VFG Adapter

The VFG Adapter is the connection between the cleaning rod and the felt cleaner. It fits all VFG cleaning rods and has an M5 external thread and 1/8" internal thread. The adapter is designed to hold two felt cleaning elements. The first felt cleaner is screwed onto the wooden screw thread and is thus held firmly on the adapter. By moving the cleaning rod back and forth, you can polish, oil, de-oil, etc. the barrel. At the end of the thread, there is a sloping shoulder. When the felt cleaner is further screwed onto this shoulder, it expands slightly in diameter, so it fits tighter in the barrel. Although this requires more effort when pushing through, it increases the friction resistance and thus the cleaning effect. The second felt cleaner is pushed onto the metric fine thread so that it can be stripped off at the muzzle edge when it is dirty while retracting the cleaning rod.
