Nathe Straight Bar Bit 20 mm Normal, with Tongue Relief

Nathe Straight Bar Bit 20 mm normal, with Tongue Relief

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 require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

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

A freely moving ring characterizes a loose ring snaffle. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Nathe Straight Bar Bit 20 mm normal, with Tongue Relief is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.

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 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 low saliva production.
