Brownells Standard Line Brush, .22 Caliber Handgun, Ss, 12 Pack

A .22 caliber handgun bore brush is one of those consumables that vanishes from your cleaning kit faster than you'd expect—which is exactly why Brownells packages these stainless steel brushes a dozen at a time. Whether you're a competition shooter running high round counts, a casual plinker who cleans between sessions, or a gunsmith who keeps a shop stocked, this 12-pack keeps you supplied without the constant reorder hassle. Made to the same quality standard as Brownells' individual brushes, they're built to handle the real work of removing fouling and buildup from .22 handgun bores.

What sets these apart from cheaper alternatives is the construction: each brush features a one-piece shank that's looped and wound in a single piece—not two lengths twisted together and cut off. That means better durability and consistent performance through repeated cleanings. The stainless steel bristles provide aggressive cleaning action useful for fouled, leaded, or heavily used bores. Keep in mind that stainless steel bristles are more aggressive than brass, so they're best reserved for deep cleaning rather than routine maintenance, as frequent use can accelerate bore wear.

At 2-1/8 inches long with standard 8-32 male threads, these brushes fit any cleaning rod with 8-32 female connections—the universal standard for most rifle and handgun cleaning equipment. Buy the 12-pack, keep a few in your range bag, another set in your cleaning kit at home, and you'll never be caught without a fresh brush when you need one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these brushes work with my cleaning rod?

Yes, provided your cleaning rod accepts 8-32 male threads. These are the standard threads used on nearly all modern rifle and handgun cleaning rods in the US market.

Are stainless steel brushes better than brass for .22 cleaning?

Stainless steel brushes offer more aggressive cleaning action, making them effective for removing heavy fouling, lead buildup, and rust. However, this aggression does accelerate bore wear with repeated use, so they're best used for occasional deep cleaning rather than routine maintenance on a regularly shot firearm.

Why buy a 12-pack instead of individual brushes?

The bulk pack is more economical per brush and practical for anyone who shoots regularly or maintains multiple firearms. It also ensures you always have a fresh brush on hand rather than discovering a worn-out one when you're ready to clean.

What's included in the pack?

The pack contains 12 stainless steel bore brushes for .22 handguns. No cleaning rod, solvent, or other accessories are included—just the brushes.
