Fager’s Rubber Bits; For a Softer, Steadier Connection
Designed for sensitive horses, the Andrea Soft Rubber Bit encourages a more consistent contact and helps your horse confidently seek the bit. Its gentle feel promotes softness in the hand, making every signal smoother and more refined.

This bit is ideal for a range of horses, especially those that benefit from a gentler, softer bit:

* Young or green horses
Great for horses who need to learn how to trust the bit, as it encourages acceptance and reduces tension.

* Horses that avoid or resist contact
The soft rubber encourages them to seek the bit, promoting a steadier connection confidently.

* Horses with a dry or reactive mouth
The material promotes softness and salivation, improving comfort and focus.

* Rehabilitation or retraining cases
Ideal when rebuilding trust or working through bit-related tension or behavioural issues.

 

Andrea Soft Rubber Bit – Designed for Comfort, Built for Performance
Give your horse the comfort it deserves with the Andrea Soft Rubber Bit – a modern solution for riders seeking gentle, soft communication.

This mouthpiece has a small tongue relief to be more gentle to the tongue. The small tongue relief, combined with the gentle material, makes this bit a suitable option for horses with a sensitive tongue who can open their mouth, pull the reins, and move the tongue freely.

Material
Crafted from premium TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane), this bit combines the softness of rubber with the strength and durability needed for everyday riding. TPU is known for its exceptional flexibility, durability, and horse-safe properties, making it ideal for sensitive-mouthed horses and those needing a steadier contact.

Why TPU?
* Gentle on the Mouth – Soft, rubber-like feel that encourages relaxation and trust.
* Highly Durable – Resists wear, cracking, and moisture for long-lasting use.
* Safe & Non-toxic – TPU is hygienic, easy to clean, and free from harmful chemicals.

Tailored to Your Horse’s Needs

Two Hardness Levels:
* Soft (light green color) – for young or sensitive horses who benefit from a milder feel.
* Hard (dark green color) – for horses needing clearer signals with slightly more structure.

Two Thickness Options:
Choose the ideal thickness for your horse’s mouth conformation and riding style.

Whether you’re developing a young horse or refining the connection with an experienced partner, the Andrea Soft Rubber Bit supports a softer contact, better communication, and total comfort – every ride, every time.

NOTE! The TPU material is more durable than most rubber bits, but it can still show marks from the teeth of horses that chew excessively on the bit. The bit is therefore not covered by warranty or right of complaint if the damage has occurred due to the horse biting the bit.
Please note: Soft rubber may lose its shape if left hanging for long periods or stored in a warm environment. For best care, keep the bit in a cool place. If reshaping is needed, it can easily be adjusted back into form.
