## Overview

The Tipton Deluxe Cleaning Rod is a 40-inch, .22-.26 caliber carbon fiber rod designed for professional-grade firearm maintenance. Featuring an ergonomic handle with dual ball bearings, it smoothly follows rifling under pressure without scratching the bore. Its carbon fiber construction offers extreme flexibility and durability, making it a trusted choice for military armorers and serious gun enthusiasts alike. Available in multiple sizes and backed by a limited lifetime warranty, it’s the ultimate tool for precision cleaning and gunsmithing.

## Description

US military armorers called on Tipton to provide cleaning rods that would clean service rifles in demanding conditions. Carbon fiber is well-suited to the tough tasks assigned to cleaning rods. It combines the best features of stainless steel and coated cleaning rods, then adds valuable properties of its own. Carbon fiber can't scratch your bore like stainless steel and won't embed like coated rods. Carbon fiber rods can be bent to an extreme degree and return to their original straightness. These cleaning rods are "deluxe" because they feature an ergonomically designed handle that spins on two sets of ball bearings - the result is a cleaning rod that smoothly follows the rifling both pushing and pulling, even while under pressure. The "shank-through" construction also allows the user to apply "reasonable" hammer blows to the end of the cleaning rod to get a tight patch through a bore.

Review: Great Tool - Perfect. Works great in my 16 in AR
Review: High Quality - Highly recommend very sturdy and probably will never have to buy another one. The handles ball bearings feel great.

Tipton rods are the best. This one included. Throw away those aluminum rods that screw together, and unscrew as you're trying to use them.
