EGO’s STX4200 String Trimmer Gives You a Reason to Upgrade

EGO users, plus all those in the market for a new string trimmer, this is your moment.

The EGO Pro X STX4200 16.5-Inch String Trimmer brings commercial trimming performance to the 56V battery platform you may already own. EGO rates its 1,000W brushless motor as equivalent in power to a 28cc gas engine, giving you a cordless option for demanding trimming jobs.

Think fence lines, grass around posts, landscaping borders and the areas your mower leaves behind. If you maintain several properties or have a larger yard with plenty of obstacles, those finishing passes add up.

1. A 16.5-inch cutting swath covers a wide strip of grass with each pass.
2. Three selectable speeds—4,000, 5,000 and 6,000 RPM, let you choose a setting for the work.
3. A Rapid Reload head makes replacing worn line easier.
4. Support for .095- and .105-inch line gives you options for different trimming conditions.
5. A carbon fiber shaft combines strength with lightweight construction.

For existing EGO users, battery compatibility is a big reason to take a look. The STX4200 works with EGO 56V ARC Lithium batteries, so compatible packs you already own can go to work in this trimmer. This is a bare tool, with the battery and charger purchased separately.

New to EGO? You get battery-powered trimming without refueling a gas engine, plus a battery platform you can build around. A compatible EGO 56V battery can also power other tools, making it useful when you add a blower, mower or hedge trimmer later.

My strongest picks for this trimmer would be professional landscapers, grounds crews and homeowners who spend considerable time trimming. The commercial design, wide cutting path and selectable speeds make sense for frequent use.

1. EGO 5.0Ah ARC Lithium Battery, BA2800T. My starting pick for regular yard maintenance or as a spare to swap in while another pack charges.
2. EGO 7.5Ah ARC Lithium Battery, BA4200T. Consider this for longer trimming sessions when you want more battery capacity.
3. EGO 5.0Ah Battery and Standard Charger Starter Kit, SKA2800T. A convenient choice for your first EGO purchase because it supplies both the battery and charger this bare tool needs.

Already have compatible EGO batteries? This should be your next addition to the EGO collection. Starting fresh? Pair it with the starter kit and begin building your setup.
