Brush Cutter Blade for Cordless Lidl Strimmer

Thargor

Probably a long shot but does anyone know if its possible to get one of those metal cutting disks for one of these types of strimmers? I find it performs very well on grass and broad leaf weeds (even ripping them up from between pavement slabs) but the minute it touches a briar or other bush it snaps and I have to open it to reset the strings again, gets annoying when tidying up rough stuff:

I doubt that would be powerful enough to use a steel blade.

Agree with the above. It takes a lot more power to spin a steel blade fast enough to cut through weeds, power only a petrol engine can provide.

That type of strimmer is only a grass cutter. It shouldn't go anywhere near anything woody like a briar.

Cord snapping can be a bit of an issue even with more powerful machines. It helps massively to keep the line moist or rather not use it when its dried out. More expensive Oregon line comes with a foam insert you are supposed to put water on.

Check youtube for some more views on the subject of soaking stimmer line.

Hmmm, interesting thanks, although looking at that video my method of loading the line might also be the cause of some my issues.
