Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

Hoppes has been in the gun care game since 1903, and the Bench Rest 3PSS rod is a solid piece of that legacy. It is built from high-grade stainless steel, which shrugs off moisture and stands up to the solvents and oils you throw at it during a cleaning session. The three-piece design threads together for full-length rifle and shotgun work, then breaks apart into short segments that stash easily in a range bag or workbench drawer. One rod covers a lot of ground here, working across pistols, rifles, and shotguns chambered .22 caliber and larger.
The standout feature is the ball-bearing swivel handle. As you push a patch or brush down the barrel, the handle lets the rod rotate freely and follow the bore's rifling instead of fighting against it. That means less binding, smoother strokes, and a cleaner pass through the lands and grooves. Owners consistently point to that swivel action and the lightweight-but-sturdy feel as the reasons they reach for this one over a stiff single-piece rod.
The rod runs the standard 8-32 thread, so it plays nice with the huge lineup of Hoppes and universal brushes, jags, and mops already out there. It ships with slotted patch ends for running cleaning patches and a shotgun adapter that converts the tip over to shotgun-thread accessories. Between those two, you can go from scrubbing a .223 bore to swabbing a 12-gauge without hunting down extra parts.
If you want one rod that handles most of the safe, this is an easy pick. It is simple, proven, and backed by a name that has been cleaning barrels for over a century.
It is a universal rod designed for .22 caliber and larger, covering most pistols, rifles, and shotguns. The included slotted ends handle rifle and pistol bores, and the shotgun adapter opens it up to shotgun accessories. If your firearm is smaller than .22 caliber, you will want a dedicated rimfire-specific rod instead.
Yes. The rod uses the standard 8-32 thread, which is the same size Hoppes and most universal cleaning accessories use. That means your existing brushes, jags, and mops in that thread should thread right on.
That is the ball-bearing swivel, and it is intentional. As you run the rod through a rifled barrel, the swivel lets the tip rotate and follow the twist of the rifling rather than dragging against it. The result is smoother strokes and less binding while you clean.
The segments thread together tightly for a solid feel during normal cleaning, and stainless steel keeps it stiff and durable. The big upside of the three-piece setup is portability, since it breaks down small enough for a range bag. For most routine maintenance it holds up fine, though dedicated bench shooters chasing precision sometimes prefer a coated one-piece rod for delicate bores.
