Nathe Gag Bit 20 mm with Flexible Bar

Nathe Full Cheek Snaffle Bit 20 mm with Flexible Bar

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 20 millimeters at its thickest point, making it a rather 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, cold-blooded horses, and Shire Horses usually need a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

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

Bit Thickness

Sidepiece

Full Cheek Snaffle Bits

The full cheek snaffle bit lies very quietly and stably in the mouth. It provides reliable lateral support without the risk of pinching the skin and lips due to the angled cheekpieces. This bit is suitable for horses that need clear lateral support and guidance when turning.

Mouthpiece

Straight Bar Bits

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

Bit Material

Plastic

Food-grade plastic is used for bits, meaning 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 flow.
