Sprenger KK Correction Bit Aurigan Mullen Mouth with Port 18mm

Sprenger KK Correction Bit Aurigan Bar with Port 18mm

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 18mm 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, draft horses, and Shire Horses usually require 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 conditions of the horse's mouth. You can test with your fingers how much space there is between the tongue and the palate.

The bit assortment from Sprenger provides soft but effective impulses for better communication between rider and horse. Today we would like to introduce you to the Sprenger KK Correction Bit Aurigan Bar with Port 18mm from the Sprenger range in more detail:

The Sprenger KK Correction Bit Aurigan Bar with Port 18mm is made of Aurigan and equipped with loose ring sides. The mouthpiece of this bit is a bar with a port.

Bit thickness

Cheekpiece

Loose ring

The loose ring has two freely moving rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Sprenger KK Correction Bit Aurigan Bar with Port 18mm is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a more "mobile" bit in their mouth.

Mouthpiece

Bars with port

The bar with port provides space for the tongue and thus reduces pressure on the center of the horse's tongue. More tongue relief is ideal for horses with sensitive tongues or horses that stick their tongues out. This bit is not suitable for inexperienced riders.

Bit material

Aurigan

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