on but had to use significant force to do so at which point it cannot be easily removed. After about 10 minutes use the line broke and I had to forcibly remove it using various tools, I eventually ended up having to drill out the ridges to make it fit, therefore I cannot recommend this product as it's way more hassle than it's worth even if it is cheap.

Bought this for our aging B+D Reflex Plus GL546 based on feedback suggesting it worked just fine. At £7.22 for both spool and line, it was worth a try.Everything looked as it should, but the spool would not fit onto the strimmer head. It was too tight. On looking inside the spool, I could see there were vertical ridges preventing it. Rather than give up, I used a lot of pressure (with palm of hand) until the 2 lugs snapped into place. I ran the strimmer, tapped it on the ground and more line was released. Great, it worked just fine.Having looked at the old spool, I realised the ridges inside the new spool extend further up. But with perseverance it works. Only problem will be removing it. It is absolutely stuck in place, so when the line runs out I'l likely have to break the spool to get it off or more likely just retire the whole GL546.Happy with the performance of this spool on our GL 546. Just hope I don't have to remove it any time soon.
