Worx String Trimmer Parts

Worx String Trimmer Parts & Repair Guides

Worx string trimmers are solid budget-friendly tools, but like all gas-powered equipment, they need the right replacement parts when wear hits. Carburetors clogged from ethanol fuel, worn trimmer heads, and snapped throttle cables are the most common fixes we see. The good news: these parts are affordable and usually quick to replace yourself.

When ordering Worx trimmer parts, always have your model number handy — it's printed on the engine housing or main housing. Different Worx models use different fuel line sizes, spark plug types, and trimmer head configurations, so the model number ensures you get the exact fit.

• Trimmer heads / spools: line jams or won't feed; measure the arbor size and line diameter for your model
• Carburetors & carburetor kits: hard start, won't run, or runs rough; ethanol damage to fuel system
• Spark plugs: maintenance and seasonally; check your manual for correct heat range
• Fuel lines & primer bulbs: cracked or clogged from stale fuel; complete fuel system overhaul recommended
• Recoil starters: pull cord stuck or won't recoil; starter assembly replacement

Worx String Trimmer Parts: Common Questions

What causes a Worx string trimmer to not start?

The most common culprit is a dirty or clogged carburetor from ethanol fuel sitting too long in the tank. If the engine cranks but won't ignite, check the spark plug first — if it's fouled or gapped wrong, replace it. If the spark plug is good, the carburetor needs cleaning or replacement. A carburetor rebuild kit is often cheaper than a full replacement and solves 80% of starting issues.

How do I find my Worx trimmer model number?

The model number is printed on a label on the engine housing, the main body near the fuel tank, or sometimes on the underside of the shaft guard. It typically starts with "WG" (Worx brand code) followed by numbers like WG163 or WG180. Write it down before ordering parts — it ensures you get the exact trimmer head size, spark plug type, and carburetor that fits your model.

Why does my Worx trimmer trimmer head keep jamming?

Jammed line usually means you're using the wrong line diameter for your head, or the spool is wound too tightly. Check your manual for the correct line size (.065" or.080" diameter). If the head itself is cracked or the automatic feed mechanism is broken, replace the entire trimmer head assembly — Worx heads are inexpensive and much more reliable than trying to repair a damaged one.

How often should I replace the spark plug and fuel line?

Replace the spark plug every season (spring before heavy use). Fuel lines should be inspected annually and replaced if you see cracks or brittle spots. If you store your trimmer with fuel in the tank for more than 30 days, drain the tank and run fresh fuel through the carburetor — stale ethanol fuel is the #1 cause of starting problems.

Worx String Trimmer Model Number: Where to Look

Worx places the model number on a label attached to the main housing, often near the fuel tank, though some string trimmers have it on the underside of the shaft guard. Look for a code beginning with "WG," then write down every letter and number exactly as shown. Enter that code in the model number search, and the catalog will narrow to parts matched to your complete trimmer, not just one part. This helps account for differences in trimmer heads, fuel-system parts, electrical parts, and other assemblies between models. With the correct model selected, you can compare compatible options quickly and avoid ordering parts that do not fit.
