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 Turnado Loose Ring Snaffle Sensogan Single Jointed 16mm from the Sprenger range in more detail:

The Sprenger Turnado Loose Ring Snaffle Sensogan Single Jointed 16mm is made of Sensogan and equipped with loose ring cheekpieces. The mouthpiece of this bit is single jointed.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its widest point, making it a rather medium-thick mouthpiece.

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

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.

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 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 it's boat fittings, stirrups, or bridles. H.S. Sprenger is one of the most famous manufacturers in the equestrian, dog, and boating sports industries. 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

The single-jointed mouthpiece has a hinge in the middle, which applies less pressure to 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. A single-jointed mouthpiece is an absolute standard mouthpiece and very widely used.

Cheekpiece

Loose Ring Snaffle

The loose ring snaffle has two freely moving rings at each end. A movable ring means greater mobility of the bit in the mouth. The Sprenger Turnado Loose Ring Snaffle Sensogan Single Jointed 16mm is therefore ideal for beginners and horses that are somewhat inactive in the mouth.
