BR Watertrens Sweet Iron Curved enkel gebroken 14mm

Product description

This single jointed snaffle snaffle is made of solid stainless steel rings and a mild steel mouthpiece combined with a sweet iron layer on the mouthpiece (blue). The sweet iron coating on the mouthpiece stimulates the production of saliva. When this material reacts with moisture, heat and air it will oxidize and develop a sweet tasting surface rust. This helps with the acceptance of the bit. Eventually the blue color disappears, but the taste of the surface rust remains.

The anatomical design follows the shape of the horse's mouth, creating a soft and even pressure distribution. The mouthpiece of a single jointed snaffle hinges at one point. It acts on the tongue, layers, corners of the mouth and sometimes on the palate of the horse. When a rein aid is given, the bit takes on a V-shape. Because this mouthpiece has only one hinge point, the tongue is freer than, for example, a double jointed bit. The mouthpiece has a thickness of 14 mm and the bit rings have a diameter of 65 mm.

A loose snaffle is a bit with loose bit rings. This type of bit is generally well accepted because the mouthpiece is relatively loose in the mouth.
