Swab-its® 12 Gauge Bore-tips® Gun Cleaning Foam Swabs
Swab-its® 12 Gauge Bore-tips® are reusable, lint-free shotgun barrel cleaning foam swabs engineered for superior bore cleaning performance and complete 360-degree bore contact. Designed specifically for 12 gauge shotguns, these caliber-specific Bore-tips® spread solvents and lubricants more evenly than traditional cotton patches and mops without leaving behind lint, fibers, or residue.
The non-abrasive foam construction safely cleans shotgun bores while helping reduce patch waste and improving solvent distribution throughout the barrel. Unlike traditional cleaning patches, Bore-tips® can safely be run in both directions through the bore for more efficient firearm maintenance.
Their absorbent foam design requires less solvent and lubricant during cleaning while delivering consistent contact throughout the bore surface.
In addition to shotgun cleaning, the 12 Gauge Bore-tips® are also an excellent fit for cleaning .30 caliber rifle chambers and receivers, making them a versatile firearm maintenance tool for shooters and gunsmiths.
Beyond firearm applications, Bore-tips® cylindrical foam applicators are used in engine and powertrain environments to clean, wipe, and apply fluids inside precision-machined bores where contamination control and surface protection are critical.
The 12ga size is ideal for oil passages, lifter bores, and cylinder bores requiring uniform 360-degree contact without scratching or leaving behind fibers or contamination.
Made from lint-free foam, Bore-tips® support contamination-sensitive engine assembly and rebuild processes where repeatability and surface protection matter.
Proudly Made in the USA.
