Sprenger Flex Control Sensogan Single Jointed 18mm

Sprenger Flex Control Sensogan Single Jointed Bit 18mm

The bit is 18mm thick, measured at the thickest part in the area of the horse's commissures. It is therefore a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, draught horses and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

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.

The Sprenger development team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and effectiveness of the bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Sprenger Flex Control Sensogan single jointed 18mm bit from the Sprenger range in more detail:

The Sprenger Flex Control Sensogan single jointed 18mm bit is made of Sensogan and equipped with loose ring cheeks, i.e. rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed.

Bit thickness

Cheek piece

Loose ring snaffle

The loose ring snaffle has two freely moving rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Sprenger Flex Control Sensogan single jointed 18mm is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.

Mouthpiece

single jointed

The Sprenger Flex Control Sensogan single jointed 18mm has a joint in the middle, which puts less pressure on the tongue than a double jointed mouthpiece. A single jointed mouthpiece primarily applies pressure to the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. A single jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very common.

Bit material

Sensogan Copper, manganese and zinc are the components of Sprenger's Sensogan alloy. The trace element manganese has a positive effect on the horse's metabolism and stress reduction. The combination of copper and manganese results in a controlled oxidation process that promotes chewing activity. Sprenger's Sensogan bits are characterized by high compatibility.
