Sprenger Dynamic RS Loose Ring Snaffle Aurigan 14mm Single Jointed

Sprenger Dynamic RS Weymouth Bradoon Aurigan 14mm Single-Jointed

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 14 millimeters at its thickest point. It is therefore a medium-strength 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-bloods, and Shire Horses usually require a bit thicker than 18mm. A thickness of 12mm is usually suitable for a pony.

Bradoons for Weymouth bits usually have a thickness of 12mm to 14mm.

When choosing the bit strength 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 the palate.

The Sprenger team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Sprenger Dynamic RS Weymouth Bradoon Aurigan 14mm single-jointed from the Sprenger range in more detail:

The bit Sprenger Dynamic RS Weymouth Bradoon Aurigan 14mm single-jointed is made of Aurigan and features smaller side pieces as a bradoon for Weymouth bits. The mouthpiece of this bit is single-jointed.

single-jointed

The single-jointed mouthpiece has a hinge in the middle, which exerts less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and the sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. A single-jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very widely used. Bradoon

The bradoon is used in combination with a Weymouth bit. It is available in single and double-jointed mouthpiece variations. The difference to other snaffles lies in the rings (e.g. eggbutt rings), which are significantly smaller than the rings of normal bits. The bradoon is usually chosen half to a full cm larger than the Weymouth, as the Weymouth is a curb bit and the bradoon is jointed.

Bit material

Aurigan

Aurigan consists of 85% copper, silicon, and zinc. To keep copper nickel-free, more complex working steps are necessary, which makes the material more expensive, which is why Sprenger's Aurigan bits are higher priced than bits made of stainless steel or Argentan.
