The bit series from Nathe provides gentle but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. We would like to introduce you to the Nathe Snaffle Bit 18 mm double jointed, with SENSOGAN center piece from the Nathe range in more detail today:

The Nathe Snaffle Bit 18 mm double jointed, with SENSOGAN center piece is made of plastic and equipped with loose ring snaffle cheek pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 18 millimeters at its thickest point. This makes it a rather medium-strength mouthpiece.

Comparison values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-blooded horses and Shires Horses rather 18mm and larger.

When choosing 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 the palate.

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 flow.

Manufacturer information

Nathe

Nathe bits are characterized by a smooth surface, as they are made of high-quality thermoplastic. This can increase satisfaction and willingness to perform in sensitive and mouth-sensitive horses. The material is anti-allergenic, food-safe, solvent-free and contains no plasticizers. High flexibility of the mouthpiece is ensured by the temperature-neutral properties of thermoplastic.

Mouthpiece

double jointed

Double jointed mouthpieces are suitable for many horses. This mouthpiece has two joints, is shaped more 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. This bit should not be used for horses with narrow lower jaws. The joints can press on the bars with a narrow lower jaw. The double jointed bit exerts more pressure on the tongue compared to single jointed bits.

Cheek piece

Loose ring snaffle

A loose ring characterizes a snaffle bit. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Nathe Snaffle Bit 18 mm double jointed, with SENSOGAN center piece is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
