Sprenger KK Ultra Snaffle Bit Sensogan Double Jointed 14mm with Crystal

Sprenger KK Ultra Weymouth Bradoon Sensogan Double-Jointed 14mm with Crystal

The bit is 14mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. It is therefore a medium-thick mouthpiece.

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

Weymouth bradoons usually have a thickness of 12mm to 14mm.

When choosing the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical features 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 products to further optimize the design and function of bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Sprenger KK Ultra Weymouth Bradoon Sensogan Double-Jointed 14mm with Crystal from the Sprenger range:

The bit Sprenger KK Ultra Weymouth Bradoon Sensogan Double-Jointed 14mm with Crystal is made of Sensogan and equipped with smaller side pieces as a bradoon for Weymouth bits. The mouthpiece of this bit is double-jointed.

Sidepiece

Mouthpiece

double-jointed

The double-jointed mouthpiece is one of the most common mouthpieces on the market. This mouthpiece has two joints, is more shaped 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 on narrow lower jaws. The hinge points can press on the bars, which can lead to sores. Compared to a single-jointed bit, this bit exerts more pressure on the tongue. Bradoon

The bradoon is used in combination with a Weymouth bit. It is available as 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 bit, as the Weymouth bit is a solid bar and the bradoon is jointed.

Bit material

Sensogan

The Sensogan material mix consists of copper, manganese and zinc. 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 metered oxidation process that promotes chewing activity. Sprenger's Sensogan bits are characterized by high compatibility.
