Breakthrough Clean Technologies® Square Cotton Patches — 3" x 3", 50-Pack | For 12–16 Gauge Shotguns | BT-CP-S-3-50 | BTCPS350 | UPC 854325008223

Clean big bores faster and more completely. The Breakthrough Clean Technologies Square Cotton Patches (3" x 3") are purpose-sized for 12–16 gauge shotguns, delivering maximum surface area, high absorbency, and low-lint performance for a bright, uniform bore. Whether you’re wrapping up a soggy waterfowl hunt or cycling through rounds at the clays course, this convenient 50-count pack gives you premium cotton coverage in fewer passes.

Why These 3" Shotgun Patches Stand Out

• Sized for smoothbores: The 3-inch square patch provides excellent bore contact in 12 ga and 16 ga barrels when paired with the correct patch holder or loop.

• High-absorbency cotton: Tight-weave fabric holds solvent and oil to lift plastic wad streaks, powder residue, and grime—then lays down a thin, even protective film.

• Low-lint finish: Designed to minimize fibers left behind, so you get a clean, mirror-like interior that patterns consistently.

• Uniform cut & thickness: Predictable drag and 360° coverage make patch/brush intervals faster and more repeatable.

• Grab-and-go quantity: 50 patches—perfect for range bags, blind bags, or quick resupply between trips.

Ideal Uses

• Sporting clays, skeet, and trap: Quick post-round wipe-downs to maintain pattern consistency.

• Upland & waterfowl: Remove moisture, grit, and organic debris after harsh weather hunts.

• Home-defense & duty shotguns: Routine maintenance for reliable cycling and extraction.

• Gunsmiths & club ranges: A premium, low-lint option for frequent cleanings.

Faster, Cleaner Results for Big Bores

Unlike smaller patches that require multiple folds, these 3" squares are ready to go—delivering the surface area your shotgun needs for efficient solvent delivery and debris removal. They flex into machining marks to lift wad fouling and moisture, helping you restore a smooth, protected bore with fewer strokes.

How to Use (Best Practices)

1. Unload & verify safe. Always check the chamber and magazine.

2. Pre-wet the bore. Apply a shotgun-safe solvent with a patch or mop; allow a short dwell time for stubborn plastic fouling.

3. Scrub (optional). Use a nylon or bronze brush to agitate heavy deposits.

4. Patch clean. Push 3" cotton patches from chamber to muzzle in full-length strokes until patches come out clean.

5. Protect. Finish with a lightly oiled patch to inhibit corrosion—especially after wet hunts.

Fit Tip: If a 3" patch feels overly tight with your holder, switch to a different patch loop/holder or fold once/trim a corner for a tailored fit. Rods and holders vary by brand.

Storage & Care

• Keep patches dry and sealed to preserve absorbency.

• Store away from open solvent/oil to avoid accidental pre-saturation.

• Allow used solvent patches to air out before disposal; follow local guidelines.
