TAPCO TAP22013 AR-15 Chamber Cleaning Brush - .223/5.56 Caliber

The TAPCO TAP22013 chamber brush delivers thorough cleaning for AR-15 rifles chambered in .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO. This specialized cleaning tool removes carbon buildup and fouling from the chamber area that standard bore brushes cannot reach effectively.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard bore brushes that only clean the barrel, this chamber-specific brush features angled bristles designed to scrub the chamber walls and extension area. The brush head geometry matches AR-15 chamber dimensions precisely, ensuring complete contact with fouled surfaces. Standard cleaning rods often miss critical areas where carbon accumulates after extended firing sessions.

Key Features

• Chamber-specific design for .223/5.56 AR-15 platforms
• Bronze bristles resist corrosion and maintain stiffness
• 8-32 thread pattern fits standard cleaning rods
• Angled bristle configuration reaches chamber extension
• Compact 1.2-inch brush head diameter
• Heat-treated steel core prevents bristle shedding

This brush excels during routine maintenance after range sessions or competition events. The bronze bristles effectively remove powder residue and carbon deposits without scratching chamber surfaces. Military and law enforcement armorers rely on chamber brushes for depot-level cleaning protocols. The tool proves essential for maintaining accuracy and reliability in high-volume shooting applications.
