Hoppe's 1324 40/45 Caliber Cleaning Swab - 10 Pack

Keeping your .40 and .45 caliber handguns running clean and accurate means using the right tools for the job. Hoppe's 1324 40/45 Caliber Cleaning Swabs are purpose-built patches designed to work with standard handgun and rifle rod threaded attachments, making them a reliable choice for serious shooters who maintain their own firearms. Whether you're swabbing out fouling after a range session or running a final dry patch before storage, these swabs handle the task efficiently without leaving lint or fibers behind.

Built from soft, absorbent material, Hoppe's swabs are engineered to carry fouling out of the bore and to distribute solvents and lubricants evenly throughout the barrel. The 10-pack gives you enough patches for multiple cleaning sessions or to stock your range bag and home workbench. These swabs fit handgun and rifle rods with 8-32 thread, the industry standard for most modern cleaning rod attachments.

Whether you shoot semi-auto pistols, revolvers, or rifles in these popular calibers, Hoppe's swabs are a foundational part of any serious shooter's maintenance kit. Keep them on hand for post-range cleanings, regular maintenance, or field care when you're away from home. Pair them with your favorite Hoppe's solvents and oils for a complete cleaning system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these swabs fit my cleaning rod?

Yes, these swabs are designed for standard 8-32 thread handgun and rifle cleaning rods, which is the most common threading on modern firearms cleaning kits. If you're unsure about your rod's threading, check the product documentation or contact us.

Can I use these swabs for other calibers?

These swabs are specifically designed for .40 and .45 caliber barrels. Using them in significantly different bore sizes may not provide optimal cleaning results.

What's the best way to use cleaning swabs?

After applying your preferred solvent to the bore, attach a swab to your cleaning rod and run it through several times to lift fouling and distribute the cleaner. Finish with dry swabs to remove excess solvent before applying lubricant or storing the firearm.
