Overview
This aftermarket spool kit contains six pre-wound AC14RL3A replacement spools and two spool caps for Ryobi ONE+ cordless string trimmers. Each spool is loaded with 0.065-inch auto-feed line, matching the OEM spec for smooth, bump-feed operation. It is a cost-effective way to keep your trimmer running all season without paying dealer prices for factory spools.

Compatibility
Designed for Ryobi ONE+ 18V, 24V, and 40V cordless string trimmers and weed eaters that use the AC14RL3A spool format. The spool dimensions and line gauge match the original Ryobi specification. Check your trimmer’s spool part number before ordering to confirm fit.
Installation notes
Press the tabs on the spool cap to release it, remove the spent spool, and drop the new pre-wound spool onto the hub. Make sure the line exits in the direction indicated by the arrow on the trimmer head. Seat the spring underneath, snap the cap back in place, and pull the line ends through the eyelets. Proper line direction is critical — winding against the arrow will cause feeding problems and premature line breakage.
Common questions
Q: Will these AC14RL3A 0.065” replacement spools fit my Ryobi One+ 18V cordless trimmer, or are they only for 24V and 40V models?
These spools are made for Ryobi trimmers that use the AC14RL3A style spool and cap system, including select One+ 18V, 24V, and 40V cordless models. Since Ryobi has multiple head designs, the safest check is to match your original spool part number and cap style to the listing before installing.
Q: How do I install the 0.065” auto-feed spool and cap, and do I need to wind the line myself?
No rewinding is needed because these come pre-wound and ready to install. Just remove the old cap, take out the worn spool, clean any grass or debris from the spool housing, then insert the new spool with the line fed through the eyelet and snap the replacement cap back on securely.
Q: Is 0.065” line strong enough for regular trimming, and what kind of cutting is this spool best for?
The 0.065” line is best for light to medium-duty trimming, such as grass, edging, and routine cleanup around sidewalks and fences. For the best auto-feed performance and less line breakage, avoid using it on thick woody weeds, hard stems, or repeatedly striking concrete, brick, or chain-link fencing.
