The Sprenger Loose Ring Snaffle Bit Sensogan Single Jointed 16mm is made of Sensogan and equipped with loose rings as side pieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed.

Bit thickness

The bit is 16mm thick, measured at the thickest point in the area of the horse's lips. It is therefore a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparison values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold bloods and Shires Horses rather 18mm and larger.

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 palate.

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

Manufacturer information

Sprenger

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

Mouthpiece

single jointed

The single-jointed mouthpiece has a hinge in the middle, which exerts less pressure on the tongue than a double-jointed mouthpiece. A single-jointed mouthpiece mainly 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.

Side piece

Loose Ring

The loose ring bit is a very commonly used bit. The rings of the Sprenger Loose Ring Snaffle Bit Sensogan Single Jointed 16mm cannot move independently of each other, so that the rider's aids are transmitted directly and the bit lies stably in the horse's mouth. In addition, this side piece does not pinch the corners of the horse's mouth, so rubber bit guards are not necessary.
