Will this jag fit my standard Australian cleaning rod?

The Kleenbore JAG233 features standard American 5/16"-27 shotgun threading. If you are using standard Australian or British rods that use metric or #8-32 rifle/pistol threads, you will need a thread adapter to fit this jag properly.

Can I use this jag for a 12-gauge or a .410 bore shotgun?

No, this model is precision-machined exclusively for 16-gauge and 20-gauge shotgun bores. For a 12-gauge shotgun, it will not provide adequate bore contact and you will need the Kleenbore JAG234 variant, while it is far too large to chamber in a .410 bore.

How does the barbed point design prevent patches from slipping?

The jag features KleenBore's proprietary pointed tip equipped with a retention barb that physically punctures and grips the cleaning patch. This securely holds both dry and solvent-soaked patches in place, preventing them from slipping off when pushed down the barrel during routine maintenance in the field or at the range.

Shotgun Cleaning Jag - KleenBore JAG233

The Kleenbore 16-20 Gauge Barbed Pointed Aluminum Jag is a dedicated bore-cleaning attachment designed for shotgun maintenance. Precision-machined from lightweight aluminum, this jag features a barbed, pointed tip that pierces and retains cleaning patches, preventing them from slipping off during deep bore cleaning. Sized specifically to fit 16-gauge and 20-gauge barrels, it presses cleaning patches uniformly against the full 360-degree circumference of the bore walls to effectively remove carbon fouling, plastic wad residue, and lead build-up.

Key Features

Barbed Retention Point: Features a pointed tip with a retention barb that secures dry or solvent-soaked patches to eliminate bunching or slipping inside the barrel.
360-Degree Wall Contact: Conforms draped cleaning patches evenly against the internal bore walls for uniform solvent application and residue removal.
Precision-Machined Aluminum Construction: Delivers durable, lightweight operation tailored to smoothbore cleaning tasks.
American Shotgun Threading: Fitted with standard 5/16"-27 male threads to screw directly into standard shotgun cleaning rods.

Technical Specifications

Calibre/Gauge Compatibility: 16 Gauge and 20 Gauge shotguns
Material: Precision-machined aluminum
Thread Interface: 5/16"-27 male shotgun thread
Operation: Manual / unpowered

Who is the Kleenbore 16-20 Gauge Barbed Pointed Aluminum Jag for?

16-gauge shotgun owners performing routine bore maintenance — Delivers uniform 360-degree patch contact across 16 Gauge bores using a precision-machined aluminum shotgun jag fitted with standard 5/16"-27 threads.
20-gauge shotgun owners conducting post-range carbon and plastic fouling removal — Uses a barbed retaining tip sized for 20 Gauge barrels to securely hold solvent patches and strip stubborn plastic wad fouling without slipping off the cleaning rod.

Less suitable for: 12-gauge shotgun cleaning, where this profile is too narrow to achieve complete wall contact (a dedicated 12-gauge jag is required), or .410 bore, rifle, and handgun maintenance where the wider diameter will not chamber and the 5/16"-27 thread does not fit standard #8-32 female rod threads (smaller calibre-specific brass jags are required).
