Greenworks 80V 16 in Cordless String Trimmer — Tool Only, Brushless & Attachment-Ready

The Greenworks 80V 16-inch Cordless String Trimmer (tool only) is a brushless, attachment-capable trimmer built to deliver commercial-grade cutting power without gas.

Designed for landscapers and homeowners who want a gas-free alternative with professional performance, this Greenworks 80V trimmer combines a powerful brushless motor, a 16-inch cutting swath, and an attachment-ready powerhead. It’s lightweight and ergonomically shaped to reduce fatigue, while offering variable speed control so you can dial in the right amount of torque for different jobs. Batteries and chargers are sold separately, and the head accepts .080" dual line bump-feed for quick line advancement.

How much power and runtime can I expect from the 80V system?

The 80V platform delivers torque and cutting capacity comparable to small gas engines, making it suitable for thick grass and heavy weeds. Runtime depends on the battery capacity you choose — Greenworks offers 2Ah and 4Ah packs that balance weight and runtime for different needs.

• Brushless motor gives more torque and longer life than brushed alternatives.
• Compatible with GBA80200 (2Ah) and GBA80400 (4Ah) batteries for varied runtimes.
• Tool-only package lets you pair with existing 80V batteries and chargers.
• Equivalent performance to many 26cc gas trimmers without fuel or fumes.

What attachments and accessories work with this powerhead?

This trimmer is built as an attachment-capable powerhead, so you can expand its functionality with a selection of Greenworks PAC attachments. Swapping attachments converts the trimmer into an edger, hedge trimmer, pole saw, cultivator, or blower for multi-tasked yard work.

• Works with PAC458 edger and PAC459 hedge trimmer for precision jobs.
• Accepts PAC460 polesaw and PAC461 cultivator for seasonal tasks.
• Compatible with PAC462 blower to clear clippings and debris.
• Attachment system simplifies tool changes without a separate engine unit.

How easy is it to use and maintain compared with gas models?

The Greenworks 80V trimmer is lightweight and ergonomically balanced, making it easier to maneuver and less tiring to operate than many gas units. Maintenance is minimal — no mixing, no spark plugs, and no oil changes — so the tool is ready instantly with a charged battery.

• Variable-speed trigger gives on-demand control for edging or heavy cutting.
• .080" dual-line bump feed head advances line quickly on the go.
• Die-cast gearbox provides durable gear engagement for heavy jobs.
• Virtually maintenance-free operation: no fuel, no oil, no emissions.

What cutting diameter and line specifications should I expect?

The trimmer offers a 14–16-inch effective cutting path depending on trimming conditions, using .080" dual-line bump-feed for efficient material removal. That size balances productivity and access around plants, fences, and hardscapes.

• 16" maximum cutting swath for faster coverage of open areas.
• Adjustable speed lets you reduce line wear near delicate plants or increase power for dense weeds.
• Slim head profile for better reach under shrubs and along borders.

Who is this for? Landscapers, property managers, and homeowners who want a robust cordless trimmer that can stand in for light commercial gas models will appreciate this tool-only Greenworks 80V unit. If you already own Greenworks 80V batteries and chargers, this powerhead upgrades your toolset with low-maintenance, high-torque performance and the flexibility to accept multiple attachments for year-round yard care.
