Product Description
?This flexible drive shaft fits inside the drive shaft housing assembly to drive the cutting head. It is a genuine manufacturer approved replacement item that is specially designed for Weed Eater string trimmers. Eventually, the rounded ends will fail to engage the trimmer head.
