MOECSHSY Strimmer Spool Replacement (1.6mm) for McGregor & Worx strimmers
Product description
If your strimmer spool has run out of line (or the line just won’t feed properly), replacing the spool is usually the fastest way to get back to tidying edges and cutting overgrowth. This MOECSHSY replacement spool is designed as an autofeed compatible option for a listed set of McGregor and Worx models, using 1.6mm double line.
At a glance
On paper, the main appeal here is simplicity: you swap out the old spool for a replacement that’s intended to work with the autofeed system, aiming to reduce the repetitive hand-winding job. It also claims a cut-efficient setup with reduced drag, which is the kind of thing you’ll notice if your current line feels like it’s slowing down or catching as it feeds.
Still, it’s not the best fit for everyone—compatibility is model-specific, and if your strimmer doesn’t match the listed models, you may find it doesn’t fit the way you expect.
Key points
This is a replacement spool for strimmers that use an autofeed arrangement, with 1.6mm double line designed for effective trimming. It’s built to be durable for day-to-day garden use, and the installation process is described as tool-free: remove the old spool and replace with the new one.
Where it can make sense is when you want to restore performance without getting into line refills and messy winding. If you regularly tackle lawn edges, borders, or tougher patches in between mow cycles, an autofeed spool can feel like a practical upgrade in routine.
Where it shines
A couple of things stand out from the description.
First, the autofeed angle. The spool is described as using centrifugal force to transport the trimming thread as needed. In practice, that’s aimed at keeping the cutting action going without you stopping to manually manage the line.
Second, the line construction. It’s said to be made from ABS and nylon resin fabric, which should help with flexibility and durability rather than feeling brittle. The “less drag for more efficient cuts” claim also points to better cutting behaviour—something that matters when you’re working through thick-ish grass where the line is under load.
Finally, installation. The listing suggests no additional tools are required. That matters if you want a quick fix after a spool runs down.
What to check before buying
Compatibility is the big one. The product description lists a range of compatible models, including several Worx (such as WG100E, WG101E, WG104E1 550W HD, WG105, WG106, WG108, WG109, WG110E, WG112, WG112E, WG113, WG115, WG117, WG118, WG118E, WG119E) and McGregor models (GGT350G, GGT450G, GGT600G, MET3525, MET4530, MET6032). It also mentions Qualcast GT25 350w and GT30 450w models (and specific reference numbers).
Before ordering, it’s worth checking your strimmer’s exact model number against the list. If you’re near the edge of what’s mentioned, don’t assume it’ll fit—strimmer spools can be picky.

Who it’s for (and who should skip it)
It’s a decent pick if you want a like-for-like style replacement for a compatible McGregor or Worx strimmer, and you’d rather avoid manually winding line. It also suits people who just want to get back to trimming quickly, especially for regular edge work.
It may not suit you if your model isn’t on the compatibility list, or if your current strimmer doesn’t use an autofeed spool arrangement. In that case, you could end up spending more time trying to make it work than you would with a more straightforward refill approach.
Also, if you’re expecting performance beyond what your machine is designed for, keep expectations realistic. This is a replacement spool, not a tuning upgrade.
Should you buy it?
Buy it if your strimmer model matches the listed McGregor/Worx models and you want an autofeed compatible 1.6mm double line spool with a simpler, tool-free swap. It’s especially sensible if you’re fed up with hand-winding and just want consistent feeding while you trim.
Skip it if you can’t confirm your model number from the list, or if your strimmer doesn’t rely on an autofeed spool system. In those situations, compatibility risk is the deal-breaker.
Quick check: match the model number first, then think about whether you value “swap-and-go” over manual line refills.
