Will the Kleenbore ACC10 patch holder fit my standard Australian-purchased cleaning rod?

Yes, the ACC10 features an industry-standard #8-32 male thread, making it fully compatible with most standard cleaning rods and pull-through cables available in Australia, such as Kleenbore, Pro-Shot, Dewey, and Hoppe's. If you are using a European rod with metric threads, you will simply need a thread adaptor.

Can I use this patch holder for my .17 HMR or .204 Ruger rifle?

No, the ACC10 has a minimum calibre floor of .22 calibre and will not pass through sub-calibre bores below that threshold. For smaller calibres like .17 HMR or .204 Ruger, you will need dedicated sub-calibre cleaning attachments that typically utilise smaller #5-40 threads.

How does the black oxide carbon steel finish hold up against harsh bore solvents in outback conditions?

The black oxide carbon steel construction offers high tensile strength to prevent bending or stripping under heavy force, unlike softer brass or polymer tips. While the steel is resistant to standard gun cleaning solvents, the outback humidity and harsh environments mean you should ensure the patch holder is wiped dry and lightly oiled for storage to protect the finish.

Steel Patch Holder - KleenBore ACC10

The KleenBore ACC10 .22–.45 Calibre Patch Holder is a firearm maintenance tool designed to retain fabric cleaning patches for swabbing, applying solvents or lubricants, and dry-wiping the bores of rifles and handguns. Manufactured from carbon steel with a black oxide finish, it offers enhanced rigidity and resistance to bending or thread stripping compared to softer brass or polymer slotted tips. It utilizes an industry-standard #8-32 male thread to ensure broad compatibility with standard cleaning rods and pull-through systems used across Australia.

Key Features

Slotted Tip Design: Features an elongated eyelet to securely hold fabric patches for pushing or pulling solvent and dry patches through the firearm bore.
Carbon Steel Construction: Finished in protective black oxide to resist chemical solvents and prevent bending under force during routine bore maintenance.
Universal Thread Fitment: Equipped with a standard #8-32 male thread that connects directly to compatible cleaning rods and cables without adaptors.
Multi-Calibre Utility: Engineered to service a wide operating envelope spanning from .22 calibre up to .45 calibre bores.

Who is the Kleenbore 22-45 Caliber #8-32 Black Oxide Steel Patch Holder for?

Centre-fire rifle shooters performing routine bore maintenance — uses an industry-standard #8-32 male thread to attach to standard cleaning rods for swabbing and drying rifle barrels spanning from a .22 calibre floor up to .45 calibre.
Handgun owners cleaning .22 to .45 calibre pistols — features a rigid black oxide carbon steel slotted design that retains solvent patches across pistol barrels ranging from .22 calibre up to a .45 calibre ceiling without bending.

Less suitable for: Firearm barrels smaller than the .22 calibre minimum threshold (such as .17 HMR, .17 Hornet, or .204 Ruger), which require dedicated sub-calibre patch holders with smaller #5-40 threads, or bores exceeding .45 calibre, which require larger gauge-specific slotted holders or 5/16-27 threaded accessories.
