The KleenBore SHO1220 Classic 12/20 Gauge Shotgun Cleaning Kit gives you everything needed to maintain both 12 and 20 gauge shotguns in a single, well-organized package. Whether you're running a Benelli, Mossberg, Remington, or any other common shotgun, this kit eliminates the need to hunt down individual cleaning tools—it's all here, ready to go. Built around a sturdy three-piece aluminum cleaning rod with the larger diameter required for shotgun barrels, it's designed for hunters and sport shooters who want straightforward, effective maintenance without the hassle.
The kit includes purpose-built brushes for both gauges: phosphor bronze bore brushes sized specifically for 12 and 20 gauge barrels, plus a double-end nylon bristle brush that handles general cleaning duties. A slotted patch holder accepts shotgun patches for final bore polishing, and you get a supply of cotton patches to get started. The 32-inch aluminum rod breaks down into three pieces for easy storage and portability, and the included reusable carrying case keeps everything organized in the safe or truck bed.
You'll also find a 2 oz. bottle of BreakFree CLP—a proven penetrating oil and light lubricant—and a silicone cloth for wiping down metal surfaces. Everything here is straightforward, durable, and made in the USA, which means you're buying from a company with a long track record in firearm maintenance. If you run multiple shotguns or want a complete kit that covers both common gauges without buying separate tools, this is a no-fuss solution.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this kit work with my 28 gauge or 410 shotgun?
The kit is specifically designed for 12 and 20 gauge shotguns and includes brushes for those gauges. However, the aluminum rod accepts all shotgun-diameter accessories, including those for 10, 16, 28, and 410 gauges, so you can use additional compatible brushes if needed. For full cleaning capability on 28 or 410, you would need to source brushes in those gauges separately.
What's included in the box?
You get the three-piece aluminum cleaning rod, phosphor bronze bore brushes for 12 and 20 gauge, a double-end nylon bristle brush, a slotted patch holder, shotgun cotton cleaning patches, a 2 oz. bottle of BreakFree CLP, a silicone cloth, and a reusable carrying case.
Can I use this rod with brush and patch accessories from other brands?
Yes, the rod features #5/16-27 American Standard threads, which is the universal standard for shotgun cleaning rod attachments. Any shotgun brush or patch holder with that thread will fit.
Is this kit suitable for both hunting and range shooting?
Absolutely. This kit provides the basic tools for routine maintenance and deep cleaning of 12 and 20 gauge shotguns regardless of how you use them—whether at the range, in the field, or at home.
