D-Ring Snaffle double jointed 13.5 cm 16mm solid

D-Snaffle double jointed 13.5 cm 16mm solid

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at its thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. This makes it a rather medium-strength mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and especially large warmbloods, cold bloods and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

When selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

Biemann de Haas bits are selected with the greatest care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Biemann de Haas D-Snaffle double jointed 13.5 cm 16mm solid bit in more detail today:

The D-Snaffle double jointed 13.5 cm 16mm solid bit is made of stainless steel and equipped with D-shaped rings as cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed. The bit has a size of 13.5 centimeters.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece size 13.5cm is usually ideal for smaller and normal warmbloods.

Cheekpiece

D-Ring

Due to the characteristics of this bit, it is wonderfully suited for young, somewhat inexperienced horses. The shape and weight of the side pieces ensure a quiet and comfortable position in the mouth. Due to the shape of the D-shaped rings, optimal lateral support is provided. Good and quiet rein guidance is facilitated by the large ring. The larger rings provide a little more leverage on the poll.

Mouthpiece

Double jointed

Double jointed mouthpieces are suitable for many horses. This mouthpiece has two joints, is more shaped towards the mouth and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth. This bit exerts pressure on the tongue, the bars and the corners of the mouth. Be careful with narrow lower jaws! The joints can press on the bars with a narrow lower jaw. Compared to a single jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue.

Bit material

Stainless steel

The most common material for bits is stainless steel. Stainless steel comes in different compositions and consists of steel and various metals. Steel, in turn, is iron that has been alloyed with carbon.

To obtain stainless steel, the steel is mixed with various metals to form different alloys. The most commonly used alloy for stainless steel bits consists of steel, chromium and nickel.
