AT 1450 – ALPHASHIELD BORE COAT
AT 1450 is the ultimate protective coating for gun bores. It is easy to apply and creates a micron thin, protective ceramic coating on the bore. AT 1450 creates a permanent, significant reduction in fouling (jacket, powder, lead, plastic wad, carbon) thereby reducing maintenance while maximizing the performance and longevity of your weapon. The coating is so thin that it will not negatively impact velocity, point of impact, or group size. Coated bores will need cleaning significantly less often and cleaning itself is much easier. AT 1450 protects against both galvanic and chemical corrosion. A single application will last the useful life of the bore for many firearms. AT 1450 is effective on all types of firearms including rifles, handguns, shotguns and muzzle-loaders.
Proudly manufactured in the USA.
- High performance, ambient air cured coating with easy wipe-on application.
- Creates a covalent bond to the substrate to become a permanent part of the metallic structure.
- Ultra-thin application will not negatively impact velocity or point of impact.
- Extremely tough & durable for long lasting high performance.
- Extreme high temperature resistance, including to direct flame.
- Excellent corrosion resistance, highly hydrophobic and stops carbon fouling.
- Dry lubrication properties work with or without the use of oil.
- With proper application, a single application will last the useful life of the bore.
- RoHS and REACH compliant.

AT 1450 does not require the additional use of lubricating oil. Oil may be applied without harming the AT 1450 coating.
Gun bores on almost any type of firearm including rifles, handguns, shotguns and muzzle-loaders.
