Nathe 3-Ring Bit 20 mm with Flexible Bar

Nathe 3-Ring Bit 20 mm with flexible mouthpiece

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20mm at its thickest point, making it a relatively thick mouthpiece.

For comparison, the standard thickness for a normal warmblood is between 16mm and 18mm. For ponies, this value is usually between 10mm and 14mm. Very large warmbloods, draft horses, and Shire horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

When selecting the bit thickness and size, consider the anatomical features of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to check how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

Nathe bits are selected with the utmost care and made from the most suitable materials. We would like to introduce you to the Nathe 3-Ring Bit 20 mm with flexible mouthpiece from the Nathe range in more detail today:

The Nathe 3-Ring Bit 20 mm with flexible mouthpiece is made of plastic and equipped with 3-ring side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The hardness of the mouthpiece material is rather soft, i.e., flexible.

Bit thickness

Side piece

3-Ring

The three-ring bit combines effective lateral limitation, leverage, and a lifting action in one bit. The degree of impact is chosen by the various rein attachment options. When attached to the lower ring, the pulling rein exerts the effect of a short lever on the bit. The 3-ring bit is often used to test the horse's reaction to leverage.

Mouthpiece

Straight bar bits

A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical features of the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit material

Plastic

Food-grade plastic is used for bits, which means no plasticizers are used, and it is well-tolerated by horses. The particularly smooth texture ensures that the bit can glide easily in the mouth, even with little saliva production.
