Tipton Deluxe Carbon Fiber Cleaning Rod 40" 27-45 Caliber

Carbon fiber is well-suited to the demanding tasks that cleaning rods are tasked with. It's a mix of stainless steel and coated cleaning rods' greatest attributes Then it adds its own valuable features.

If used irresponsibly, stainless steel rods can scratch or wear barrels, but they won't pick up potentially dangerous small abrasive particles. Part of the task is done with "coated" rods: they keep the stainless steel shaft from harming your barrel's rifling, but the coating will gather up minute abrasive particles, effectively turning your bore into fine-grit sandpaper.

​​​Carbon fiber rods are the best of both worlds since they will not damage your bore like stainless steel and will not embed like coated rods. Carbon Fiber rods may also be bent to a great degree and then straightened out again. During Operation Iraqi Freedom, US military armorers requested Tipton's cleaning rods to clean service weapons under extreme conditions. Carbon fiber is an excellent material for cleaning rods, so it made sense to us.

These cleaning rods are referred to as "deluxe" because they have an ergonomically constructed handle that spins on two sets of ball bearings, resulting in a cleaning rod that follows the rifling smoothly while pushing and pulling, even while under pressure. The "shank-through" design also enables the user to employ "reasonable" hammer blows on the cleaning rod's end to produce a tight patch through a bore.
