Oregon Star Line 3.0 mm × 212 m
Oregon's 3.0 mm five-edged star line on a 212 m spool — clean, aggressive cutting of tough grass and weeds on powerful petrol brush cutters.
In short:This Oregon Star line is 3.0 mm thick with a five-edged star profile, supplied as a 212 m donut-style spool in yellow. The edges slice tough grass and weed stems cleanly and reduce drag, while 3.0 mm thickness keeps it from snapping in rough growth. It suits powerful petrol brush cutters whose heads accept 3.0 mm line; on smaller machines it overloads the engine. Despite this page's address, it is star-profile, not twisted.

What it is
Oregon’s Star line in 3.0 mm, with a five-edged star profile, on a 212 m donut-style spool in yellow. (This page’s address calls it twisted; the product we link to is the star profile.) It was sold by Amazon when we checked in October 2026.
Why star and why 3 mm?
The five edges slice through stems for a clean, neat cut and reduce drag in tougher growth. The 3.0 mm thickness carries more mass, so it keeps cutting through coarse grass and weeds without breaking off. Together they make an aggressive line for overgrown ground. The trade-off: edged line wears faster against paths, walls and stones, where round 3 mm lasts longer.
Will it fit?
3.0 mm needs a powerful petrol engine and a head rated for that size, such as the Oregon Lightning Load Pro (up to 3 mm). Most smaller machines top out at 2.4 or 2.7 mm. See our line size guide.
Tips
Thick edged line can weld inside a hot spool: wind it evenly without over-filling, and soak it in water beforehand (line welding together). Compare all lines in the best brush cutter line.
