KROME UNIVERSAL CLEANING KIT
Shop this product — this Krome kit is priced at $40.49 and comes in a molded toolbox that keeps every piece secure and ready for field or range maintenance.
What’s inside the Krome UNIVERSAL CLEANING KIT
This 37-piece kit is designed to cover a broad spectrum of calibers and gauges without clutter. Key components include two brass rods (one dedicated to shotgun use and one sized for rifles and pistols), an array of cotton swabs sized for .270, .30, .38-.357, .410 bore, 12 gauge, and 20 gauge, plus a comprehensive set of brushes and slotted tips. The brushes cover .17, .22, .270, .30, .38-.357, .40, .45, .410 bore, 12 gauge, and 20 gauge. Slotted tips are provided for .22, .30, .357, and shotguns, and the kit also includes a .17 caliber adapter and a shotgun adapter for flexible threading and attachment.
Why these parts matter
Brass rods reduce the risk of scoring a barrel compared to steel, while having a dedicated shotgun rod prevents cross-contamination between shotgun and rifle threads. The assortment of cotton swabs and brushes lets you match cleaning tools to bore diameter for efficient solvent distribution and scrubbing action. Slotted tips allow for patch-based cleaning in mid-to-large calibers, and the .17 adapter provides coverage for small varmint calibers where access and precision matter.
How the kit fits practical needs
Field operators and recreational shooters alike will appreciate the molded toolbox. It keeps 37 pieces organized and easy to access, making quick touch-ups between strings of fire fast and uncomplicated. The presence of both shotgun and rifle/pistol rods means you won’t have to improvise adapters in a pinch.
Use cases by platform
Rifles (.270, .30, .17, .22): Use the rifle/pistol rod with the appropriately sized brush (.270, .30, .17, or .22) followed by a slotted tip and cotton patches sized for the caliber. The included .30 cotton swabs and .270 swabs mean you can clean common hunting chambers end-to-end without improvisation.
Pistols (.38-.357, .40, .45): The brush set includes .38-.357, .40, and .45 sizes to handle common self-defense and competition pistols. The brass rod provides a consistent, safe shaft for pushing brushes and patches without marring your barrel crown.
Shotguns (12 gauge, 20 gauge, .410 bore): The kit supplies a dedicated shotgun rod, brushes for 12 and 20 gauge plus .410 bore, slotted tips for shotgun patching, and a shotgun adapter. Those pieces are essential for removing powder residue and maintaining consistent shot patterns.
Step-by-step field cleaning routine
1. Quick bore inspection and dry pass
Push a bore brush through the barrel to dislodge loose debris. Use the correct brush size and follow the bore direction from breech to muzzle to avoid damage to the crown. The kit’s varied brushes allow precise matching.
2. Solvent and scrubbing
Apply solvent to a cotton patch or directly to the brush, run through the bore several times, then swap to a dry swab. The slotted tips and cotton swabs for .270, .30, and other sizes help ensure you’re not leaving solvent puddles in the chamber.
3. Final patches and lubrication
Finish with dry patches until they come out clean, then apply a light coat of protective oil on a final patch. Use the appropriate slotted tip for larger calibers and the small cotton swabs in smaller bores for an even finish.

Practical tips from the range
Keep rods clean and dry
Wipe your brass rods after solvent use to prevent solvent build-up in the threads. Use the shotgun-specific rod only for shotguns — it reduces thread wear and keeps your rifle threads clean.
Match brush to fouling
Use bronze or nylon brushes for carbon and copper fouling respectively, and follow up with appropriate patches. The Krome kit’s broad brush selection lets you target the most common fouling types across platforms.
The KROME UNIVERSAL CLEANING KIT is a compact, well-rounded option for multi-platform shooters who want an organized set of tools without breaking the bank. Click Check current availability to purchase directly from our shop page and secure one before your next trip to the range.
