Breakthrough Clean Technologies® Bore Mop — .40 Cal / 10mm, Retail Packaging (BT-40BM • BT40BM • UPC 855525007528)
Give your handgun bore a spotless finish in seconds. The Breakthrough Clean Technologies Bore Mop for .40 caliber / 10mm pistols is a high-absorption swab designed to pull out solvent, loosened fouling, and moisture after brushing—leaving rifling clean and ready for a light protective oil. Caliber-specific sizing ensures full-contact swabbing in popular platforms like Glock 20/22/23/40/41, Smith & Wesson M&P .40, SIG Sauer P320 .40, 1911 10mm, and more. Packed in retail packaging for clean storage and easy identification, it’s the perfect final step in any cleaning routine.
Why This .40/10mm Bore Mop
Caliber-correct fit: Sized precisely for .40 S&W and 10mm Auto bores to maximize contact, speed up swabbing, and reduce the number of passes.
High-absorption fibers: Dense cotton-style fibers soak up solvent and residue efficiently to leave the bore dry and debris-free.
Finish-friendly: Non-marring construction is gentle on stainless, carbon steel, nitride, and coated barrels when used as directed.
Ideal final step: Use after bronze/nylon brushing and wet patches to capture suspended grime before a light oil pass.
Standard thread compatibility: Built for common handgun rod threads (typically 8-32)—quick to attach at the bench or range.
Retail packaged: Sealed pack keeps the mop clean, organized, and easy to spot in your kit.
Pro Tip: Brush → wet patch → .40/10mm bore mop until clean → finish with a very light oil pass for storage (wipe dry before live fire).

Mop the bore. Thread on the .40/10mm bore mop and swab from chamber to muzzle.
Repeat as needed. Alternate wet/dry mop passes until clean.
Protect. If storing, apply a light oil pass; wipe the bore dry before shooting.
Always follow your firearm manufacturer’s cleaning guidance. Avoid excess oil in the bore or chamber.
Care & Maintenance
Rinse & air-dry: After use, wash with mild soap/warm water; squeeze (don’t wring) and let dry thoroughly.
Dedicate tools: Keep separate mops for solvent and oil to prevent chemical mixing.
Replace when worn: Swap out when fibers are matted, thin, or shedding for best performance.
Compatibility Notes
Rod threads: Most handgun rods use 8-32; some kits differ—use a thread adapter if needed.
Finish safety: Safe for common barrel finishes when used correctly; avoid aggressive twisting in tight throats.
Solvent friendly: Works with popular gun solvents/CLPs; rinse after ammonia-based cleaners.
