Sprenger KK Ultra D-Ring Snaffle Bit, Double Jointed, Sensogan 15mm

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 15 millimeters at its widest point, making it a medium-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-bloods, 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.

Sprenger bits are carefully selected and made from the best materials. Today, we would like to introduce you to the Sprenger KK Ultra D-Ring Snaffle Bit, Double Jointed, Sensogan 15mm from the Sprenger range in more detail:

The bit Sprenger KK Ultra D-Ring Snaffle Bit, Double Jointed, Sensogan 15mm is made of Sensogan and equipped with D-shaped rings as cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is double jointed.

Bit Thickness

Cheekpiece

D-Ring

Due to its characteristics, this bit is wonderful for young horses that are still a bit inexperienced, as the shape and weight of the side pieces ensure a calm and comfortable position in the mouth. Due to the shape of the D-shaped rings, optimal lateral stability is provided. Good and quiet rein guidance is facilitated by the large ring. The larger rings provide a bit more leverage on the poll.

Mouthpiece

Double Jointed

Double jointed mouthpieces are suitable for many horses. This mouthpiece has two hinges, is shaped more towards the mouth, and lies a bit looser in the horse's mouth. This bit applies pressure to the tongue, the bars, and the corners of the mouth. This bit should not be used with narrow lower jaws. The hinge points can press on the bars, which can lead to sores. The double jointed bit applies more pressure to the tongue compared to single jointed bits.

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 dosed oxidation process that promotes chewing activity. Sprenger's Sensogan bits are characterized by high compatibility.
