STIHL CF3 Ø 2.7 mm High-Tech Cruciform Line – 53 m
The STIHL CF3 Ø 2.7 mm High-Tech Cruciform mowing line gives professional-grade cutting performance for demanding trimming and mowing tasks. With its 2.7 mm diameter (≈ 0.106 in), this line balances strength and flexibility. The 53 m roll gives you plenty of supply so you can handle large jobs without frequent reloading.
Engineered for strength & durability
Made from carbon fibre reinforced material combined with plastic blends, the CF3 line offers excellent wear resistance. The cruciform profile improves cutting efficiency and holds up better under strain. It stays elastic during use, which helps resist breakage in coarse or dense grass.
Quieter, efficient mowing
This line works more quietly than simpler round profiles. Thanks to its shape and material, it cuts cleanly with less drag and fewer rattles. You spend less time replacing line and more time getting consistent results.
Large roll length for extended use
Supplied in a 53 m roll, this CF3 line meets the needs of longer trimming sessions. The larger length reduces the number of spool changes, keeping you working steadily on large patches, tall grass banks, or bigger gardens.
Professional tip for line life
STIHL recommends soaking new line in water for 12-24 hours before using it. Doing this makes the line more flexible and less likely to break, helping you get maximum durability and consistent performance.
