The Breakthrough Clean Carbon Fiber Cleaning Rod at 45 inches is built for 12 gauge shotguns, made by Breakthrough Clean Technologies with the same rotating, ergonomic aluminum handle used across the carbon fiber rod lineup (brand part no. BT-CFRR-S45). The extra length over the 39-inch rifle rod matches longer shotgun barrels for a full breech-to-muzzle pass without needing extension sections. Carbon fiber construction stays rigid against fouling, and the handle rotates freely so the rod moves naturally through the bore instead of scrubbing in a fixed line. A standard #8-32 thread accepts jags, brushes, and other Breakthrough Clean attachments.
