PRODUCT INFORMATION
Description:
This double jointed loose ring snaffle provides a spiral-shaped, stainless steel roller in the middle of the mouthpiece. This roller encourages your horse to play with it and this ensures a higher tongue activity. As a result, your horse produces more saliva, which ensures better acceptance of the bit and a relaxed feeling.
Product Features:
The Sweet Iron bits are made of blue steel and create a sweet-tasting surface rust through contact with saliva. This sweet taste stimulates the natural production of saliva, which causes the horse to foam more at the mouth and to accept the bit better.
The anatomical design follows the shape of the horse’s mouth, creating a gentle and even pressure distribution. In the case of a double jointed bit, the mouthpiece consists of three parts. The middle section of the mouthpiece lies flat on the tongue. This causes more pressure on the tongue than a single jointed bit. The thicker the middle section, the more pressure it will create on the tongue.
The eggbutt snaffle has fixed cheek pieces, aids will therefore have a more direct effect. This type of bit is often easily accepted as it offers stability.
Maintenance:
If a Sweet Iron bit is not used for a while, an orange-brown rust layer might appear on the mouthpiece. This can be easily removed by wiping the bit with a damp cloth.
