The KleenBore A175 Bore Brush delivers precision cleaning for .17 and .177 caliber rifles and air rifles with phosphor bronze bristles that remove fouling without damaging barrel surfaces. This specialized cleaning tool features #3-48 threading for secure attachment to standard cleaning rods.
What Makes This Different
Phosphor bronze bristles provide the optimal balance between aggressive cleaning action and barrel protection, unlike steel brushes that can cause wear or nylon brushes that lack sufficient scrubbing power. The precise .17/.177 caliber sizing ensures proper bore contact without excessive force. Each brush undergoes quality control testing to verify bristle density and thread integrity.
