Loose Ring Snaffle

A freely moving ring characterizes a loose ring snaffle. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Sprenger Weymouth Bit Sensogan 16mm is therefore a bit for horses that prefer a more "mobile" bit in their mouth.

Mouthpiece

Straight Bar Bits

A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper effect than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

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