The Sprenger novocontact Loose Ring Snaffle Bit 14 mm Single Jointed - Sensogan is made of Sensogan and equipped with loose rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 14 millimeters at its widest point, making it a rather 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-blooded horses 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 the palate.

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.

The family-run business has existed since 1872 and specializes in metal processing, be it boat fittings, stirrups or bridles. H.S. Sprenger is one of the most famous manufacturers in the equestrian, dog and boating sports sectors. The company stands for high quality standards and innovation. Examples include the development of the metal alloys Aurigan and Sensogan, which are used for their bits.

Mouthpiece

Single jointed

A single jointed bit has one hinge point, which puts less pressure on the tongue than a double jointed mouthpiece. A single jointed mouthpiece primarily exerts pressure on the bars and sides of the tongue and can also affect the palate. The single jointed mouthpiece is the most popular mouthpiece on the market.

Cheek Piece

Loose Ring Snaffle Bit

The loose ring snaffle bit has two loose rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Sprenger novocontact Loose Ring Snaffle Bit 14 mm Single Jointed - Sensogan is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
